Scary wipes

Postby fleur08 » Sat Feb 27, 2010 7:53 am

has anyone ever looked at the back of a wipes packet?
i bought some co-op ones yesterday, look ok, not tested on animals, biodegradable etc...
anyway i just happened to read the back of the pack.......... it says if swallowed drink water,dont induce vomiting & to tell doctors it is registered with the NPIS :shock: :shock:
And there was me thinking i was getting a nice gentle product, it also lists sodium hydroxide as an ingredient !!
wont be buying these again, especialy as emilie likes sucking wipes.

makes you think dont it.......

It is shocking isn't it? I buy them but only for cleaning. They are great for cleaning stains off things like carpets. I certainly wouldn't put them anywhere near my children's bottoms though.
