In short, I like these, and I don’t actually have any pubescent tweens or teens living in my home (see product description, below). And I’m always leery of products that change the proper spellings of common words… Quick/Qwik… See what I’m saying? But I think my spelling hang-up is going away. QuikTrip is my favorite gas station, and QwikShower Wipes are now on my list of must-have Mommy items.
Here’s the product description:
QwikShower Wipes are a must-have for active children and pubescent tweens and teens who get soiled, sweaty, stinky and self-conscious. These portable single-use disposable washcloths offer an easy, convenient and economical way to help kids get clean and eliminate embarrassing grime and body odor after gym class, sports, outdoor play and other physical activities. QwikShower Wipes are also great for adults for use after the gym, a jog, when traveling, during a long shift at the office, or even after work en route to another engagement.
The uses of my review QwikShower wipes are as follows:
- armpit wipe down on one of those days when I left the house at 6:30 in the morning and didn’t get back until 6:30 that night and for some reason, pregnancy + deodorant doesn’t mix. As in, pregnancy wins and the deodorant just gives up on even trying. Not.Cool. So this particular day I happened to have my QwikShower Wipe (dang it, I still wish they would spell Quick correctly. I just can’t help myself.) and though I wasn’t sure at first that lemony fresh scent would be enough… surprisingly, it was. I was able to live with myself for the remaining 6 hours of errand running, coffee drinking, and kid shuttling.
- face and hand wipe down in the case of the Seriously Dried-On Food. In this case, I’d like to clarify that the face was not my own but my sweet almost-2-year-old son’s. Zeke doesn’t mind trotting around the house with the remnants of any meal plastered to him. I think he kind of likes it; it’s like meal security… Hey, if Mom forgets to feed me I can just snack on these leftovers stuck to my chin! 2-year-old logic. Who can argue? At any rate, the QwikShower wipes worked like a charm. One is big enough that I could wipe down entire face plus 2 sticky hands and get them actually looking, feeling, and smelling clean. This, in short, is miraculous without the aid of sink and copious running water.
So my bottom line? I can’t attest to the effectiveness with tweens and teens, but for sweaty pregnant women and sticky-faced toddlers, these babies are superb. I will keep a stash in my purse, in the diaper bag, and in the car. Because those damp restaurant napkins just don’t quite cut it, kids…
