Great for My Sensitive Skin
Though these wipes can leave a very slight "sticky" feeling at first, when the Chlorhexidine evaporates the skin is left soft and clean. I definitely recommend them to anyone interested in trying something a little more on the adult side of the wipes market.Published: October 8, 2011
Pros:
Soft, No Odor, Convenient
Cons:
Cost
The Eden Fantasys wet wipes are practical. And pricey, coming in at fifty cents per wipe. For cost comparison, I looked up a few different brands of baby wipes for sensitive skin. Per unit, most brands came in at three cents per wipe. That's a huge difference.
The downside to purchasing baby wipes is they don't travel well. You have to purchase a second, smaller container for five or ten wipes then drop that into your purse or glove compartment. Most baby wipes are also larger than your average hand wipe or makeup remover towelette, thus it is difficult to be discreet. So, that's all kind of a hassle in and of itself. And imagine the awkward conversation that ensues when a potential hook-up asks you how old your kid is. As you stumble over yourself to say that you, in fact, do not have children, he is forced to admit he was looking at the contents of your bag while he was waiting to get your attention and saw the baby wipes.
Eden's wipes solve all of those problems in one fell swoop. The packet of wipes is not any bigger than your average makeup remover wipe and can easily be hidden in the inner pocket of your purse or a smaller pocket of a carrying case of any kind.
The Eden wipe is approximately 7 inches by 7 inches. This is a large enough surface area to be able to wipe the toy or body part of your choice, fold in half and wipe again. The towelette is really quite plush and soft against the skin. There is no discernible odor other than "clean". It just smells neutral, and not of soap or chemicals. I took one of the wipes out the package as I sat down to write this review about fifteen minutes ago; it is still moist to the touch. When I first removed it from the package it was wet, but not overly wet to the point of dripping off the edges.
The packaging is quite handy as well. It is a resealable foil packet with the ingredients clearly marked, the date of manufacture, and little tidbits about Eden's website. It does have the word "sex" up front and center, nestled between the Eden logo and the pull-tap to open and seal the package.
While these are great for a quick clean up, I still would not substitute them for sterilizing my boilable toys and using condoms on porous/shared toys.
The ingredients are:
Water, Chlorhexidine, Glycerin (tsk, tsk), Vitamin E, Tea Tree Oil

Experience
I really like the way these feel against my skin. There doesn't seem to be any problem with the glycerin, so far. I found these are really helpful for clean up during my cycle. I did not experience any burning or discomfort of any kind, which was a nice change from other brands of wipes I've used in the past. It must be the lack of alcohol! They stay relatively cool to the touch and are soothing after a long session.
I think these wipes are the answer to all of the traditional problems with body wipes, minus the cost. The cost is going to end up being a deterrent for me in the long run. I would go through a pack every week and a half, if I've done the math correctly.

Follow-up commentary
3 months after original review
I try to grab a pack with every order when I remember to; I've been using them for everything from wiping up spills on the bathroom counter to freshening up the vag during shark week. They also remove my eye make up pretty well when in a pinch.

Eden Wipes - FYI: date on back of package is made on date, NOT expiration date
-
I just received my first package of these, and was confused at first, at why they sent me wipes that expired in november. However, I looked for threads about this subject, and there already several that state this is the MANUFACTURE DATE. I just wanted to make it easier for everyone to see this information. Also, someone has stated they expire 3 years from the manufacture date. Please feel to verify this information as well.
-
I believe that is the info going around about these. I know there were alot of confused people at first, but I think we got it all figured out. Thank you for confirming it though.

Toy/Body wipes good for... lady parts?
-
I was just wondering if these wipes would be good for using on your lady parts as part of your after-fun-times clean up routine?
I'm trying to get better at cleaning myself up afterwards instead of just being lazy. Normally, I'll just get up and wipe with a tissue or toilet paper, but I feel like I could be doing more to clean up. -
I use the wipes down there quite frequently. I use them after play, when I'm on my period, and whenever I feel the need to. They're really handy.

Is this ok to use with fleshlight?
-
If I use this on a fleshlight, will it damage it or safe to use?
-
I am curious to this answer as well!
-
I don't have a fleshlight but, I've used this product on many types of toys with no issues. The only thing is that these are a bit expensive for just a few wipes and they are small.

Toy wipes vs. wet wipes
-
Are toy wipes safer/preferable to something like a general wet wipe? Can I use wet wipes on my toys without damaging them?
-
Quote: Are toy wipes safer/preferable to something like a general wet wipe? Can I use wet wipes on my toys without damaging them?I was asking about that in another thread here. See if there's any helpful information there. You might try comparing ingredients on some toy wipes vs. random wet wipes.
I don't have a definitive answer, though. -
Definitely depends on the toy, but I think general wet wipes are probably fine for toys that you clean with just soap and water. I used to buy wet wipes at the drug store that were "sensitive skin formula" or "hands and face" or something like that to try and reduce the amount of unsafe chemicals in them, and I'd always look at the ingredients list. But I've used general wet wipes on my hard plastic toys with no problems.

UNscented option?
-
I've been looking for a wipe like the Eden toy and body wipes--but I can't stand scents. Please produce an unscented version!
-
Unscented baby wipes? I hardly notice the scent on the eden wipes, though.
-
I agree with Elnoa, I hardly notice the scent at all unless I'm purposely trying to smell for it.

Larger pack?
-
I wonder if they will make them in a larger pack soon. The ten pack does not seem like it is enough.
-
I have noticed them in the free gift section.Personally, I would rather have the free shirt!

volume

Do these come in a large volume package so maybe the price will shrink per sheet?
