Flushable Wipes Ingredient SHOUTOUT: Green Tea, Aloe, Chamomile, and Witch Hazel
When we talk about “botanical boosters” in skincare or personal hygiene, ingredients like green tea, aloe, chamomile, and witch hazel frequently surface. But beyond buzzwords, what do the scientific studies actually say about why they should be used? And more importantly: how do we use those ingredients responsibly so they deliver benefits without creating risks? That’s what we’ll talk about in today’s post! Green Tea: Antioxidant Powerhouse & Soothing Ally What it does Green tea is rich in polyphenols (especially EGCG [epigallocatechin gallate]), which act as potent antioxidants, helping neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress in skin cells. {Thring et al., 2011 shows antioxidant + anti-inflammatory activity of plant extracts including green tea} (Reference) It also has anti-inflammatory effects, reducing cytokine-mediated skin irritation and redness in some models. (Reference) In the realm of skincare systems, formulations containing green tea and other botanicals have been associated with improved skin parameters (hydration, appearance, smoothness) in controlled studies. (Reference) Real-world implications For sensitive or frequently irritated skin, green tea can help buffer minor stressors (friction, mild chemicals) by calming inflammatory pathways. It can help in balancing sebum or oil overproduction, reducing the incidence of clogged pores or irritation in areas that tend to sweat. Because it’s relatively well tolerated, it’s often used in leave-on formulations (mists, toners) for a sustained mild effect. Cautions As with any botanical, concentration and purity matter—if improperly formulated, the same polyphenols may act as irritants in rare individuals. Avoid pairing with harsh exfoliants or aggressive actives until you’ve tested for compatibility. Aloe (Aloe Vera): The Hydrating Soother What it does Aloe is known for its moisture-retaining properties (humectant-like behavior), helping skin stay supple and reducing dryness on delicate areas. (Reference) It also exhibits anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects, supporting the regeneration of mildly irritated or minorly damaged skin (some burns, scrapes) (Reference) In anecdotal and small experimental settings, aloe has been used in formulations to calm post-procedure irritation, razor burn, or chafing (Reference) Real-world implications After friction, sweating, or mild irritation, aloe can be an effective ingredient to soothe tightness or stinging. Because it helps maintain hydration, it can prevent micro-fissures (tiny cracks) in delicate skin that might occur under dryness stress. Cautions Some individuals may experience sensitivity or allergic reaction to inner-leaf components (especially if additives or preservatives are present). Overuse (heavy layering without letting skin breathe) can sometimes lead to a feeling of residue or mild dampness. Chamomile: Gentle Calmer & Redness Reducer What it does Chamomile contains bisabolol and chamazulene, compounds known for anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and calming actions. (Reference) It may suppress local inflammatory mediators and help reduce redness, itch, or mild irritation. (Reference) In phytomedical reviews, chamomile is among herbs included in anti-acne or skin-soothing remedies (alongside others like green tea, aloe, witch hazel) for its broad calming and antimicrobial synergy (Reference) Real-world implications For users with reactive or easily irritated skin, chamomile helps “soften the blow” when skin is exposed to mild stress (heat, friction, sweat). It works especially well in formulations designed to be gentle or leave-on, because its action is more passive and less aggressive than strong actives. Cautions Chamomile is generally well tolerated, but in rare individuals with ragweed or Asteraceae allergies, cross-reaction is possible. As always, formulation stability (preservatives, pH) matters; raw chamomile extract isn’t a “magic bullet” by itself. Witch Hazel: Astringent & Anti-Inflammatory Agent What it does Modern studies (e.g. Liu et al. 2024) show that witch hazel extract can reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8) in inflamed skin models, while also enhancing markers of skin barrier integrity (e.g. loricrin, transglutaminase-1) and reducing oxidative stress markers after UV exposure. (Reference) Witch hazel contains tannins and flavonoids—compounds with astringent, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects. (Reference) As a botanical “classic,” it has long been used in skincare as a mild astringent to tighten pores, calm irritation, and reduce swelling or redness. (Reference) Real-world implications The astringent property helps provide a sense of “firmness” or reduction in oiliness, which can be appreciated in areas prone to sweat or mild irritation. When skin is inflamed or dry-damaged, appropriate concentrations of witch hazel may help reinforce barrier recovery while calming. Because it’s multifunctional—both astringent and antioxidant—it’s often used in flush, cleansing, or soothing formulations. Cautions Overapplication or high concentrations (especially with alcohol-based witch hazel) can lead to skin dryness, tightness, or irritation. Very dry or fragile skin types should test carefully. Using it repeatedly in high doses may disturb the skin microbiome or remove too much protective lipid. Why Ingredient Selection & Formulation Matters Simply listing “green tea” or “aloe” on a label isn’t enough. The source, concentration, pH compatibility, purity, and the formula matrix (other ingredients) determine whether these botanicals help, or harm, your skin. How We Apply These Ingredients Thoughtfully: The Squatty Potty Way We believe your skin deserves the botanical benefits without compromise. So in our Squatty Potty Flushable Wipes, we’ve integrated green tea, aloe, chamomile, and witch hazel (in well-balanced infusion) through extensive formulation and safety review. Here’s how: Efficacious concentrations: We don’t overload the formula. Each botanical is present at a level intended to deliver support without overwhelming sensitive skin. Dermatologist-tested & pH-balanced: The entire wipe formula, including these botanicals, is tested for skin compatibility, so they function well in delicate settings. Minimalistic, clean base: With a 99% water and plant based formula, alcohol-free, no parabens or dyes, and plant-based fibers, we avoid layering harsh compounds over your skin. Thoughtful synergy: The combination of botanicals is chosen for their complementary nature, infused in a way that is gentle for skin but balanced to leave you feeling fresh and clean In short: we didn’t just pick ingredients because they sound good. We picked them because evidence suggests they can contribute to skin resilience and comfort, and then built a product that lets them perform in a gentle and safe way. Final Thoughts Botanicals like green tea, aloe, chamomile, and witch hazel carry real biological potential, but they are only as good as their formulation. The benefits lie not in marketing hype, but in careful selection and synergy. When applied correctly, they can support a beneficial user experience - especially valuable in areas frequently exposed to sweat, friction, and irritation. That’s why in Squatty Potty Flushable Wipes, these botanical ingredients are more than storytelling, they’re part of an intentional, skin-friendly formula designed to bring a gentle real-world benefit to your most delicate of parts!
Learn moreRoad Trips & Rest Stops: Clean Comfort on the Go
There’s something magical about the open road - scenic views, playlists, snacks, and new destinations on the horizon. But let’s face it: one thing most travelers dread is the rest stop bathroom. Cramped stalls, questionable cleanliness, and minimal supplies can leave you feeling less than fresh after a pit stop. But, you can beat those bathroom blues with some minor preparation and a few essentials, like our Squatty Potty Grab N’ Go Flushable Wipes, to help you feel clean and fresh for the next leg of your journey. Why Road Bathrooms Pose Skin & Hygiene Challenges Traveling presents a unique set of stressors for your skin and body: High Germ Load: Public restrooms harbor lots of bacteria and pathogens on surfaces and in air droplets. Studies show that toilet flushing aerosolizes droplets that can carry microorganisms into the air. (Schreck et al., 2021) (https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.11990) Sweat + Friction = Trouble: On a long drive, you’re often in the same shorts or pants for hours. As body temperature rises, sweat accumulates, magnifying friction in zones like thighs, groin, or under gear. Damp, rubbing skin is a recipe for chafing, irritation, or even superficial inflammation. Ineffective Cleaning: If you are trying to get clean with thin, rough toilet paper or with just whatever small amount is left on the roll, you risk leaving residue and moisture behind that can lead to itching or discomfort later. Inconsistent Supply: There’s no guarantee that a rest stop bathroom will or will not have, so being self sufficient is crucial in those moments when there’s not a Given those factors, road-trip hygiene can become more just trying to get as clean as possible as opposed to feeling comfortable. Tips for Staying Fresh & Protected During Travel Here are recommendations based on skin science and practical experience: 1. Build a Compact Travel Hygiene Kit Make a small pouch with essentials like: Hypoallergenic wipes A folded piece of toilet paper or portable “emergency roll” Travel-size hand sanitizer (60%+ alcohol) A mini spray bottle or squeeze bottle (for water rinse) A compact microfiber towel or soft cloth A spare pair of undergarments By carrying your own kit, you avoid relying entirely on rest-stop supplies. 2. Prioritize Gentle Cleaning, Not Aggressive Scrubbing In delicate skin zones, friction can do more harm than good. Use a gentle wipe or moistened cloth to lift residue efficiently and effectively rather than scrubbing intensely with dry paper. 3. Always Pat Dry After Wiping After you wipe or clean, always pat (don’t rub) the area dry with clean tissue or a soft cloth. This avoids residual dampness, which, as noted, can encourage irritation or microbial overgrowth. 4. Change & Air Out Underlayers Whenever possible, switch to fresh underwear or liners. Even a 5-minute break can reduce skin temperature and let moisture evaporate, cutting friction risk. 5. Mind Friction Hot Spots Areas to watch: thighs, groin folds, anywhere your clothes or straps rub. Use your wipes or water to keep these zones clean and dry. Use light powders or cloth barriers if you’re prone to chafing. 6. Sanitize High-Touch Surfaces Wipe down stall surfaces (door handles, flush handles, latch handles) with a disinfectant or your wipes before touching. This limits your exposure to germs. (Health.com covers how public restrooms harbor microbes and aerosol contamination) 7. Limit Time in the Stall The longer you’re in a humid, enclosed restroom, the more aerosolized microbes linger in the air. Get in, do your business, clean, dry, and exit—don’t linger. The Schreck et al. (2021) aerosol study backs this; more flushes and more time means more aerosol buildup. How Squatty Potty Flushable Wipes Fit Into the Road-Trip Strategy Squatty Potty Flushable Wipes are the perfect travel companion for any road warrior. While developing our wipes, we learned what works and what doesn’t when it comes to effective cleaning, from moisture level to targeted ingredients. Here’s how our wipes address the tough constraints of on-the-go hygiene: Gentle but effective: 99% water, alcohol-free, no parabens or dyes—so they cleanse without harsh chemicals. Dermatologist-tested & pH-balanced: Built to respect sensitive and eczema prone skin. Botanical comfort: Infused with soothing aloe, chamomile, green tea, and a touch of witch hazel to help sooth and leave you feeling fresh. Strong yet soft plant-based fibers: 100% plant based fibers are strong enough to clean, while minimizing friction. Flushable & septic-safe: Engineered to disperse when flushed when you follow the flushing guidelines on the packaging. Balanced Moisture: Wet enough to effectively clean without excess moisture left behind. Portable formats: Compact sizes including a Grab ‘N Go 18-count, a full size 50-count, and multi pack configurations for stocking up in preparation for longer trips. This makes them easy to stash in your glove box, travel bag, or console. To put it simply, these wipes don’t just feel great, they’re built to handle the real-world challenges of travel hygiene. Final Word Road trips should be about fun and discovery - not being preoccupied with bathroom anxiety or post pit stop discomfort. With the right strategy (cleaning gently, drying thoroughly, swapping damp layers) and the right tools in hand, you can stay fresh mile after mile. So be prepared with a dependable, skin-friendly wipe you trust - one that pampers your skin, is easy to pack, and helps you feel good from start to finish.
