For everyday freshness, during your period, or when travelling, Natracare certified Organic Cotton natural wipes, enriched with Calendula and Chamomile are gentle for cleansing delicate skin because we only use ingredients derived from plants and never use the harsh chemicals and damaging preservatives used in everyday wipes.
Choosing Natracare natural organic cotton intimate wipes allows you to avoid materials derived from petrochemicals, and skin irritating ingredients such as propylene glycol, phenoxyethanol, and formaldehyde releasing preservatives such as imidazolidinyl urea, which is the second most identified cosmetic preservative causing contact dermatitis according to The American Academy of Dermatology.
Almost all wet and dry wipes available today are made from polypropylene (PP) or its cousin polyolefin, materials that are derived from petroleum. The wipes are usually embossed at low temperatures in order to make the wipe appear much thicker than it actually is. In this way, embossed wipes are being sold at a higher price because marketing people determine that the consumer will think it is a better quality wipe because it is thicker, and therefore, is willing to pay more for the privilege of using even more materials that will not biodegrade. It is not how thick a wet wipe pack is that is important to Natracare, but what the wipe is made from and what chemicals it holds that can potentially damage our bodies and the environment.
Many people are now becoming concerned about the long term effects of using products that contain parabens because of the recent findings indicating a potential link to breast cancer . In the 1930’s, scientists developed something that could preserve creams. Synthetic Methyl, Ethyl and Propyl Parabens were developed from benzoic acid. Researchers from the Department of Biology and Biochemistry of Brunel University in the UK have conducted a study and found that once these parabens are in our system, they stay in there. It is estimated that 99% of all cosmetic and body care products contain some form of the paraben preservatives. Other chemicals of concern that are commonly used in feminine wet wipes, as well as baby wipes, include the following: phenoxyethanol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol (PEG), sodium lauryl sulphate, isopropyl myristate, and formaldehyde releasing preservatives such as imidazolidinyl urea. For more information about these chemicals, read health and environment issues.
Natracare Certified Organic Cotton feminine wipes with organic essential oils are free of the damaging and harsh chemicals used in other feminine intimate wipes. The ingredients we use are derived from plants and are certified organic by ICEA/IMO. Dermatologically tested on Human skin.

I've been buying and using these wipes for years because they are natural, effective, and convenient. I do wish they would come in a bulk pack with a discounted price point, as they are quite expensive. Nevertheless, I've clearly been willing to pay for the aforementioned benefits. But, I do try to buy them only when they're at a promotional price.
I was very surprised with the ones I purchased most recently, as the price was the same, but the quality is noticeably different: they are noticeably thinner, and this is very disappointing.
I hope that this isn't a permanent change, and if so, that the price will decrease!

Love these, as they are gentle, yet effective. The package is small and convenient, and stays tightly closed for the most part. I've only had a couple of instances when it hasn't stuck properly and has let some air inside, but fortunately, I caught it before the wipes dried out. I wish they also came in bulk packs for a cheaper price, perhaps in a more durable type of packaging. Still, they are less expensive on this site, especially when on sale, than at the one store in my city that I have found them at.

I don't use products around my vagina or labia area, but I have been using this after a bowel movement when I feel a bit more prone to hemorrhoids. It's great because it gives a nice clean wipe and I don't have to irritate my skin with dry toilet paper.

I have Interstitial Cystitis, pelvic floor dysfunction, and other issues. Needless to say, I'm very sensitive, and most wipes irritate me in one way or another. These wipes are great. My main complaint is that you have to buy them in expensive packs of 12. I wish this brand would make a more economical option available. I'd be willing to buy hundreds of these at once if I could save a bit of money.

These are EXCELLENT and I will continue to use them because they do not have any 'stuff' in them that irritates me, is not good for my skin, etc. I love the fact that I can put a pack in my purse when I go out; I just wish they also came in higher quantity as well. I think NatraCare is a very dependable and caring company as I have used some of their other products and have been very pleased.

This is a great product - the wipes are strong and work really well. I have a lot of allergies and was worried that this product would cause irritation but it didn't. I liked this product so much that after trying out the product, I immediately ordered more packages. Great product!

Great wipes, the best I ever used: I love the natural fresh scent, very gentle on skin, don't cause any irritation. I keep these in my drawer at the office and for travelling. At home, I have the Natracare baby wipes: less expensive, bigger pack, same scent and very gentle too.

NatraCare is a fantastic line. They offer organic and natural alternatives to the other popular products in the market that contain heavy perfumes and chemicals. It's really important for me, to have products used down below, to be completely safe! Thank you NatraCare.
