Category: Baby > Baby wipes. Updated 2026-10-08. Based on 328 counted first-hand reports from Target shopper reviews, Jul 2022 to Oct 2026.

**Question:** Which baby wipes stay moist in the pack?

**Short answer:** Pampers Aqua Pure Wipes have the best record for staying moist: 12 of 14 parents said the wipes stayed moist through the pack. The Honest Company Plant-Based Wipes follow at 10 of 12, but both rest on small groups of parents (14 and 12), so treat the gap between them as small. Millie Moon Sensitive Wipes have the weakest record here at 3 of 23.

**What stands out:** The same brand can land in very different places: Pampers Aqua Pure Wipes come in at 12 of 14, while Pampers Sensitive Wipes come in at 7 of 14. Dryness is the complaint at the bottom of the list, with 59% of Millie Moon reviews and 42% of Huggies Simply Clean reviews calling the wipes too dry.
