Advantages: Texture, smell, efficency and packet Disadvantages: Can be pricey. Packaging is not biodegradable.
...for a cheaper alternative to Johnsons but were shocked to realise that 2 of the supermarket ‘own brands’ we looked at contained alcohol. The wipes are ph balanced so they are not to acidic or base to dry or irritate skin. Johnsons claim that they are as mild as pure water and can be used from top to toe on a baby. While we have found this to be true, I would still recommend that parents do a patch test first to ensure that their child does not take ...

Advantages: Soft, efficient, hypo-allergenic. Disadvantages: More costly than plain old soap, not bio-degradable.
Some fool (uncle) bought Kieran a Real Army Camouflage Make Up Stick for his birthday. Some fool (father) took both my sons to bed last night without checking their persons for secreted forbidden contraband. Some fool (me) didn't make breakfast as soon she heard them wake and start playing in their bedroom this morning, but snuck an extra hour in bed instead.
There isn't much Real Army Camouflage Make Up Stick left. It is on faces, hands, arms, ...

Advantages: Current special offer, smell, softness Disadvantages: Not as thick or absorbent as Huggies, wastage
...run are you?
I also find Johnsons wipes to be extremely slimy to the touch, this is more than likely down to the fact they are impregnated with Johnson's baby lotion but it is rather annoying when the mess you are cleaning is wet enough anyway. With my kids I am actually past (well almost) the dirty nappy stage. The twins do still use them, or rather I do, to wipe their bottoms after they have used the loo but mainly they are used for cleaning ...

Johnson's baby extra care baby wipes with aloe and willowherb, the one thing that I hated about the Johnson's wipes was that overpowering smell, this meant that even if they were giving them away I couldn't take them home .
Yesterday I found these new wipes on special, £1.99 in Safeway instead of £2.99, so me in desperate need of wipes thought I would give Johnson's another chance and I am glad I did.
I don't seem to get through many wipes these ...

Advantages: Smell, softness, effective Disadvantages: None really they are a must
...Thank goodness for these wipes. Johnsons have been one of many players in the baby wipe business. Someone has thought of taking sheets of linen cloth, impregnating them with a pleasant smelling moisturising lotion, Johnsons in this case, and selling them in handy plastic packs to mothers everywhere to help with keeping babies bottoms clean. By making them out of thin and therefore pliable cloth and impregnating them with a lotion that cuts through ...

Advantages: Good for the LONG SUFFERING PARENT Disadvantages: Can hurt Le bab
...you can whip out your Johnsons Baby Wipes and wipe their fingers and faces, knowing full well that you can wipe as hard as you like and inflict real, well earned pain unde rthe simple guise of making sure your charge is bright and fresh as a new pin (Are new pins really that clean and fresh?) They can't onbject because you can cheerfully come out with "Well, you will eat sweets" or "Mummy says I've got to".
Alternatively you can fold your Johnsons ...

Advantages: Cheap, have many uses, lovely baby smell Disadvantages: none!
Here I am, sat waiting for my Ebay auction to finish (I'm selling), the price having gone way above my expectations, so though I would write my first op that I've written in absolute ages!
So why have I chosen to write about baby wipes?? After all, my son is hardly a baby anymore, he'll be 8 in Oct and I certainly don't plan on having any more!
Well, they're just so handy and convenient!
I was thinking a couple of weeks ago about that fairly ...

Poo be gone Review ofJohnsons Baby Wipesby
vk-dream
Advantages: No more poo'ey fingers Disadvantages: having to pay for them
I first came across Johnson's baby wipes after the birth of my son, in the hospital I was given a Bounty Overnight Gift Pack which had a full, new packet of the Johnson's Aloe Vera Wipes which was a touch of luck as I'd forgotten to pack any wipes for my stay in hospital.
Alas, I'm not going to write about the Johnson's Aloe Vera, for this review I shall write about the original Johnson's baby skincare wipes.
Whilst walking around Tesco one day ...

Advantages: kind to skin Disadvantages: more costly
When the non-smiling end of your baby emits a drmatic noise and an equally dramatic smell, you may pale in terror. You may reach for baby wipes and arm yourself as you advance on the dire contents of the latest nappy. The problem with some wipes is that they don't all make cleaning easier and some can irritate little bottms, making nappy rash worse.
I've worked my way round a lot of brands in the last few months - between the freebies and the random ...

Advantages: Cheap and effective Disadvantages: people think you're pregnant.....
I used to use 'proper' facial cleansing wipes like Nivea and Garnier Synergie until I realised I was wasting my money. They cost maybe 4 pounds for 25 wipes and if you use them morning and night it really adds up. I'd watched the adverts for Johnson & Johnson baby lotion and seen how it it also suitable for removing make up and cleansing, and I figured that if the lotion worked for this then the wipes which contain the exact same lotion should aswell. ...

Advantages: They smell lovely, just the right amount of lotion and sensitive to baby's skin Disadvantages: More expensive than some brands
Johnson’s Baby wipes are slightly more expensive than their competitors brands are but I can honestly say that I try not to use any others unless I really have to. We have tried several different brands including boots and Babies R Us own brands but none of them come anywhere close to the quality of Johnson’s.
They are of a good thickness and, unlike some wipes, there is not too much lotion in them. This is great because some wipes ...

Advantages: soft Disadvantages: wet at the bottom of the pack
You cant beat Johnsons babywipes for the quality and value for money. When you try to save yourselves a few pence buy buying other brands of baby wipes you find that your not really saving money as the other brands tend to be smaller (particularly Tesco's own) and not as thick and so you use twice as many, Johnson's babywipes are also the only ones to have there no more tears formula baby lotion on them so there safe to use on the face.

Advantages: soft and smooth Disadvantages: quite expensive
Johnson's baby wipes, as all brands, come in 2 varieties cloth and paper. Just forget about the paper ones straight away as these are far too rough to be used as a multi purpose wipe to head to toe clean your baby.
Johnson's cloth wipes come in pink packaging and there are 80 in a pack, and dependant upon where you purchase them several multibuy format may be available - buy these as it will bring the price back to what single pack own label products.

There is a resealable sticky label on the top of the packet so you can extract the wipes and they are pop-up wipes to make it even easier to extract them. Pop-up means that when you have pulled one wipe out of the pack another one will be sticking out of the packet waiting ...

I have been using Johnson's baby wipes for three years now since the birth of my first child and I dont know where I would be without them. I have tried all the others, Pampers too soapy, boots own tears easily, Huggies don't even go there although I love there nappies and several other shop's own brand.I even used them when my toddler was out of nappies they are great to have handy in the car for spills and sticky fingers. I use them all round the ...
