Wet Ones Cooling Zesty Moist Wipes > Reviews (2)

I would never have thought about buying Wet Ones before, I actually received a couple packets for free and that is how I have ended up having these. It was over a year when I got these and so now can't remember how I got them for free, although I do remember receiving them through the post.

I got three travel-sized packets, each containing 12 wipes. They are the green packets which represent the lemon & lime scent of the wipes. You can also get scented free ones, unisex and cooling scented, and rose petal scented ones. I have never tried any of the others but when I do get round to purchasing another packet, I will probably get the rose scented wipes, as the lemon & lime ones are a bit too strong and sickly smelling to me.

These wipes kill 99.9% of bacteria and are meant to be used for your hands, although I have found many other uses for them such as cleaning up spilt drinks in the cup holder in my car! I kept a packet of these in my car and they came in very handy as I had a slow puncture in one of my tyres last year, so until I could afford a new tyre I just had to keep putting air in every couple of weeks or so, and this can make your hands get very dirty! I would use these wipes to clean my hands after.

I soon ran out of them and it wasn't until recently when I went to blow my tyres up that I needed one again and remembered I had another packet lying in my house somewhere, and so they are now back in my car.

The packet has a label on the front of it which you peel back to get the wipes out. The whole label can easily slide off though so I have to be careful it sticks back down properly or else the wipes will dry out. The wipes themselves are very moist, but do not leave your hands soaking, like I thought they would when I first pulled one out of the packet. In fact it was quite the opposite, and my hands dried very quickly.

I have not noticed any difference in the softness of my hands after using these. They simply just clean my hands. I don't need to scrub my hands with these wipes to get any muck off, it comes off fairly easily and quickly.

When I have ran out I will buy another packet for my car, as they come in very handy, and even if you don't own a car, they could be kept in your handbag, you never know when you may need one! These are priced at £1.32 on Superdrug, but you can also get these from many other retailers such as Boots and Asda.

I give this product 4 stars because they do their job perfectly, the only downfall is that if the label is not seeled back down properly (and it can easily come off) the wipes will dry out.
