Those who are without proper shower facilities at a music festival or while camping know the importance of cleaning wipes to stay fresh, but Epic Wipes look to help be a new way to cleanse without water. Funding now on Kickstarter, Epic Wipes are essentially oversized wipes that come in individual packs that are intended to be used once all over the body.
Infused with natural ingredients including calendula, chamomile and eucalyptus, the Epic Wipes are sixteen times larger than traditional cleaning wipes, which makes them ideal for makeshift showers when facilities aren't present.
Those looking to get their hands on Epic Wipes can make pledges as low as $14, which will get them four wipes in total, delivered within about six to seven weeks.
Key Themes Behind This Trend
- Waterless Cleansing Products
- There is an opportunity for innovative and eco-friendly waterless cleansing products that can be used in situations where traditional shower facilities are not available.
- Oversized Wipes
- There is a demand for larger-sized wipes that can cover a user's entire body for a more effective cleansing experience, encouraging the development of larger sized wipes for hand and body cleansing.
- Natural Ingredients
- The trend towards eco-friendly products also includes a desire for natural ingredients, so brands should consider using natural ingredients like chamomile and calendula to appeal to customers in eco-friendly markets.
Where This Applies
- Outdoor Recreation
- Companies that make hygienic products for outdoor activities can expand by creating wipes and cleansing products that are specifically marketed toward festival-goers and campers.
- Beauty and Personal Care
- Brands within the beauty and personal care industry can develop innovative, eco-friendly, and biodegradable products for situations where showers aren't available, such as music festivals and long commutes.
