When I think of all the chemicals in products for babies and children, I cringe. I admit when our son was born 10 years ago I had no clue about chemicals in these products, but the more children we had the more I educated myself about products for children. You have to ask yourself, “why would chemicals be needed in products like baby wipes. Wouldn’t water be sufficient for those messy diaper changes?”
WaterWipes is the first chemical free baby wipe!
Unlike other baby wipe brands, WaterWipes only contain 2 ingredients – 99.9% water and 0.1% grapefruit seed extract.
We previously used natural or fragrance free baby wipes to reduce our exposure to chemicals or other additives. I was not expecting WaterWipes to be anything special until I pulled out the 1st wipe. As I wiped my little one’s bottom, during her diaper change and I knew these were the wipes for us!
Babies have sensitive skin, which is also true for my baby who can break out in red splotches. When using other baby wipes she would get upset due to the irritation and her sensitivity. But when I use WaterWipes she has not fussed.
Not only are these wipes natural but they are super soft and durable. They are so durable that they do not tear when removing them from the package or when in use; which is a problem I have experienced with other many other brands.
Since the WaterWipes are chemical free, they do not have any preservatives. They have a shelf life of 15 months if unopened. So right now is the perfect time to stock up on the amazing deal that Babies “R” Us is offering – Get 2 WaterWipes 60 packs for only $6!
I have found that these wipes are not just great for diaper changes but they are convenient for many other uses too:
To wipe kids messy faces.
Turn dirty hands to clean hands.
Removing make-up.
Dusting anything!
Cleaning up spills.
Cleaning the car as you sit at a red light.
Clean dirty tables in restaurants.
Freshen up while on the go.
Cleaning glasses or sunglasses.
Wipe down cell phones.
Spot cleaning.
Cleaning a cut or wound on the go when a First Aid Kit is not handy.
Wiping dirty noses.
Cleaning leather or rubber shoes.
Removing deodorant off of dark shirts.
Toilet paper substitute.
Attach to a mop and use to clean the floor.
Clean toys.
Wipe off chalk boards, great for us teachers.
Clean dirty CD’s and DVD’s.

Love that they are chemical free! I need to pick up some of these.
If these had been around years ago, I would definitely have used them for my kids. The more chemicals we can avoid, the better.
ohhhh neat find! I can’t stand the smell of the chemically wipes and hate the feel of a layer of I don’t know what on my skin if I use them. I am going to have to give these a try.
I like chemical free not only for the babies, but for me too. It is hard to find any wipes that are free of chemicals.
same! I feel like this too. I try to make my own but they don’t hold up really, so I think these would be great!
Water wipes are amazing. We’re just transitioning to having two potty-trained kids but we still need wipes all the time.
I’m glad to see chemical-free wipes on the market! I will have to give these a try!
Love that the wipes are chemicals free. We keep a stash of wipes in the car ” just in case” and they are perfect for grimy fingers and yucky noses.
That’s a really good idea. Messes can come at any time with little ones.
I like that they don’t have chemicals so you can use them on your face when you pill ice cream.
It’s always good to have chemical free wipes .. Its less harsh on the Baby’s skin
I’d definitely want to be as safe as possible! I love all of the extra uses for these wipes.
I like them for the ‘other’ uses too. We’re long past baby wipe stage, but I still buy them.
These sound amazing. I really need to try to find them around us. I would really like to use them on my little one. I could also use them for other things too which would be great!
I really have to get some of these. They would be great
I love that these wipes don’t contain chemicals and are gentle on skin. It’s so important to know what toxins you are exposing your child’s skin to.
I love the idea of these. I’ll have to share this with my daughter.
Water wipes are great. We have used them and loved them!
I don’t have kids of my own but there are three little ones in my extended family who I spend a lot of time with. I had no idea most baby wipes had chemicals in them. So scary. – Katy
I didn’t realize it, either. It makes me shudder to think about it.
What a cutie pie in your image – and great to have chemical free wipes – my son reacted to disposable diapers and wipes – I used cloth only for him and no bleach – this would have been great then and it is now to keep handy for our cars! Thank you for sharing
I feel like now with raising kids there are so many more choices and everything is so much better for us then t was when my kids were little. Case in point, there was only two or three brands to choose from twenty years ago and I don’t think they ever even considered the chemical base or health value of wipes or a lot of other things for that matter.
I like that so many products, including this one, are really considering what they put into their products. Kudos to Waterwipes!
I haven’t tried this yet. I didn’t know that most wipes have chemicals in them. I will look for this the next time I go shopping.
I use wet-wipes for so many things! I will have to check this brand out! I love that it is chemical free!
I don’t have human kids but I would use these on my dog’s paws for sure – handy and disposable works for me.
oh boy did I need those when my daughters were born – both have such sensitive skin and still to this day has eczema.
I keep hearing great things about these water wipes. I think when it comes to babies, it’s best to go with anything that is chemical free.
We love water wipes. They have been so gentle and great for my baby’s sensitive skin
Wow, they have a great shelf life! That is a big plus for those of us that use them for other things besides baby wipes. These would be great for travel.
These sound like great wipes. I have to wipe my dogs’ feet down every time they come in from going potty. I’ll have to pick some of these up.
My Sister in law loves stuff like this for her baby. I will teller about this! I personally used wipes for cleaning kiddo when he got dirty, I love all the uses you can use wipes for!
These Water Wipes look fantastic! I try to cut down on chemical use when I can, so I will definitely keep an eye out for these.
These are such a great idea. I love to use them to clean runny noses!
I love that these only have 2 ingredients and such a long shelf life. Almost everyone in my family has sensitive skin so I need to stock up on these!
My daughter has such sensitive skin. I really need to try these.
We are expecting our first so I am gonna have to try these out I love that they are chemical free, that is important to me!
Great post & review! I like to reduce my chemical contact as much as possible. Thanks for sharing.
These are all great ways to use these wipes. I will have to look into these – I like that they are chemically free.
We use Water Wipes! They are really nice if you prefer natural products like us.
I wish I could find these around me. I have a child still in diapers and use wet wipes all the time on him, but also to wash my make up off.
Did you check the Babies R Us web-site to see if they are in your area? If not I am sure you can order them on-line.
I have heard amazing things about these wipes! I need to get my hands on some!
When my kids were babies, there was nothing like this. I love they are chemical free and safe for your babies!
These sound great. I love that they don’t have any alcohol or chemicals in them.
I absolutely love the water wipes! I have a huge collection in our pantry, and even some in our car for trips. They come in so handy for more than just changing a diaper.
Nice product, and great list of where else you can use them for those of us without kids.
My kids may be out of the baby stage, but I still use wipes while we’re out & about. & since these are chemical free, I really need to get some!
These sound like amazing wipes!! I still use wipes with my older kids, they are great for a clean up on the go for them.
These sound great. I love that there are no chemicals and they are multi use. Thank you for sharing.
Even though we do not have a baby in the house anymore, we still use wipes for lots of things. These sound great!
I need to start stocking up on wipes for my baby! Chemical free is the way to go!
This is really good, chemical free is without a doubt a huge relief! Sounds like great wipes to buy.
So awesome! I always look for better wipes since my boys have sensitive skin. I’m going to have to check out the sale at Babies R Us. Thanks!
There are so many uses for wet-wipes! I love that this brand is chemical free!
Thanks for this. Will pass on the info.
I am so glad to finally see chemical free wipes. While I do not have a little one in diapers, we keep them in the car to wipe hands. I will be looking for these for sure.
My babies had sensitive skin so I definitely had to be careful what kind of chemicals I used on them! Dealing with rashes is not pleasant!
I use wipes for really anything. They are so handy. Chemical free makes me so happy!
I love that these are safe for faces and bums alike!
I love that these are chemical free. Nowadays we have to be careful with what we use on our body.
We go through so many wipes between diapers, meals, and the pets. I’d love to stock up on these!
I would have totally used these when my kids were babies! Love that they are chemical free!
These are fantastic wipes. I am trying to reduce the amount of chemicals we are exposed to everyday. My friend uses these for her girls.
These sound like great wipes. They would be great to add to baby shower gift baskets.
This water wipes sounds really great. I love that they are chemical free and safe on skin as well. will definitely check this out, as I am going to be a mom soon in few weeks time.
I use baby wipes for so many things and I try to get the most ‘natural’ ones I can find. Glad to know about these now.
I could have used these yesterday! My toddler twins stepped in animal poop and got chocolate all over their faces within a 2 minute span!
It’s good to know that these are chemical free. I will check this out.
I had no idea that most baby wipes are with chemicals. I’m switching to this. Thanks for sharing.
We always have a pack of baby wipes in the car for on-the-go messes. You never know when you’re going to need them, and Water Wipes sound like a really great brand. Look how durable they are!
