Eden toy and body wipes - wipes discontinued by EdenFantasys - review by mistressg

I got a pack of these wipes with my last Eden purchase. I would otherwise, not have gotten them. Personally, I prefer a bottle of spray cleaner (specifically Before & After) to wipes. Wipes create more waste and often cost a fair amount, and a little bit of spray goes a long way for the same price. But the difference between my beloved Before&After and these wipes is that the spray is just for cleaning toys, whereas these wipes are for cleaning toys AND can be used as body wipes!

Since I didn't have to worry about the cost, I had two things I was curious about with this product- 1. would they smell nice? (always a worry when buying scented products online) and, 2. Would they be irritating to my skin (much less, in very sensitive areas of my skin)? Also, being that I noticed Tea Tree Oil as an ingredient, I wondered if they would smell heavily of tea tree oil. Not that don't like that smell, but I wasn't sure what I was in for, and tea tree can be quite pungent.

The ingredients: Water, Chlorhexidine, Glycerin, Aloe Extract, Vitamin E, Tea Tree Oil.

Before I get into discussing the wipes, there is a date on the back of the package! IT IS NOT AN EXPIRATION DATE. I was worried, apparently it is the PACKAGING date. So not to worry! If the date is behind, then they are not old!

First thing about them - the smell. They have a light, clean smell. They do not smell of tea tree oil. If anything, they smell more like aloe. They sort of have a light, hand lotion scent. I know some one who used to use a Vaseline brand hand lotion and it smelled a lot like this. Not overpowering, not flowery or perfumey. They are not greasy. Not irritating to the skin. They are soft, and nice. Basically, like baby wipes.

If you have sensitive skin, I would say don't go straight to using these on any sensitive areas simply because you may have an allergy to tea tree oil, which can affect some peoples skin adversely. In fact, even if you don't have sensitive skin - if you are not sure if you have an allergy to tea tree oil OR aloe, test them anyway. Better safe than sorry! They did not irritate my skin, or my lady parts (thankfully)! They worked great at cleaning the glass toy I cleaned (but glass is easy to clean). And I used them on 2 bullets I have, one plastic, one metal - and they worked really well. They clean the toys, and don't leave a strong smell behind, or stickiness, or anything that could be bad. They are nice on the skin, and leave a light scent behind, but the scent doesn't stay long (which is not a problem).

I would have given them 5 stars, but since they are $8 for 10 wipes, they aren't really worth it for me. But since they were free, not bad. If they were cheaper, or better yet - if there were more in a package for the same price that would be great. Also, I would love it if the packaging and the wipes themselves were biodegradable. I would LOVE them, actual, in that case. I like that 8oz of spray can last a while, and that a bottle is the only waste it creates really. Whereas with these wipes, you have the plastic packaging, and the 10 wipes. Which may not seem like much, but it adds up.

These wipes are handy, though. They are a good product for anyone. Pretty discreet, could just be regular baby wipes for all anyone knows. Buying a pack to keep in your purse for an after-quicky-clean-up sounds like a good idea! In that case, maybe even a worthwhile investment (for me anyway, since I don't think I would be using them too often if those were the circumstances). They are great for travel, great to keep in your bag, the package isn't terribly big (6 3/4" x 7 1/2").

They are quick, convenient, and great to have on hand. As I said, quickies, or you are too lazy/cozy/basking in sex glow to get up and clean your toys with water, these are great. And I think they would be good on pretty much any material I can think of. If you don't plan on using them on a regular basis, then I would say go for it!

I haven't used all of them yet (as my Before & After spray is my go-to cleaner), but I still like them. If it came in a larger quantity, that might encourage me to use them more often, without fear of running out.
