Parents love single-use wipes, but they are among the least environmentally friendly products (the presence of plastic in their composition is often ignored).

But the prize goes to Mustela which, in 2022, is completely rethinking its wipes offer. The brand has come up with three eco-designed products for two different uses (at home or on the go).
At home, you can use Ēco-Reusable & Washable Wipes that come in two formats, large (Launch Kit with 1 wash net including 4 large wipes of 12 cm X 4.7 and 6 small wipes of 10 cm X 3.9, €19.90) or small (3 wipes of 12 cm X 4.7 and 3 wipes of 10 cm X …
