There’s no better feeling than getting in a good workout, but sometimes it’s tough to squeeze gym time into our day. 

From busy work schedules to family duties to social time with friends, finding time to go to the gym can be a challenge, especially if you factor-in a post-gym shower. After all, no one wants to continue the rest of their day drenched in sweat and worried about body odor. 

This is why more and more people are considering post workout body wipes. They save you time, are easy to pack into a gym bag, and leave you feeling clean and refreshed. 

But are after workout body wipes actually sanitary? Can you confidently continue about your day without worrying about whether or not you smell? And are disposable body wipes safe for the environment? 

Yes! Here’s what you need to know.

How BOX Naturals Post Workout Body Wipes Get the Job Done

The secret is choosing the right body wipe. 

One of the most commonly asked questions on Google is “can adults use baby wipes after a workout?” Technically you can use baby wipes, but that doesn’t mean it’s the best solution for you. Think about it this way: you can clean up from the gym using nothing but a paper towel, but will that really get the job done?

While baby wipes are good and are safe for adults, it’s important to remember that they are created specifically for babies. On the other hand, choosing adult wipes will provide you with larger, stronger, and specially formulated solutions for your hygienic needs, especially… you know, down there. 

Instead, it’s better to choose post workout towelettes that are individually wrapped for adults. At BOX Naturals, our wipes are pH balanced and 100% biodegradable! Our wipes are also paraben free and alcohol free, ensuring that women and men with sensitive skin can use our wipes without any worry. 

As our name suggests, our towelettes are also free of synthetic fragrances, using only natural ingredients for your health and hygiene. 

Here are some reasons why our customers consider us the best body wipes for after a workout:

  • Individually wrapped. This ensures that the wipes are always fresh and moist for your needs! Simply slip a wipe into your purse or gym bag, and you’re good to go. You don’t have to worry about a bulky package or container that you have to carry around.

  • Safe for your face. After workout wipes for your body aren’t always safe for your face. Remember, the skin on your face is more sensitive than the rest of your body. Fortunately, our wipes can also be used as after workout face wipes. Because our wipes are paraben free, alcohol free, and only include natural ingredients such as essential oils, they are a great option for both your face and body.

  • Can be used on workout equipment. Good hygiene isn’t just limited to your body. It’s also important to clean your workout equipment for others as well as yourself before dirt, germs, and grime have the chance to build up. Simply wipe down your equipment with our post workout body wipes. Wondering how to clean a Lululemon yoga mat? Simply wipe down, allow a few seconds to dry, then store your yoga mat as needed.

  • Much quicker than a shower. Are you going to the gym during your lunch break? Is your schedule busy with limited time to shower in-between errands? Post workout body wipes are an excellent alternative to showering. Lightly scented with organic essential oils, these after workout wipes will allow you to go about your day without having to worry about whether or not you smell like the gym. You’ll feel fresh and rejuvenated after wiping with our towelettes!

These are just some of the many benefits of purchasing our post workout body wipes. There’s a reason people who order from us tend to re-order again! 

Should You Wipe Your Sweat After a Workout?

Like all good questions, context matters. If you’re returning to the office after a lunch break workout, then yes, you’ll want to use post workout body wipes to freshen up. You can use them on your face, all over your body, and yes, even down there. Our eco-friendly wipes are designed for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin. 

However, there are some cases when you shouldn’t wipe your sweat. For example, if you’re walking home from a workout and won’t have immediate access to air conditioning, you won’t want to wipe away your sweat unless you’re drenched. Why? Because sweat is a mechanism for your body to naturally cool down. As sweat evaporates from your skin, excess heat from your body will dissipate with it.

If you’re inside or otherwise have access to air conditioning (such as from your car), then this isn’t as much of an issue.

When it comes to post workout body wipes, it’s better to get wipes that are specifically designed for adults. One of the most common questions we see is: Can you use baby wipes post workout?

Yes, you “can,” but wouldn’t you rather have the best wipes for post workout that leave you feeling and smelling fresh? Our wipes even allow you to remove makeup, so you can reapply makeup for the rest of the day. They’re even perfect for travel and romantic rendezvous.

As we like to say: They’re perfect anytime, anywhere!
