  • These are the best flushable wipes and so amazing for sensitive skin. They are super helpful for children and getting things really clean.. I’ve loved the mission of this company and that importance for using cleaning ingredients goes a long way. We have had zero issues with flushing these down the toilet and they are a staple in our household.

  • I’ve been using this product for awhile and now it’s worked so well for me! It gently detangles my hair. It has such a refreshing scent, not too strong but just right. Great for every day use and I love it.

  • Nothing fancy here, just moisture in a bottle that has a slight smell that disappears quickly. What more could you ask for! It goes on smoothly and does the job well without parabens, mineral oil, and thousands of other questionable ingredients.

  • I’ve been trying out the Honest Company skincare line, and honestly… I’m really impressed. The whole vibe is super gentle, clean, and perfect for everyday use. Nothing feels heavy or harsh on my skin. The cleansers are light, the moisturizers sink in fast, and everything leaves my skin feeling soft and fresh without any weird residue. What I love most is that the ingredients feel safer and more thoughtful. No strong fragrances, no harsh chemicals — just simple products that get the job done. My skin feels hydrated, calm, and a lot more balanced since I started using it. If you’re into clean beauty or have sensitive skin, this line is actually worth checking out. It’s not overhyped or overly fancy — just solid, clean skincare that makes your skin look and feel healthy. I’d definitely recommend it!

  • I love that Honest Company sells many products geared towards expecting mothers. I bought oil, jelly, lotions and body wash during my pregnancy with my son. The products do contain fragrance but it's tasteful and light. As someone who avoids fragrance due to sensitivity, I trust this brand and what they use in their products.

  • This concealer feels so light and smooth on my skin and the color works well for me but it does settle into creases and holds perfect after a long day, this product is relatively clean, so I feel that the price point is very affordable for the amount of product that is .

  • Love this clean brand! These wipes have never given my baby any issues which is so nice. I love the thickness and how easy it is to pull the wipes out as well. Every once in a while, two wipes will come out together, but for the most part you’re able to get one wipe out at a time which is always a plus when you’re trying to quickly change your baby and only have one hand available to grab things.

  • This cleanser is perfectly gentle but effective. I've been using it in the shower every morning and my skin has never been clearer or softer. I only wish it was easier to find in stores - my Walgreens stopped carrying it.

  • Honest Company makes an awesome smelling hand sanitizer that I like to have in my car and on the go in my purse. Also their shampoo and conditioner for babies is nice as well smells great, I’ve used it myself just because of seeing how great the ingredients are!

  • When creating a baby registry, I included Honest diapers in the newborn size, and it was one of the most gifted items to my husband and me. As first-time parents, we learned a lot about diapers, including size and weight guidance, proper fit, and the difference between daytime and nighttime options. We are super satisfied with the performance after about 7 weeks of exclusively using Honest (we tried Pampers and Coterie). The patterns are also cute and often come in multi-packs. Most of the orders placed for the diapers came directly from the Honest site as well. We shall see how the size 1 diapers perform, but overall they are simple and have caused no rash or irritation to our little one.

  • The best product i ever tried the concelear is clean and had no harmful ingredients all this products are the best and they are very afordable too compare with other beauty brands. It is definitely recommend!!

  • I love the lavandar oil because it absorbs amazing into my skin and leaves me feeling soft and my man loves rubbing on me after wearing it, this brand is definitely for all users and not just babies get the oil if ur crunchy skin

  • I have tried the Honest brand (face products only) before so I purchased the Gentle Gel Cleanser. Delicious smell and good price point. I like that it doesn't lather too much which can take forever to was off. There is just something about this cleanser that makes my skin appreciate the product. I also love that their mission is to create clean products from the ingredients to the packaging to who they work with. Their name aligns with their products which makes me trust this brand.

  • I have been loving purchasing honest products, especially their liquid type of rash cream. It has been amazing. I hate fighting with my daughter because she doesn’t want me to put on diaper rash cream on her. This just makes the process so much easier and it’s a

  • The calm face and body lotion is very moisturizing and is the perfect texture since it’s not too thick. I love the calming lavender scent, it’s nice but not overpowering. I also got it in travel size which makes it perfect to keep in my purse for on the go!

  • We love Honest in my household. (We also are big Jessica Alba fans but that is not the point)We use a bunch of different product from them for our baby including diapers, body wash, rash cream etc. The scent never bothers him or his skin like some other brands do and he always feels good after we use their products!

  • Really love the Honest brand. The diapers are expensive, but I think they are some of the best. Also really love the wipes. The wipes have a resealable top that is super helpful when trying to one handed a wipe during a diaper change!

  • I have tired a few things, clothes and some skincare but it’s the diapers for me. They are the best I’ve tried and our little one has very sensitive skin so these are the only ones that are affordable (as affordable as diapers can be) and the prints are fun for me!

  • I tried the putty blush from this brand, and absolutely hated it. It was like a brick of wax and it did not come out or blend well at all I think I may be used it twice and then got rid of it. Do not buy.

  • Honest Beauty really surprised me in the best way. I love that the brand is all about clean ingredients without sacrificing performance. The mascara is a standout—really lengthens and defines without clumping—and their tinted moisturizer gives that fresh, dewy look without feeling heavy. Some products are total wins, while others are just okay depending on your skin type (I found a couple of skincare items a bit too light for my dry skin), but overall the quality is great for the price point. Plus, I feel good about what I’m putting on my skin.
