Pampers wipes question

Hi

What's the difference between Pampers sensitive, new baby sensitive and natural clean wipes?

There seems to be very little on the packaging to indicate any significant difference. Why all the subtle variations, are they just to confuse consumers? I have bought water wipes and cotton wool pads for the imminent arrival, but wanted to try other brands claiming to be as "mild as cotton wool and water" for out and about.

Greetings.

It's just words. Until they show a benefit using a double-blind trial, assume all their wipes are more or less the same.

IMHO, nothing beats plain lukewarm water, half of a cotton-wool pleat (bigger area per wipe) and applying no pressure when you're wiping. When out-and-about, we have had no problems with Johnson's Baby Extra Sensitive Wipes (Fragrance Free) and Tesco's Fragrance Free Baby Wipes.

Now, if someone could invent a pack whereby I could remove one wipe at a time... THAT I would pay for.

Thanks for the response.

Pampers used to do plastic wipes dispensers (free with purchase) which were pretty good at dispensing one wipe at a time, so much so that sometimes the following wipe would stay in the packet and you'd have to open the thing up to rethread!
