Advantages: Clean Bum

Disadvantages: Costly

If you don?t use moist toilet tissue, then you?re probably sitting there reading this opinion with bits of dried, crusted excrement around your anus.

If you spilt something soft and gooey on a table or work-surface, would you use a dry cloth to clean it up? No. You?d end up just smearing it around and making a worse mess than you started with. So why do we think we can do a good job cleaning our bums with dry paper?

If you?ve travelled to predominantly Muslim countries, then you often find facilities to wash yourself following defecation. I personally liked the high-powered retractable shower-head shaped implement on the side of the toilet in a hotel I stayed in, in Zanzibar. The next best thing available to us in our homes, is either to take a shower after every defecation, or to use moist toilet tissues.

?Andrew Moist Toilet Tissues are the perfect complement to dry toilet tissue for gentle and effective cleansing? ? so the packet says. Indeed, you will need to use dry toilet tissue as well ? in my opinion, to get rid of the excess initially, and then at the end to ensure a nice dry botty.

You can purchase them in hard pop-up tubs, ideal for the bathroom. Alternatively, they are available in cheaper flat plastic re-sealable refill packets. The trial size packs, containing 10 sheets, fit conveniently in ladies handbags etc, allowing you to take them anywhere. ?Enriched with aloe, they help you and your family feel clean and fresh at any time of day.?

- Soft
- Strong (your finger won?t poke through when wiping)
- Flushable (very important ? ordinary baby wipes have the potential to block your toilet)
- Dermatologically tested - well you wouldn?t want a chemical irritation rash around you back passage ? would you? It?s a good job too, just look at all the chemicals used to manufacture them:

Aqua, Propylene Glycol, Aloe Barbadensis, Polysorbate 20, Tetrasodium EDTA, Disodium Cocoamphodiacet
ate and Sodium Laureth Sulphate, PPG-12-PEG-50 Lanolin, 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1, 3-Diol, Parfum, Citric Acid, Benzyl Alcohol, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone

By the way, if you have macerator toilet ? then you should check with the manufacturer before trying to see whether you toilet can finely chop these tissues.

So, how much will these hygienic little wipes cost you? Well, buying the large refill pack means that the cost is approximately 3.9p per sheet. Vastly expensive when you consider that a sheet of dry Andrex paper costs under 0.2p per sheet. However, if you don?t want to be sitting in your own excrement all day, then it?s worth every penny.

Ladies - if your husband is leaving skid marks in his pants - then these could be the answer.
