safe to use Green Works cleaning wipes on mask?

Here's the ingredient list.
alkyl polyglucoside, citric acid, ethanol, fragrance with essential oils, glycerine, preservative, silicone antifoaming agent, and substrate.

Here's the website that lists them.

I'll let you decide but, I don't think I want Citric Acid or Ethanol on the mask. Not to mention the rest of the stuff. And what the heck is alkyl polyglucoside anyway?

That stuff's for cleaning your oven among other things... so not with a 10' pole!

You don't have to wash your mask often....I wash mine at about 6 weeks. Wipe them nightly with baby wipes from CVS(non scented, no alcohol and cheap)

Agreed, LSAT. I use Target's "Up and Up" baby wipes (the blue label variety is no scent/no alcohol.) Probably the same as the CVS version.

Normally, I approve of green things; but in this case--
you've got to be kidding!

My red flag is "fragrance with essential oils."

Thanks LL -- I use these mask wipes (plain not citrus) and they work really well, and I see the same thing on the container that you quoted above, but what exactly are those "natural gentle" cleaners? That's more a description than a list of ingredients. I'm certainly not losing any sleep over not knowing, just curious how they're able to get around actually identifying the ingredients once they've been "derived" from those natural sources.

I wondered the same thing.... but they seem to do well.

How do they determine what is "gentle"?
If they are not doing animal testing, what is the default?
Volunteers? If they pay enough, tweekers would be lined up around the corner.
