The COVID-19 pandemic aroused people’s interest in disinfecting products, and anti-bacteria wet wipes are one of them. It kills bacteria, germs, and viruses. Everyone will keep a few packets in their bags, offices, and rooms. However, never leave the wet wipes in your car as they will dry up your wet wipes. Plus, there are three things you need to know before buying wet wipes.
- Fragrance: After using fragrance wet wipes, it can make your hands smell good. However, it might cause breakouts to your skin, especially for people with sensitive skin. So, fragrance-free is better for people with sensitive skin.
- Cover: The package lids play an important role in protecting the wet wipes from drying out. So, it is better to choose the one with hard plastic lead than a paper-thin lid as it often opens or tears off accidentally.
- Price: As wet wipes are essential now, choosing a bundle set or brands with more sheets per packet is better. Thus, ensure to check the total sheets of the tissue included to decide which facial tissue brand is the best buy.
