But some slammed the environmental impact that disposable wipes have, writing: ‘These wipes are contributing significantly to plastic pollution of our water systems and are also entirely made from on biodegradable plastic please think twice. Some of our wipes are ending up dumped in Malaysia’.

Another claimed: ‘Wipes! Plastic! Surely a wet flannel will do the same’.
