9696| bc-inci | ingredients | disputed | A web search summary of Simple's UK page for the biodegradable exfoliating wipes gives an alphabetical INCI list with Potassium Sorbate and Sodium Benzoate and without Dehydroacetic Acid, which may be a newer formula; the page answers HTTP 403 to both fetchers, so that list is not recorded here. | ^simplebio |
9797| gb-front-2023 | images | unknown | No back-of-pack photo: the printed ingredient list, the manufacturer address and any origin statement are unread. | ^off |
9898| | relationships | unknown | Prefix 8710847 is on packs of many Unilever brands sold in the UK, France and elsewhere; no source names the licensee or the prefix length, so nothing is written to a company's gs1_prefixes. | |
9999| | markets | unknown | Morrisons (product 111101314) and Superdrug (product 790898) list a 20-wipe Simple exfoliating pack by search-result title; both answer HTTP 403, so name, price and barcode are unread. | |
100100| | relationships | unknown | The maker of the wipes: Amazon.co.uk gives Unilever as manufacturer and United Kingdom as country of origin, and no pack photo shows a manufacturing statement. | ^amzuk |

## About <!--about-->
Simple Kind to Skin Biodegradable Exfoliating Wipes are double-sided facial wipes for cleansing and exfoliating, sold in a pack of 20 wipes of 180 x 165 mm under the Simple skincare brand.[^off] The front names the Kind to Skin range, says the wipes are for sensitive skin and biodegradable, and asks buyers not to flush them.[^off] Retailers describe the wipes as made from plant-based fibres that biodegrade in 42 days under home and industrial composting, with aloe vera, pro-vitamin B5 and vitamin E in the lotion.[^britishchemist][^justmylook] Simple is a British brand of skincare for sensitive skin, developed in 1960 by the Albion Group and owned by Unilever since 2010.[^wiki] Amazon has listed the pack since April 2020.[^amzes]

The biodegradable 20-wipe pack shares the Kind to Skin front design of the earlier 25-wipe exfoliating pack, and Simple's UK site files its biodegradable exfoliating wipes page under that older pack's number.[^simplebio] Amazon.co.uk gives the United Kingdom as country of origin and Unilever as manufacturer.[^amzuk]
