Boogie Wipes

Who uses Boogie wipes? Are they worth it? What's your opinion on them? What do you use to wipe your LOs' snotty nose and other things off?

My friend recommended them. I don't have them (yet), wanted to see what you ladies think first. I use a tissue w/ water to wipe the crud of LOs. She tolerates it most of the time. My friend said the boogie wipes smell really good, so the child doesn't think of it as being a tissue.

I bought some on a whim and in general Ellie tolerates them better than a tissue, especially if there's stuff crusted on. They do smell really good, but they're a bit pricey, so I usually only use them if she's crusty, not for just a nose wiping.

i just use a diaper wipe for the caked on boogers
for the new stuff just a puffs tissue with lotion

I use wet wipes

I've never used them. In my opinion, they're an overpriced wet wipe. I use tissue to wipe his nose if it's runny and wet wipes or a wet paper towel to wipe off crusties

I think boogie wipes are awesome. there is saline solution on them, so it loosens up the boogers quickly. I don't use them on a regular basis, but when my LO has a cold I can't live without them. He fights me whenever it comes to picking his nose so I have better luck with boggie wipes because they smell good and they grab a lot of snot. I have seen small travel size pkgs of them so you can try that.

I like them for when Claire has crusties, but I cannot stand the smell. I found some unscented ones at diapers.com that are much more tolerable for Mama.

Looked at them and thought overpriced. But wondering if it was one of those awesome products that make it worth the price..lol
I use a wet wipe for the really crusted on stuff or a wet cloth and tissue for normal nose wiping.

I really hate the grape scent, but I like the "fresh scent" ones.

Never used them, I just use a diaper wipe for the crusties.

I used to buy the "sticky fingers", I think Gerber makes them. LOVE them!! they never dry out, even if you leave the box open accidentally. But they are $$$ for the amount that I would go through. So now we are just sticking to tissues and diaper wipes or water. Really good to take on trips though or just to keep in your diaper bag if you are going shopping, for that quick clean up. Very convenient if you don't mind spending the money. But regular wipes will do just as well.
