We know baby wipes are used for baby bums, but they can be used in so many more ways. So, can you use baby wipes on your face? The answer is yes! Baby wipes can clean up messy baby faces - hello there, spaghetti dinner night - as well as our own. It’s all about finding the right wipes with the right ingredients.

We designed our wipes for the most sensitive baby skin, choosing gentle cleansing ingredients for their mild and natural properties.
