The Best Feminine Hygiene Wipes For a Quick Refresh

7 Intimate Cleansing Wipes For When There's Absolutely No Time for a Shower

Sometimes toilet paper just doesn't cut it and the possibility of a proper shower is hours away — that's when intimate cleansing wipes come to the rescue with a quick refresh.

These moistened wipes are typically used to give the vulva area (not inside the vagina!) a gentle, on-the-go cleanse and can be particularly helpful during your period or after a workout, when things can feel a little sweaty and messy down there.

Many intimate wipes on the market are specifically formulated with sensitive skin in mind, but they don't work for everyone. Even products advertised as being gentle and unscented could still include ingredients that are irritating for some. So, before adding a new product to your personal-care routine, you should read over the product's ingredient label carefully and consider checking in with your doctor.

Your vulva doesn't necessarily need the help of these wipes in the grand scheme of things either — sometimes warm water will do the trick.

If you are interested in trying out cleansing wipes, consider the seven options below. Bonus: most of these wipes can be used on other parts of the body that might need a quick cleanse, like your hands, feet, armpits, and more.

Lola Cleansing Wipes

Throw one of these individually-wrapped wipes in your gym bag for a quick refresh after a workout. Like Lola's popular tampons, the Lola Cleansing Wipes ($11 for 12 wipes) are crafted of 100 percent organic cotton. The liquid that moistens them is advertised as being all natural too, consisting of water, gluconic acid, sodium benzoate, lonicera japonica flower extract, lonicera caprifolium flower extract, and lactic acid. According to the brand, they're pH-balanced, hypoallergenic, gynecologist-approved, and can be used on the entire body.

Rael Feminine Wet Wipes

Created from 98 percent natural pulp, the pH-balanced Rael Feminine Wet Wipes ($9 for three packs) have an eco-friendly draw. They're infused with botanical extracts that the brand claims are safe for sensitive skin, like aloe and camellia sinensis leaf extracts and grapefruit extract. But, hands down, the most convenient thing about these fragrance-free wipes is that they're flushable.

Cora pH Balanced Bamboo Body Cloths

The Cora pH Balanced Bamboo Body Cloths ($16 for two packs) can be used anywhere — between your toes, under your arms, and even on skin in the external genital areas. However, remember that the vagina itself doesn't need any help in the cleansing department. These 100 percent bamboo wipes are infused with ingredients like coconut oil, aloe vera, chamomile water, and red raspberry leaf extract. The wipes in these pouches are naturally scented with lavender essential oil, but an unscented option is available on the brand's website as well.

Love Wellness Mini Do It All Wipes

Good news: the pH-balanced wipes in this little pink pack are free of both natural and synthetic fragrances. You might notice the Love Wellness Mini Do It All Wipes ($4) still have a scent, but the brand says that's just from the ingredients in the formula. Those ingredients include botanicals such as organic coconut oil, organic aloe vera, and organic chamomile extract. However, for the sake of your toilet, you'll want to remember that these wipes cannot be flushed.
