Rated 5 out of 5 by ladeeg5 from I LOVE IT These wipes are the best I've tried out of a number of brands. Strong, no weird scent, and textured enough for it to get rid of sticky messes, rather than sliding over them. My daughter has a very sensitive skin and she constantly complains but with these wipes it’s not the case anymore. I’ll definitely get this again

Rated 5 out of 5 by Redfx093 from Great Huggies wipes Some wipes have an awful smell even if they are scent free and an after smell as well. These do not which I love. Definitely a true scent free wipe. Another plus is when I pull one wipe from the package ,I don't end up pulling multiple other wipes out in the process.

Rated 4 out of 5 by AnaAL10 from Great wipes I really like these Huggies wipes . They are very absorbent and clean up the mess very well. I like that they only come out one at a time and I love the side opening cap. The only thing I did not like is that they rip very easily.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lemonbars5 from LOVE THESE WIPES I’m very happy with the Huggies Skin Essentials wipes! I used these the last couple days on my 3 month old & they performed really well. They cleaned up his mess gently & didn’t irritate his skin. They were damp but not overly so. After use I did not see a need to put on lotion, which is great. They did the job well & I’ll certainly be purchasing in the future.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sofsof9 from Amazing! New Favs Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes are a game-changer in the world of baby wipes. As a parent, I've tried countless brands, but these wipes stand out for their gentle yet effective cleaning. They're infused with aloe and vitamin E, leaving my baby's delicate skin feeling soft and moisturized. Plus, they're thick and durable, so I don't have to worry about them tearing mid-diaper change. The packaging is convenient too, with a resealable lid that keeps the wipes fresh and moist. Overall, Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes are a must-have for any parent looking for quality, gentle wipes for their little one.

I like the fact it was fragrance-free. being they are so thick i don't feel like I need multiple wipes to clean up messes. instead, I can use 2 and feel confident. the lid is easy to open but make sure it's closed so it doesn't dry out. I felt safe using these.
