Johnson's Baby Wipes

DO NOT USE – NEVER AGAIN WORST PURCHASE RED BURN RASH THAT WONT GO AWAY After reading all these reviews I’m disgusted that such a product can still be on the market after so many have experienced this. My poor bub has been suffering for days and we just can’t seem to settle the inflammation / rash. J&J you should be ashamed. #boycotted

One use caused a terrible rash – Reluctant purchase by my husband as our regular was not available. Big mistake! I wiped my daughters face ONCE and nearly immediately a big nasty rash appears all over her face! This rash looked exactly like a superficial burn. Needless to say I threw those out. Luckily daughter is fine but I’m horrified that others are having the same experience and disgusted that J&J products are STILL causing harm. Show details

Causes long lasting, painful, itchy, red rash on some children. Both old and NEW formula! – We used these on our oldest for years without any problems, however our youngest started getting a painful/itchy red rash on her face, hands and bum which we initially assumed was an allergic reaction to something she was eating. We initially didn't realise it was the wipes due to the delay in the onset of the rash (5 to 10 mins) and the fairly… Read more

random duration (between 20mins to 2hours). We assumed she was allergic to something in her food and set about trying to isolate that. This is a product that proudly claims to be "ultra sensitive" with "Triple Baby Protection"!

After a few doctors appointments and a lot of reading online we eventually discovered that it is the Johnson's Skincare Baby Wipes that were the cause of this rash. After switching to Curash (Fragrance Free Baby) wipes the problem went away.

As a parent it fills me with horror and guilt that I let myself be misled by the claims on the packaging and was inadvertently/avoidably causing my child significant pain! No where on the packaging does it suggest that these wipes could cause this!

Note: The people claiming that it looked like burns are NOT exaggerating! On her hands it was so bad that despite our best efforts, she scratched until it bled.

pretty good – I sometimes buy johnsons and Johnsons baby wipes to soothe or clean chafing along with I use it to clean my rash and soothe my heat rash and found it to a superior product as it just works so well without leaving any residue behind / it's and excellent product to clean or soothe any minor light burn or wound / I would totally recommend the product to anyone who needs cleaning and or soothing wipes for the skin  Show reply

Using it for 4 months & it's great! – I've been using this ever since my son was born. I use these wipes especially to clean his poos and find it perfectly soft and wet for the purpose. The only drawback is that the wipes are thin and I need more of these wipes while cleaning compared to other brands. Over all, a good and safe product on babies.

Love it! – I have very sensitive skin and as soon as i touch some wipes (huggies and curash) i brake out in an itchy rash. Johnson wipes i have never had an issue with. A friend lent me a huggies wipe yesterday (just one) and im paying for it now! Cannot believe i have no issues with johnson wipes which i use a hundred time a day. Really is for sensitive skin

Pelvic Inflammation – I used this to freshen up during the day, ended up in the ER with extremely painful menstrual like cramps. I never connected the reaction to the wipes, until the THIRD time and it happened AGAIN!! Show details

Burnt my sons face and bottom – I used these wipes on my sons face and bottom. After about 3 minutes he came out in a red rash, like he had been burnt. The creases on his bottom were the worst as it looked like a raw wound. I quickly bathed him and panicked over how this could happen as the wipes claim to be safe for the face and bottom. Very dangerous product and I advise against them. Such a scary experience. Show details

Caused a red rash – Quite disappointing these wipes caused a red rash on my daughters face and she used to cry and pull away everytime I tried to wipe her each nappy change. Not a good product at all.

Absolute rubbish – Purchased because they were discounted to half price at my local IGA supermarket. Small, thin and feel very "plastic-y" and they don't clean well. Threw them in the bin. Stick to Huggies, Aldi's or Curash. Should have known better. Johnson and Johnson's you should be ashamed having this on the market. Absolute rubbish, poor quality and rip off. Don't buy them. Show details

Awful product. In my opinion, best to stick with Huggies or Aldi wipes – I bought these because they were on sale, but unfortunately I found these wipes to be very thin and not really up to the task. They also weren't that friendly to baby's skin. I ended up throwing the whole box away and going back to the store to buy Huggies wipes.

DO NOT BUY OR USE! – I bought these to use in the car and they gave by bub and I a radh instantly! They made my skin feel like it was on fire. I can't imagine the pain my poor bub was feeling. They should not be able to sell these. If you have bought them I suggest you throw them out!

Angry Red Rash – My 9-month-old girl was coming out in an angry red rash all over her face. Long story short, my wife pin pointed the Johnsons skincare baby wipes (triple baby protection) in light yellow plasic pouch/bag the potential offender. As a parent does, I then wiped my full face with a new wipe. Bingo, full facial angry rash/reaction. My wife also got the rash when applied. Take care of your babies. Be carefully with these.

Johnsons baby skincare wipes – Used this for the first time on my 5 month old whose skin went bright red immediately!! I can't believe this is for sensitive skin.. I feel awful that I didn't spot test the wipes first, I just trusted it due to it being fragrance free, sensitive and for babies.. silly me. What's on the box most definitely is NOT what's in the box. I've never… Read more

really been a fan of Johnsons but I picked up this packet whilst we were out.. my mistake.. never again.

Dont touch these. New formula gives rashes – Ive used these to remove my make up for over 10y with no issue. New formula coinsided with new size (200x150. Was previously 200x160). I got excema type rashes on my cheeks and under eyes. Used them on my 3y olds face and she had rash everywhere. Thought it was coincidence so left it 2weeks and only used huggies. Her rash went away. Mine took… Read more

a bit longer... infact have had eye rashes off and on since (around 3-4m). Tried j&j new formula again. My face took about 1/2hr to come up in a rash. My toddlers came up within a minute or two.

Discontinued use and have mot used them since.

Did try 4 packs of old stock i found in a store on myself.

The difference is huge.

Old ones are fine on our skin.

New ones leave a residue... nearly oily like. And cause very bad rashes. I should send them pcs of my daughters skin. I was horified.

I have never and will never use another j&j product after being a ling time user of these wipes. Its just not good enough.

I now stick with the thicker huggies for bottoms and curash for hands and face at meal times, cleaning and to take of my make up.

Really really bad – Would not recommend it to anyone. It says that they are fragrance free but the smell is so strong it makes me dizzy. Used them on my 9 month old because the other brand that I use was unavailable and it gave my baby rashes all over her nappy area :( I threw the whole packet out. Seriously, the smell is just unbearable.

Rashes on my newborn baby – Used johnson baby skincare wipes for my new born baby and he had rashes at the bottom also had another experience to my family member by using soap n powder to her 6 months baby girl rashes all over.please check if it suits baby or not then only use. However my family member will not suggest using this product

Absolutely wouldn't recommend! – I used these wipes for the first time today on my 7 month old and it left her covered in red rashes which made her grumpy, irritated and extremely uncomfortable! I would not recommend this product to anyone. I will not be using this product. Was not happy at all considering how much I paid for them in bulk, what a waste of money. Expensive, leaves bad rashes & soaking wet instead of moist.

I don't like them – Received a packet of "Johnson's Baby Skincare Wipes Fragrance Free" before the birth of my baby. I have another brand that I always buy. They weren't that bad that I had to throw them out but I was looking forward to finishing the packet. They edges on the end of the packet are sharp and caused scratches on my baby's head. "Fragrance free"… Read more

but I hate the smell of them. The smell is much stronger than other fragrance free wipes.

They are really wet and I dry my baby after using them to avoid nappy rash. The plastic seal doesn't reseal properly resulting in half the wipe drying out.

The wipes also stick together which I think is because they are so wet.

Like I said. I used them but I'd never buy them. Did the job I suppose. Sharp pack edge, seal wouldn't reseal, dry out easily, way too wet, horrible smell

No good for our baby, caused nappy rash – Having always been a J&J fan I was pleased to see the maternity hospital where our son was born used these wipes, however noticed after he was born in the first week using these wipes he developed bad nappy rash, not thinking anymore about it we happened to use a different brand when we got home, rash was clearing up good, seen J&J wipes on… Read more

special at the supermarket so bought some, within 2-3 days nappy rash began to reappear again, so only 1 conclusion to make here unfortunatly. Changed to Curash, no problem since Trustworthy brand Cased Nappy Rash

Sopping wet! – My husband and I found these wipes to be sooo wet, we had to pad our newborn dry with a flannel after each use! Although they did not react with her skin, and the fabric is thick and soft, we'll be using another brand because wiping our newborn dry in the wee hours of the morning (not to mention extra washing of flannels) is just another step… Read more

that we don't need to bother with! Thick and soft. Easy to pull out of the packet. Seriously wet wipes - they left my newborn's skin sopping!

Cause a rash on baby – This are definately not as pure as water! When using them on my baby they left a very bad red rash wherever they had touched his skin. They have a very strong fragrance to them and are extremely wet so you have to dry babies skin after using to put a nappy on. They are not very thick either. Leave a rash

Made my newborn scream in pain :( – I am usually a Huggies buyer but purchased this product when on special. I was drawn in by the line "as mild to skin a pure water". My experience could not have been more different or distressing. After wiping my 10 week old baby girl with these wipes, she screamed in pain and distress and the only way to soothe her was to put her in the bath to… Read more

remove all of the product. My baby was more distressed from contact with these wipe than with her 6 week old vaccination injections. I would never by this product again and feel I have a duty to inform other parents and the company of my experience.

Caused distress and pain to my baby - I had to wash it off immediately. Also felt very greasy for the time that it was on my baby's skin.

Not bad! – Material of wipe was soft and tough enough which is great. It did not disintegrate like another famous brand of wipes. Also the moisture level was adequate enough that it could wipe effectively. The only downside is that the wipe is smaller compared to some other brands and so I could only tear it in half (economy of scale) instead of into three pieces. Soft material with adequate moisture Wipe is smaller in size

awful – They say fragrance free but after wiping my daughter's face she come out in a huge rash ..so fragrance free ? I don't think so. I have tried fragrance and fragrance free and both done the same thing , not a happy mummy here now I need to go buy more wipes . leave bad rash

These are the only wipes I will use – When my baby was born I tried many different wipes before using these & now I won't use anything else. I found some wipes to be quite dry & not very good at cleaning very dirty bottoms. Some wipes gave my baby very bad nappy rash. Some wipes I found very this & quite useless. The Johnson's Wipes are very moist, small great & are quite thick &… Read more

strong. Best of all, they don't give my baby a rash. I buy them when they are on special in a bulk box which also works out very economical. Very moist & smell great.

didnt suit my baby, wipes stung my partners face – We received these in our baby shower gifts...and found when using these our bubs backside got very red and had a nasty reaction. My partner then used a wipe on his face and found it stung his face, which went red also very quickly. I was very surprised but had to change brands, Im not sure what we'll do with the remaining wipes as it appears we are very sensitive to the chemicals used. reaction from our sensitive skin

Good everyday product – Size is generous and weave is strong. I often tear in two. Fits my Huggies wipes container, and never fails to pull out the next wipe when the current one is pulled. Wipes are never dry, which is my biggest annoyance with other brands. Available in a fragrance-free version. Nice and damp, large, strong A bit on the expensive side, even bought in bulk.

Very wet – I find these wipes a bit too wet, leaving bub's bottom damp also. This is probably why bub started getting nappy rashes. Quite disappointing cause I'm usually a fan of Johnson's products. Too wet and have a strong fragrance.

An overall great product – These are my number one choice for baby wipes and I have tried them all. They are wet enough and have just enough fragrance to be nice but not overwhelming. I find that they are good value for money and I buy mine in a bulk pack to get them cheaper. The package is great and seals well after each use. Great value, never dry and not too wet and smells nice

they are ok – I have used this product when they have been on sale. They are quite thin so I need to be careful. They can be quite expensive for the quality. I found them hard to get out of the pack. When I went to pull one out half the pack came with it, so I ended up wasting wipess

Very Wet and a bit overpriced? – Given the size of this company and volume of products which they sell it would appear that this product doesn't get much in the way of notice regarding improvement of the product. They are very wet and always have been and have a very overpowering smell. There should be some sent for the sented wipes but does it have to be so strong? The… Read more

company needs to start listening to the consumers as most of their other products are very good. I was very disappointed with these wipes. Easy to find. Overpowering smell, expensive given the volume they sell.
