by JustAlexThings1 from Gentle & Clean
I love these for my 9 month nephew that I babysit once every weekend, super gentle and does the job with a very clean and fresh scent! I even use it on myself when I need to wipe off makeup or sweat and doesn't break me out or cause any redness. Definitely recommend.

by Mommabear4 from Free and clean baby wipes
The Huggies wipes are 99% water and free of fragrance and harsh chemicals. I felt great using these on sensitive baby skin. They're thick and durable for wiping. There's no scent at all, which is important to me. They don't irritate my baby's skin and do they're job better than expected. These are great if you want to have purity and nothing irritating on your baby's skin.

by crystalball8 from My new favorite wipe!
I'm in love with these wipes! They are thicker than your typical wipes so not mess on your hands especially during those diaper blowouts. The size is perfect. It's fragrance-free and leaves no streaks or residue. The ingredient list is 7 items. My little one has sensitive skin and these wipes do not irritate her bottom at all. I highly recommend these wipes. I like the packaging. The lid opens from right to left and actually stays open which makes it easy to pull wipes out one-handed.

by Cindy4 from Really soft on baby. No complaints!
My baby who is now 5 months old occasionally has diaper rash so I'm very mindful of the wipes I use on her. These were great and it did not irritate her. It was soft and it did not have any strong scent, which I loved. I have it given a 4 star only because the packaging is not great. The sides tore off while I was trying to rip off the opening so I had tape it around.

by Scribbles10 from Great Quality I am so happy with Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes that I am seriously considering switching to them from my current favorite brand! They are sturdy and thick but soft and gentle. My only criticism is that they could be a little damper. My favorite thing is that the wipes easily pull apart from one another when removing from the packaging, and my husband appreciated this too! I received a free sample through Home Tester Club.

These wipes are my new favorite! I’ve always been a Huggies wipes fan but these are much thicker than some of the others! I’ve always bought the Huggies natural care and those are great also but these are thicker and softer. I'll be buying these from now on.

by Gigi4 from Non toxic wipes I received this as a gift from hometester club. My 8 month old was happy with these wipes. Compared to Pampers, they are much easier to pull out from the packaging one by one. They don’t get stuck together. No redness on babies skin, these are very good quality.

by sushi3 from Gentle and Effective
These wipes are a win for gentle, effective cleaning without any irritation. They're are soft and durable, making them perfect for sensitive skin without tearing or needing multiple layers for a good clean. I noticed that they’re thicker than some other brands, which gives me confidence that one or two wipes are usually enough for the job. Plus, the moisture is just right—not too wet or too dry—so they leave skin feeling refreshed rather than sticky. Like all unscented products, these wipes have a subtle, clean scent that’s barely noticeable and free from heavy perfumes, which I really appreciate. It’s a bonus that they’re hypoallergenic and free of parabens, alcohol, and dyes, making them especially suitable for daily use. I also love the resealable packaging; it keeps the wipes fresh, and the sturdy closure means they’re less likely to dry out. For anyone looking for a gentle and effective wipe for kids or even for personal use, Huggies Skin Essentials is a solid choice.

Huggies Skin Essentials are as natural as can be at 99% water. Appreciate that they are fragrance free and found them to be a good thickness for baby diaper changes. Also keep a pack in the car for hands and freshening up on a busy day. Another good baby wipe from Huggies! I recommend these wipes and will buy again.

by Jane7 from My New Go To Baby Wipes!!!
As a mom, I’m always cautious about what I use on my baby’s skin, and Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes have been an absolute game-changer for us! They're 99% water, which means no harsh chemicals or anything that could irritate my little one's sensitive skin. I love that they’re dermatologist-approved and even accepted by the National Eczema Association—such a reassuring bonus. These wipes are noticeably thicker, which makes clean-up so much easier, and the fact that they’re pH balanced really helps keep my baby's skin soft and healthy. The light pattern texture on the wipe is cute but actually helps to pick up extra mess. I like to use both sides of the baby wipe, and the thicker formula ensures I don't have to worry about anything that. I always do a little pull test to see how they hold up and these did not disappoint! Plus, they’re fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, so I never have to worry about unwanted reactions. Cute packaging! Truly, Huggies has thought of everything with these!

by Pen229 from Great Hypoallergenic Wipe
I love that Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes are gentle on my children’s skin. They are made with 99% water and no fragrances, phthalates, paraben or alcohol. I find the wipes to be soft and moist and great for cleaning up a wet diaper. For bowel movements, the wipes could use a bit more texture to help clean up the mess more easily. Overall it’s a great wipe for those with sensitive skin.

Thick and soft wipes. I’ve been looking for a replacement for the Costco Kirkland baby wipes, which had been a staple for us for a long time, until it was exposed to have chemicals that’s harmful to babies. Glad that I found this one, fragrance free, just as thick and soft, and reasonably priced. I’m very glad to find this.

While they may not be the thickest wipes on the market, they're strong enough to handle any mess. Overall, Huggies Essentials are a practical and gentle choice for everyday use.
