You loved sipping that glass of red but how do you deal with horrendous stains on your teeth?

Wine wipes promise to erase those stains and clean your smile.

The best products available on the market even have a pleasant flavor that doesn’t interfere with wine tasting.

But which wine wipes are the best? Which ones are the best value for money? This guide tries to answer these questions and more.

What Are Wine Wipes?

One of the best gifts for a lover of red wine is wine wipes. They are oral cleansing wipes designed to remove red wine stains from the teeth.

Particularly useful during wine tastings or social gatherings, this product helps you maintain a beautiful smile when it’s not possible to brush your teeth.

Since the original Wine Wipes emerged on the market, many other manufacturers started to produce teeth wipes.

Some of the wipes available on today’s market clean not only wine stains, but also stains of coffee, tobacco, and other foods or drinks.

Similar to wet wipes, this product comes either in individually wrapped pouches or in compact cases with mirror.

Are Wine Wipes Really Necessary?

Whether you need wine wipes or not depends on your drinking habits.

Are you drinking wine only at home? Or do you also enjoy a sip at the restaurant or at your friend’s party?

To be honest, I’ve never met a wine lover who refused a glass of good red just because they weren’t at home.

But red wine stains your teeth regardless of where you drink it.

And while it’s easy to brush your teeth when you’re drinking at home, it’s unlikely to carry a toothbrush and toothpaste with you at social gatherings or wine tastings.

On these occasions, it’s easier to have a wine wipe in your handbag or pocket. Easy to use, discreet to carry, and very easy to dispose of, wine wipes will help you have a brilliant smile at all times.

And the only downside of wine wipes is that they rub off lipstick too. This could be less appealing to our lady friends, yet it’s more convenient to put on new makeup than showing an all-stained smile.

The Different Types Of Wine Wipes

There are two types of wine wipes on the market.

And even if this article is dedicated to only one type, you should know what options you have… just in case.

Oral Cleansing Wipes

Oral cleansing wine wipes are the ones described above.

As their name suggests, these wipes are used to clean your teeth and palate after drinking wine or other drinks that stain the enamel, such as coffee or tea.

These wipes can also be used with success after smoking or chewing tobacco.

According to the manufacturer of the original Wine Wipes, to achieve the best results, it is indicated to rub your teeth with a wipe before consuming staining drinks or foods, then rub your teeth again after consumption.

While this practice makes it easier to clean your oral cavity, we’ve found that rubbing your teeth only after eating or drinking also has satisfactory results.

Stain Removing Wipes

Stain removing wipes are also designed to remove wine stains but from fabrics.

There are dozens of brands to choose from and the wipes are soaked in a cleansing agent that remove wine stains from garments and upholstery.

Easy to use and dispose of, these wipes are particularly useful on the go; after all, incidents can always happen and it’s easier to clean a fresh stain that a dry one.

The only thing to pay attention to is the action of the wipe on your garments. It is recommended to first clean a small piece of fabric in a hidden area and see if there is any discoloration.

In most cases, stain removing wipes are formulated to act on stains alone, but it’s always good to check beforehand.

Leaving you with a confident and radiant smile, the wipes are also formulated to freshen up your breath.

Just wrap the wipe around a finger and rub it on your teeth for a quick removal of all stains.

Made in the USA, these wipes are safe to use and free of harsh chemical agents. The whitening agents are peroxide and sodium bicarbonate, which is the same substance found in baking soda.

The flavoring agents are the preservatives are also similar to those used in toothpaste.

Another thing we like is the aftertaste. A fresh mint flavor adds freshness to the breath and leaves the mouth feeling clean.

However, the strong mint aftertaste interferes with the taste of the wine, therefore we wouldn’t recommend using these wipes during a wine tasting event.

Apart from this minor drawback, the wipes do exactly what they are supposed to do and come with a 100% money back satisfaction guarantee.

If you don’t like the product for any reason, just contact the manufacturer to claim a full refund.

Coming in an attractive vintage package, the wipes are also great to use on lips. They remove lipstick too but certainly wipe away the unflattering red wine stains.

Moreover, the wipes are great to use for multiple purposes, including to clean coffee or tea stains.

Perfect for all wine lovers, this product makes a wonderful gift. The price is also great and in the end, we just love that these wipes are designed specifically for wine lovers.

On a positive note, the wipes are amazing in cleaning away all stains. They prevent enamel discoloration and the compact case with mirror makes them easy to use in a discreet place regardless of where you are.

Ideal for traveling, the designer’s case is made of metal.

Another thing we don’t really like is the bulk package. On one hand, it’s nice to have all wipes stored in a nice case which is easier to find in a bag.

On the other hand, the wipes dry out quite quickly once you’ve opened the case. So, that’s a thing to account for.

We also like the cruelty-free certification. The product is not tested on animals and contains mostly natural ingredients.

Moreover, due to antimicrobial properties, the wipes prevent the formation of plaque and effectively remove the unpleasant film that builds up on teeth after drinking wine or coffee.

Coming in a box of 20, the wipes are wrapped individually and easy to carry in a handbag or pocket.
