This is a sponsored post about bathroom habits written by me on behalf of Cottonelle.
And no, I’m not talking about brushing our teeth, friends. Little um…*ahem* lower.
You know, down there.
I realized recently I’ve clearly failed in the teaching of all the bathroom habits in this house. Not for everyone, but trust me when I tell you that the whole notion of having clean tissue sightings after a bowel movement has evaded multiple people who reside in this house.
And that’s not good. Really, it’s sad. And bad. And leaves me feeling less than glad.
Because what happens in the bathroom needs to stay in the bathroom.
And here you were, thinking ERMAGHERD she’s totally not going to talk about the wiping of the bum and poo, not Brett, not on the internet?!
But I am.
Because….as that book tells us,
Everyone Poops.
Which means everyone wipes. Or should.
But they don’t always excel at wiping. I mean, you really have to be thorough when you wipe.
Plus there’s always those “out of the ordinary” situations that leave you wondering if things will ever be cleaned up down there, and what to do with all the tissue.
Deep breaths.
I’m done talking about poo. Today we’re going to focus on the removal of the evidence from all parts of your person.
Many families who have small children have baby wipes around. That’s all nice, and we are in that cloud, but come ON. I’m 39 years old. I think I can handle a little something more than a baby wipe. Besides- I keep those in the car to wipe hands and to get coffee spills of my shirt. (No joke. A few brands of wipes are equally effective at removing minor stains from shirts. Try them). In my bathroom? I need a little something more.
We’ve grown accustomed to having wet wipes available for so many things in our lives nowadays. It’s only logical that we’d have them to use in the bathroom- and really, isn’t that one of the areas we want to be as clean as clean can be? With Cottonelle’s Cleansing Cloths, we can have a clean, happy bottom every time we use the loo. The Cleansing Cloths come in a nice discreet container that will blend in any decor scheme. I’m finding I want to actually get some fun fabric and mod podge and have some fun making it look awesome!
Speaking of the “loo,” you may have noticed Cherry Healey, a journalist from the UK. She’s funny and she’s come “across the pond” to talk about bums with us. Yes, she’s here in the USA to talk about our bathroom routines and why we should be using cleansing cloths. I find her hilarious- but I’m partial to British humor anyway. Keep an eye out, or search around the internet for the #LetsTalkAboutBums hashtag- you’ll see lots and lots of Cherry’s wisdom and humor! More importantly- you’ll also see a little bit more about the WHY we need to revamp our bathroom habits and start using wipes and cleansing cloths.
Cottonelle wants to get you talking about your bum and on a better way to clean “down there” by using the Cottonelle Clean Routine. By combining the use of Cottonelle Toilet Paper and Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloths, the Cottonelle Clean Routine is a revolutionary way to keep your bum cleaner.

Danielle @ We Have It All says
LOL You’re hilarious! I have to agree about those other wipes, I keep them on hand for messes on shirts and spills on the carpet – they work! I have not tired these Cottonelle wipes though. I do like that container. I’ll have to try them out.
Healy Harpster says
We used Cottonelle toilet paper and that is the only brand name allowed in our bathroom because of its high quality… I’ll check the Cottonelle wipes and start stocking.
Meagan says
I love the little container!
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell says
It makes quick work of clean-up , rather than wiping and wiping and wiping and wondering when it will end!
Kristin says
Flushable wipes are a lifesaver when you have little ones!! I’ve got 4 of them! lol
Melanie a/k/a CrazyMom says
I love the new discreet container…. looks awesome in the bathroom and I love that “What happens in the bathroom stays in the bathroom”.. soo true.. let’s keep it there and keep our bums clean along the way…. great post.. thanks for sharing
Stacey Myers says
This is a great post! I especially love the pictures. I have watch the video from Cherry – very funny. Looking forward o more about keeping our bums clean!
Sophie S says
I grew up with a bidet, so I am glad everyone else is finally getting behind truly clean bums.
Hanan says
I so wish that were true. However, I have three all under six. Those wipes are great for after potty training, when they still need a little help!
Heather says
Finally! Now I won’t have to snag the kids baby wipes :0)
Flush able wipes are awesome.
Makes potty training a dream!
Ashley - Embracing Beauty says
haha You crack me up! I’ve heard so much about those wipes though…I really should buy them for our family, especially since they come in such a discreet container!
Dawn Lopez says
You are just cracking me up here!! Laughing out loud.. and glad I am not sipping on a beverage!
I really love the look of the wipes! Totally grabbing some!
Francine says
We are a cottonelle family!!!
Becca @ Mama B says
Flushable wipes are a Godsend! Especially for me with a little boy who insists on doing it all by himself 😉
Shop with Me Mama says
love Cottonelle! Great post!
Ashley says
Great post! I use Cottonelle and their wipes as well – I really need to pick up one of the new dispensers though!
Ave says
Lol! Really like the first photo! Here in Spain it’s really normal to use wet wipes. I have tried Cottonelle’s wet toilet paper (I think it was called that), and I really liked it.
Ronnie says
I had no idea adults use them cleansing clothes until I discovered them in a bathroom once and questioned what in the world they were doing there. It’s actually a smart, sanitary idea!
Carmen's Coupon Blog says
I have an 11 mos old that I would love to start potty training soon so I will need these wipes with her.. to make sure she cleans down there good.. I love this post by the way.. its also funny.. and your kids are probably going to die if they ever read this lol
Beth says
The wipes seem really useful when you have little ones around! 🙂
Malia says
I need to get some of those flushable wipes. I have baby wipes, but they aren’t flushable. Need them for my daughter who is potty training!
Cyndie says
Love their products and the wipes are great!
Debra says
Those wipes are the best especially with younger ones, who are just starting to go potty by themselves!
Emerald says
I really want to try those. They are perfect for “that time of the month”
Janeane Davis says
It is good to see people talking about the importance of being clean ALL over and under.
Angela says
You make me smile, Brett. I love your humor. I actually got this dispenser recently and am very pleased with it.
Janel C says
My kids always tell me they wipe, but unless I’m acting as a bum monitor checking for clean tissue, they often don’t do a good enough job. We are a big fan of the kids flushable wipes so these just make sense!
Danielle - Woven Stars & Chocolate Bars says
Absolutely. We love these around here too. Thank you for the humor!
Amy Desrosiers says
I LOVE Cottonelle Fresh Wipes because they do indeed get me feeling super clean.
Susan says
I have been using the wipes for years, makes all the difference… My would family are big fans.
Daisy says
Those wipes are awesome since I have a little one that I still have to wipe for.
Marina says
Oh yeah! Wipes rock especially when on the go and with little ones in tow!
Pam says
I tell you, Brett, those wipes are lifesavers when I am traveling. 🙂
