Isn't it mind-boggling to learn that the wipes we use on our hands, our kids, our pets, and our homes often include tons of harsh chemicals that can be very bad for you, your family, and the environment. Instead, shouldn't it be common sense to be able to get things, people, animals clean in a safe and effective way? We do, and that’s why we at Grove have rounded up reviews for the best natural wipes you can buy. From top brands such as Seventh Generation and Babyganics to other leading favorites, see what products have made the cut below.
Why go with natural wipes? First off, they're nontoxic, but also most natural wipes are made by B corporations, just like Grove, out to do good with better business practices and eco-friendly packaging. Some natural wipes even break down or can be composted so they don't leave a lasting effect and become part of the plastic pollution in our environment and oceans. Now, what are you waiting for? Go check out what Grove members call the best and leave the rest behind you.

Uh, no! Well, you technically can, but you really shouldn’t ever flush baby wipes — that’s what diaper pails were created for. Baby wipes, including natural baby wipes, are durable enough to be able to withstand wiping your little one’s most nasty poos. Because of their durability, they’d take quite some time to break down in water, which means they’d probably end up clogging your pipes and doing damage to your plumbing or even your community's sewer system.
If you’re looking for the best flushable wipes, that’s a whole ‘nother ball game, and you should look into natural flushable wipes that can be used in the bathroom and that are specifically made to disintegrate when they’re flushed down your potty.
Natural disinfectant wipes and cleaning wipes should also never be flushed, even if you’re using them in your bathroom to clean your counters or other areas. Just throw them in the trash (or compost bin if they're compostable) when you’re finished.
Don’t let their appearance fool you, natural baby wipes may easily make hands (and other places and surfaces) look clean with a few swipes, but they're made primarily with water and don't kill germs like natural disinfectant wipes and cleaning wipes that can kill germs on the spot. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention don’t recommend baby wipes for disinfecting. Natural baby wipes are made to be super gentle on baby’s skin and aren’t made with alcohol, so they can’t act the same as the best disinfectant wipes can toward germs and bacteria.
We suggest sticking to using baby wipes for what they’re for and looking for disinfectant wipes to clean your home or office. If you’re looking for hand sanitizing wipes, you can also find natural options on Grove. Take a look at the selections of the best disinfectant wipes made from natural ingredients in our list above.
Not all face wipes are biodegradable, but there are some brands that go out of their way to do our planet a big favor and make them biodegradable or compostable. If you have face wipes or natural disinfectant wipes that are compostable, you can, in fact, throw them right into your compost bin. Three cheers for choosing a more environmentally friendly way to go when it comes to cleaning up.
Here are some reasons to choose biodegradable wipes, from facial wipes to the best disinfectant wipes:
