For the women, having your time of the month at a festival is not ideal, but make sure you’re prepared for it. This is a good point to mention she-wees. Avoid having to lug yourself down to the portaloos by bringing a she-wee if you can bring yourself to use one. Food & Drink Do not forget these. These are the absolute essentials to get you into the festival and enjoying yourself. This could save you a small fortune over the weekend and means you can even get your hands on a cup of tea when the stalls are closed. If you don’t trust yourself to keep hold of your phone, invest in a cheap pay as you go handset with your friends’ numbers saved. You won’t have to worry too much if you lose it and the battery should last longer too!

Prepping the wipes for use is also easy: you just soak them in water in the fresh container with a little bit of the relevant essential oil. You’ll have to go through a little trial and error to work out what moistness works for you. A smaller bag for you to carry around with you in the day. You’ll need enough room for money, your phone, a bottle of water and any other drinks.You will need suitable footwear if you don’t want blisters and sore feet all weekend. Wellies are the usual choice but walking boots are better for comfort. As well as 94 percent water, Mama Bamboo infuses their wipes with aloe vera and coconut extract. The intention is to make them as soothing as possible, and certainly aloe vera has healing properties, but in the strength it’s present in these wipes? We remain unconvinced, but we didn’t notice any rashes or irritation and our kids’ skin is pretty sensitive. We liked that these wipes are compostable – they will break down in three months in your compost bin – a vast improvement on sending plastic wipes to landfill. The Cheeky Wipes team spends most days talking about poo, pee, and periods and loves a chance to help today’s consumers make the switch.

It leaves skin feeling so fresh that there’s no doubt some mamas will borrow these for make-up removal! Despite the organisers of Glastonbury enforcing a strong waste policy [1] that advises attendees to avoid bringing disposable and biodegradable wipes, many festivalgoers are still expected to use thousands of single-use wipes over the long weekend. However, Cheeky Wipes, an East Sussex-based SME, has the perfect solution for festivalgoers who want to ditch the single-use wipes without compromising on cleanliness – their range of reusable wipes. If it’s not welly weather, sturdy shoes can offer the necessary support needed for being on your feet all day.

3. Dry shampoo

A lightweight gym or swimming towel will be perfect for drying off after rain or if you manage to find a coveted festival shower. As we mentioned, baby wipes cause chaos in wastewater pipes, which leads to sewage overspill. Not only this, but the wipes can generate plastic pollution as they find their way into rivers and oceans, damaging ecosystems and harming aquatic life. Even wipes that are put into the bin can take up to 100 years to disappear from landfill if they aren’t biodegradable.

Next is a towel and toilet paper. Showers are certainly optional at festivals, but bring a towel in case you do fancy being clean. This won’t just be useful for our previous point. Towels are helpful in many situations. With the British weather, it’s easier just to expect rain, so a towel is vital for drying off your damp self when returning to your tent. Wearing damp clothing puts you at risk of getting a fungal skin infection according to Healthline. 6. Don’t forget to brush

The best baby wipes to buy in 2023

You need to make sure you’re prepared for the elements. We all want a weekend of glorious sun and blue skies which is rarely granted in the UK. Always make sure you’ve got a waterproof coat with you. Being damp all weekend isn’t the best way to enjoy a festival. We all want to look our best at festivals. Whether it be the fashion we see at Coachella or the crazy attires at Boomtown. Take whatever crazy items you find and dress however you like. We also offer a range of classic hoodies and stylish polo t shirts to choose from to help keep you feeling comfortable and looking cool when out in the fields. Now this section is not necessary but is still worth mentioning. If you want to buy every bit of food and drink at a festival, be our guest. But like most of us, festival food and drink are too expensive to sustain us all weekend. Bringing dry foods like pot noodles can be great with boiling water available at many stalls. If you want to live a more luxurious festival life, bring gas and a camping stove and cook your own meals. List Summary
