Review: AfterGlow anti-bacterial cleansing wipes

January 7, 2010 at 6:19 pm , by scintillectual

0990200-aSounds exciting, right? Yeah…that’s about the level of enthusiasm I was feeling when I accidentally received these from Babeland for review in place of this year’s Best Lesbian Erotica. While marvelous Max assured me that all would be well and I would be getting the book to review, I was asked if I would mind going ahead and doing a review of the AfterGlow anti-bacterial cleansing wipes in the meantime. Oh please, I thought, how in the world does one review baby wipes?

Okay, folks, this may not be a lengthy review, but let me tell you how utterly wrong I was about these babies! We all have our issues regarding safe sex practices and keeping our toys sterilized, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera… However, I’m going to let you in on a not-so-little secret. I nap in the afternoons. Almost every afternoon. I get up at the asscrack of dawn because I am a morning person by nature but around 1:30-ish I’m too pooped to party. Before said nap, I like to have a mind-splintering orgasm. I stop thinking about work and it puts me right to sleep. Unfortunately, because I like two (count them, two) toys at once (you know, an innie and an outie), I wake up to rather a mess. Let’s not even ruminate on the state of my panties afterward! All of that said (TMI, anyone?) I decided to haul out the package of 20 wipes that winged their way across the country to me by mistake and yowza! My toys cleaned up nice! I felt safe to put them back in the bag that goes under my bed without having to scald them in hot water and as for personal hygiene? I don’t have to go through two sets of undies a day anymore!

These handy-dandy little cleansing cloths are not only anti-bacterial, but they are aloe-infused as well. Very soft on my very soft parts. More than likely very soft on very hard parts as well. I now use them as a regular part of my afternoon delight and am thinking of ordering several sets and swiping an old Cottonelle wipes box so that they can sit on my nightstand. It’s kind of a pain to hang half off my bed and rummage around looking for them.

Although some thoughtful guy declared them great for wiping up between anal and vaginal intercourse (gee, at least he did that much), Babeland and I agree that condoms should be used on both flesh penises and silicone/vixskin/cyberskin/what-have-you-skin due to the bacteria that can be transferred in the process. Let’s also clarify that these are not to take place of some serious heavy-duty cleaning of one’s array of dildos, vibrators, butt plugs, and the like, but if you are thorough—they are wonderful for a one- or two-off cleaning when you are in a bit of a hurry.

Oh, did I mention that DPR raved about them as well while she was here? Really nice for cleaning up after a quickie. Not to mention a little extra hygiene before a trip down south, dont’cha know? So seriously? While I scoffed, poo-pooed, and generally guffawed at the thought of reviewing what I thought was tantamount to a small package of damp Kleenex, I am sold on adding at least one set of these to every order I place with Babeland.

So, hey Max! Thanks, buddy, I appreciate the mix-up. My little clean poonani and her toys are happier than ever! I’m giving the AfterGlow anti-bacterial wipes a good old fashioned “Ohhhh!”

Product details:

  • Size: Single or 20-pack
  • Ingredients: Water, Propylene Glycol, Aloe Barbadnesis Leaf Juice

Oh. Oh…uh huh… Ohhhh! Oh yeah, baby! YES! YES! YES!

About Me

I'm a recent transplant to somewhere south of the Mason-Dixon line. While mothering my energetic 10-year-old son, I'm also working as a contract graphic designer, freelance proofreader and copy editor, and planning an October 1, 2011 wedding to my anam cara, soul mate, and best friend (they all come rolled into one fantastically hot and ultra-intellectual package). In my rare spare time, I write as much as I possibly can and in several different places. This is the outlet for my erotic bent. Or bent erotica. I have come to love the community of sex bloggers. They are an amazing group of talented and wonderfully supportive individuals. Please come back regularly and be sure to check out my links to spread the love to some of the greatest writers and artists around. Enjoy!
