The only sources are Dude Wipes product listings and retailer pages (manufacturer site, National Eczema Association listing, Albertsons, Target) that repeat the 99% water and plant-based wording, so they are circular and do not independently verify the composition.

An ad makes this claim. It counts as passed on, not against the post.

What we found

Context. The manufacturer's product page, the National Eczema Association listing, the Albertsons listing and the Target listing all state 'made with 99% water and plant-based ingredients,' which repeats the claim rather than independently confirming it.[3][4][5][6]

Context. The published ingredient lists begin with water and include glycerin, aloe and vitamin E extracts, consistent with a water-based product, but they give no percentage and include synthetic-type preservatives and surfactants, so 'plant-based' is a marketing characterization that the lists do not settle.[3][4][5][6]

Context. The FactBot entry and the Lead Stories December 2023 page do not address Dude Wipes' composition.[1][2]
