How to Swap to Non-Toxic makeup wipes:

Here's how to swap to non-toxic makeup wipes:

What to know about makeup wipes

Makeup wipes sit on your skin and are used around your eyes, lips, and entire face — some of the most sensitive areas on your body. Many contain synthetic fragrances, harsh preservatives, and unnecessary additives that stay on the skin after use since wipes aren't rinsed off.

  • Because wipes leave a residue on your skin, the ingredients in the formula matter more than in a product you rinse away.
  • If you use makeup wipes daily, they deserve extra attention since frequent use on sensitive facial skin adds up over time.

Review what you already use

Check your current makeup wipes using the Welpr Personal Care and Cosmetic Scanner. It lets you snap a photo of the ingredient label and flags anything worth a closer look.

  • Look for "fragrance" or "parfum" on the label — these are common in wipes and often hide undisclosed synthetic ingredients.
  • Check first any wipes you use on your face daily or keep by your bedside for nightly routines, since those get the most use.

Use your current wipes more carefully

If you're not ready to replace your wipes right away, a quick rinse after using them can reduce what stays on your skin. This is especially helpful around the eyes and mouth.

  • After wiping off makeup, splash your face with water or follow up with a damp cloth to remove any residue left behind.
  • Save wipes with strong fragrances for less sensitive areas like your hands, and avoid using them around your eyes or lips.

Choose cleaner replacements

Look for makeup wipes with short, simple ingredient lists and wipes made from organic cotton or bamboo. Welpr-approved wipes skip synthetic fragrances, harsh preservatives, and unnecessary additives. If scented, they use only natural fragrance from essential oils or plant extracts.

  • Check that all ingredients and materials are fully disclosed on the package or product page — skip wipes that list "proprietary blend" or don’t specify the fiber type.
