useful review
I'm notorious for falling asleep directly after sex, I don't pass go, I don't collect $200 and I don't clean my sex toys. Unfortunately, that usually means that when I awaken, I awaken to sticky sex toys with dry, caked on lubricants and bodily fluids. Not fun, you'd think I'd learn better. . . But when it's time to nap, it's time to nap.

I've had a few different kind of toy cleaners, but all of them required either a sink or a towel to wipe the toy down with. And then I found the Afterglow Toy and Body Wipes.

Packaged in a cute blue and silver box, with silhouettes of women on the sides in white, each tissue is individually sealed in bright orange travel packs. While the bright orange isn't exactly subtle, it would probably be passed off as a moist towelette if need be.

Each tissue is approximately 8" by 6" inches, which I didn't realize was so big! Because it's so big, you only need one for multiple toys--or for the toy and the night table you spilled lube on in your hurry. The downside of this is that if you're only using one toy, or a small toy, it's impractical to use a whole huge cloth just to wipe down a small plug or bullet vibrator.

The box itself isn't large, but if you wanted to save space, you could store each tissue on a toy box or bedside table because they're individually packaged. The tissues had a sweet scent, but it did not make much impact because by the time I took the toys out for their next use several hours later, the scent had completely dissipated.

The tissues themselves are durable, they did not rip and they remained moist after cleaning three sex toys. You can also put the tissue back in the packaging once you've cleaned your toys, and dispose of it later--but make sure not to flush it, because that can clog your toilet.

It is also important to remember that the Afterglow wipes are also only for external use.
Experience
Because it's a pre-moistened towelette, I was able to take a few of them on a recent flight to have squeaky clean toys, without having to worry about the liquid restrictions that would affect my other cleaners.
Follow-up commentary
I find that the wipes work really well, but my big problem is the price point. At almost a dollar a wipe (83 cents each, if you buy the 24 pack), I have to think long and hard about whether or not I'm willing to spend a dollar to save the hassle of a cleanup.

The product is great, but the price point is harsh. For that reason alone, I would decrease my rating and decline to purchase these again.

The only time they're worth it is when you're without access to proper facilities (quickie out somewhere or when you're in a rush.) Otherwise, it just doesn't pay.

    That's good to know...sometimes mistakes happen when transcribing. This sounds like a wonderful product for those people who like to share their toys while playing...especially if they stay moist and useable for multiple toys!

    Thanks for the review!

    I'm a person who freaks out about "wastefulness", so I'm glad you mentioned that. I definitely conk out after a good romp with my toys, so these sound perfect! How did they work as a body wipe?

    They worked well enough as a body wipe, I guess. . . I'll admit, I didn't really use them *much* for that purpose, as they were used to clean sticky residue off my sex toys. And, because they're for external use only, I'm a little wary about using them on/around intimate bits, but when I did, I had no irritation or discomfort at all.

    But because I almost always have a towel handy during sex, body wipes wouldn't be a make/break for a cleansing product.

    Hope that helped!

    Thanks for pointing out the costliness of these. I'm known for being frugal. I think I may get these for those quickie moments, or outdoorsy sex perhaps.
