If you have a pack of wet wipes in your purse, then you definitely are a parent.

I had never used wipes in my life, until I became a mom, and ever since this boy came, i have never lived without baby wipes.

Anytime you might have to clean poop, or messy tiny face, hands and feet; sometimes even your own hands need clean-up. With small babies, anytime it can be emergency situation. Like poop emergency or just like that when baby decides to play with food or feed the table first. Or plans on getting a makeover with mom’s make up kit or colors.

I mean unexpected happens where there are babies. Our life is comparatively easier than our parents, thanks to diapers and wet wipes. And we can travel and go anywhere even with infants and toddlers, without having to worry too much.

#momlife changes us, doesn’t it! And somehow with #motherhood begins the hunt for the safest products. Trial and error is a conventional method. But we can’t experiment with little ones. And make a conscious informed choice.

On one hand diapers and wet wipes make life easy, however on other hand their biodegradable factor raises concerns. We can’t be short-sighted and neglect the nature to facilitate our convenience.

Diapers and wet wipes are a danger to environment because they take decades to decompose.

We can’t stop learning because of the fear of mess

With markets, flooding with perfumed and scented wet wipes, it’s important to choose safest and biodegradable wet wipes for your baby and nature. Since conventional wet wipes can take 10+ years to decompose, the biodegradable and eco-friendly wet wipes are more sustainable options and definitely recommended.

Few points we need to consider before buying wet wipes –

  • No harmful chemicals
  • Alcohol free
  • No fragrance or perfume
  • Biodegradable 
  • Safe for sensitive skin
