Very reminder: wipes are not a universal disinfectant

March 23, 2021

Core Tip: Carrying Disinfectant Wipes with you, not only eliminates the hassle of washing your hands, but also disinfects them. Wiping tables and chairs, wiping hands, and even wiping the private parts..., the wipes seem to have become "universal towels." However, is the wipe really omnipotent?

At present, all kinds of Wet Wipes on the market with different purposes and different uses can be classified into two categories. One is a common wet wipe that is disinfected by itself but cannot disinfect other items. It contains skin care ingredients and can only be used for skin moisturizing and maintenance. . The other type is a disinfectant wipe that not only is itself sterilized, but also sterilizes other items. Generally, disinfection or bactericidal ingredients are indicated on the package.

Disinfecting Wipes can be used to clean hands, wipe tables and chairs, and clean hands before and after meals, or without water and soap, but their effects are limited to this. Because some of the ingredients contained in the disinfectant wipes also have an effect on the human body, such as chlorine, bleaching powder, alcohol, etc., these ingredients will not be marked on the package, but will irritate the skin, mucous membranes, eyes, and damage the sebum film that protects the skin. Frequent use will make the skin dry. Therefore, it cannot be used to directly rub the eyes, wounds, and private parts.

Most women's care wipes have added sterilized drug ingredients, claiming that they can clean the privacy of the site, avoid bacterial growth, and refresh and avoid taste. But it is not recommended for women to use it. Although it can play a bacteriostatic role to a certain extent, it does not sterilize, but it will break the original acid-base balance in women and cause various gynecological diseases.

Your baby's skin is very delicate, so Baby Wipes are more demanding than adult wipes. Baby wipes are divided into regular wipes (wiping the buttocks) and hand wipes. Alcohol, flavor, preservatives, fluorescent agents, etc. should not be added to baby wipes, but they should not be taken lightly. Especially for babies who love to eat their hands, they can't wipe their hands frequently with wet wipes. They can be wiped with gauze or towel and warm water.

When purchasing wet wipes, be aware that high-quality wipes have a soft fragrance without any pungent odor, while inferior wipes have a noticeable pungent odor. In general, high-quality wet wipes are mostly made of non-woven fabric, the texture is soft and white, no impurities, and the inferior wet wipes will have obvious impurities. In use, high-quality wet wipes do not fluff, and inferior wet wipes have obvious fluffing, which is irritating to the skin and tends to cause itching. If the skin has itchy or painful feeling after use, stop using it immediately. Before buying a baby wipe, you can try it on the back of your hand to see if there is any obvious alcohol irritation.
