Jackson Reece Soothing Herbal Wipes offer parents a natural, healthier alternative. Our unique herbal formula soothes and protects against common skin irritations such as nappy rash and exzema and contains none of the harsh ingredients that can potentially damage delicate skin.
We recommend that baby wipes should not be used until babies are at least one month old. At Jackson Reece we believe that delicate newborn skin should not be exposed to any new products until babies are one month old. This is the same guidance given by midwives.

So that fellow mums and dads can rest assured they’re using mild and gentle cleansing wipes, we have designed our unique balm to soothe and protect babies’ delicate skin by using natural ingredients:
Aloe Vera: The extraordinary healing powers of the aloe vera plant make it an important ingredient in the Jackson Reece formula. The leaves contain a gel which has an immediate healing effect on wounds and burns. The gel acts like a protective coating on the skin and accelerates the healing process. It is also a mild anaesthetic and relieves pain and itching. It increases the flow of blood and reduces inflammation, swelling and redness. Aloe vera is also beneficial for skin disorders such as psoriasis, acne and exzema. The gel acts as a moisturiser, removes dead cells and can reduce scarring. Aloe vera gels and sprays are also used in the relief of arthritic pain in the joints and muscles.
Tea Tree Oil: Tea tree has a long history of traditional use. Australian aboriginals used tea tree leaves for healing skin cuts, burns, and infections by crushing the leaves and applying them to the affected area. Tea tree oil contains constituents called terpenoids, which have been found to have antiseptic and antifungal activity. Tea tree oil is commonly used as a treatment for acne, athlete's foot, dandruff and exzema.
Lavender Essential Oil: There are many good reasons why lavender is in the Jackson Reece formula. It smells great, relaxing oil, which combats stress and has a healing effect and is useful for skin problems, wounds, insect bites and stings.
Purified Water: We think it’s important to filter water to a high standard to kill any harmful bacteria.
We are just as proud of Jackson Reece wipes for what they do NOT contain. Some ingredients found in many baby and childrens’ products can cause problems for delicate skin. In today’s modern lifestyle, babies and children are exposed to tens of thousands of different substances and products without anyone really understanding the long term effects. Being five times thinner than adult skin, our babies are more susceptible to the damage that irritants found in many skincare products can do. Synthetic chemicals such as alcohol, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulphate (SLES), Lanolin and Parabens can cause all sorts of problems for delicate skin. Our wipes are:
Alcohol FREE Alcohol appears in many cosmetics and skin care products. Stripping skin of its natural oil, alcohol dries out the skin and often causes redness, irritation and inflammation. Drying out the top layers of skin can also inhibit the natural ability to shed dead skin cells and to keep the pores open, which can lead to pore clogging. For this reason we have chosen not to use alcohol, making our wipes ideal for delicate, sensitive or inflamed skin.
Parabens FREE Parabens are a group of commonly used preservatives found in many baby skincare products. They are widely used because of their ability to destroy bacteria that can form and grow in these type of products. It’s because they are strong and aggressive that they are another common irritant responsible for upsetting the natural balance of the skin. However, more worryingly they have recently been linked to the causes of breast cancer. While it is important to note that these studies have not yet been conclusive, we believe parabens have no place near a baby’s skin.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) & Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) FREE SLS and SLES are the most common chemical used in childrens toiletries to make them foam and cleanse. When rinsed off, the product will have cleaned the area but will have taken moisture from the top layers of skin. They are widely used by big manufacturers as they’re cheap and effective. In people with sensitive skin (prone to dermatitis, acne, eczema, psoriasis and chemical sensitivity), the drying property of these type of detergents can cause flare-ups of skin conditions or may aggravate existing conditions.
Lanolin FREE A small percentage of the population has an allergy to lanolin which is why it was an easy decision not to use lanolin in our wipes.

great for keeping nappy rash at bay. but they were advertised as flushable and packaging says do not flush.
Sara Nobili - Wednesday 8th February 2012 - 22:03
I personally did not like these wipes. The perfume is too strong and they are not very moist, compared to Sainsbury's Eco wipes for example. I would not buy them again.
Timothy Emly - Tuesday 22nd November 2011 - 16:59
Fantastic wipes! Good value too for biodegradeable.
Laureen Benton - Sunday 3rd January 2010 - 22:01
I thought these were more environmentally friendly than they claim to be. Smell is rather strong which indicates that they contain phthalates.
Clean Green Nappy Machine says: These wipes do not contain phthalates - as is indicated the manufacturers information. The smell comes from natural ingredients, including the following: # Certified Organic Aloe Vera naturally hydrating, healing & cooling. # Certified Organic Tea Tree Oil, naturally antibacterial. # Certified Organic Lavender Essential Oil, soothing and calming.
