Let me guess. You’re still using only dry toilet paper to wipe your butt. I’m sorry to tell you this, but that’s a big no-no. Did you know that you’re actually not completely clean down there when you wipe with basic toilet paper?
If you’re using flushable wet wipes, then I have bad news: those so-called flushable wet wipes are not actually flushable. Each year, millions of wet wipes create giant blockages in the sewage, which in turn pollute the ocean. The problem with wet wipes is that they take up to 100 years to biodegrade.
Wet wipes can also irritate the skin and even trigger contact dermatitis, a red, itchy rash. For example, if you put some chocolate on your hand and wiped it with a dry toilet and looked with UV-A light, you would see that it’s still dirty, but if you apply the foam on the toilet paper and then wipe, it would clean it completely.
Now that I’ve grossed you out with the realities of using dry toilet paper and wet wipes let me introduce you to the best solution for keeping your tush clean: toilet paper foam.

Toilet paper foam is a new product on the market that is revolutionizing the way we wipe our butts. Toilet paper foam is a soft, foamy material that is applied to dry toilet paper before wiping. The best part about toilet paper foam is that it’s completely flushable and biodegradable.
Toilet paper foam is also much more gentle on the skin than dry toilet paper or wet wipes. In fact, many people who use toilet paper foam find that it helps to soothe and protect their skin.
If you’re looking for the best way to keep your bottom clean, then look no further than toilet paper foam!
Without further ado, let’s take a look at the best toilet paper foam on the market!
1) Fohm: Touchless Foam Dispenser
Fohm is a touchless foam dispenser that is way better than any other solution, even a bidet, and that’s because it costs a lot less. Installation is super easy. You have to stick it on the wall next to dry toilet paper using the included adhesive. You don’t have to move seats as you would with a bidet, and it also provides the same hygienic and cleaning properties as a bidet and wet wipe would.
The dispenser activates when you place your hand with the dry toilet paper beneath it. It will then drop just enough cleansing foam onto the paper to fully clean your buttocks.
Fohm transforms your ordinary toilet paper into a soothing experience with ingredients like witch hazel and aloe, keeping your pH levels in check. It is 100% flushable and friendly to the environment.

2) Qleanse: Toilet Paper Foam Spray
Qleanse is a toilet paper foam spray that comes in a bottle that you hang next to your toilet paper. Unlike Fohm, where you don’t have to touch it, with Qleanse, you have to use one hand to hold the bottle spray and the other for toilet paper.
It’s also 100% flushable and biodegradable, so it’s safe for the sewer pipes and septic. Because it’s plant-based, you don’t have to worry about any parabens, dyes, toxins, synthetic fragrances, phthalates, and alcohol, making it safe for your butt.
You can get Qleanse with a fresh scent of lavender that helps soothe and protect the skin or without any fragrance.

3) Tushé: Toilet Paper Foam Dispenser & Spray
Unlike Fohm, which only has a dispenser, Tushé has a dispenser and a spray. The dispenser is also touchless, waterproof, and rechargeable. The build quality is premium, and you stick it to the wall or have it sit close to your toilet in arm’s reach.
The foam is pH balanced with natural ingredients like Aloe Vera, which moisturizes your skin. There’s also witch hazel to reduce irritation and redness on your skin. And let’s not forget Vitamin E, which works to protect and nourish your skin.
The batteries inside the dispenser will last more than 90 days and are rechargeable. If you splash some water on top of it, don’t worry because the dispenser is IPX6 waterproof.
The spray bottle will last you around 150 wipes, while the refill bottle for the dispenser is equal to about 500 wet wipes. The foam is made in the USA, and it’s pH balanced, cruelty-free, 100% vegan, and paraben-free.

5) Refresh Liquid Wipe Foam
Refresh Liquid Wipe products are made in the USA. The company prides itself on standing for traditional American values, defense of the constitution, and all that, but what about the product – is it good?
As with all of these foams on the list, this one is also eco-friendly and an alternative to the so-called flushable wet wipes. Flushable wet wipes are a menace to plumbing because they eventually clog pipes and pollute the environment.
Refresh is a zero-waste, sustainable alternative that is applied directly to toilet paper as a foam to make a custom flushable wipe. It has aloe and witch hazel ingredients, which soothe, cleanse and promote good hygiene.
Because the foam comes in a bottle, it’s perfect when you’re traveling. You can use it anywhere you’d like, be it in bushes somewhere in the wild or on a road trip.
Refresh Liquid Wipe foam is available in 50ml and 250ml bottles. The 50ml is great for carrying because of its size, and the 250ml is best suited for the home.
Conclusion
So, what can you do to make sure your pipes don’t get clogged and cause a sewage backup in your home? The answer is simple—stop using flushable wet wipes. Yes, they may be convenient, but they are not actually flushable and will wreak havoc on your plumbing. Instead, opt for toilet paper foam which is 100 times better at breaking down in the water and won’t cause any damage to your pipes.
Not to mention, it’s also better for your skin! So, ditch the wet wipes and make the switch to toilet paper foam today. Your plumbing will thank you!
