... I had no idea!

Huggies are different, although they have some plastic in them.

Just thought you might like to know!

Nothing that you just use once then bin or flush, can be accurately described as eco-friendly IMO.
Packaging, transport, manufacture, raw materials etc etc etc.
Most of them are made abroad so thats a lot of wipes miles!
Get that dressing gown/old towells cut up!

OK ladies, you have convinced. Once the current lot of wipes are used, I will not buy anymore. Dh will just have to make do with the washable ones.

Apparently - I have been informed - Huggies wipes are 70% natural fibres.

Hope this helps!
