What the sources say about these ties
- Unilever owns
- Alberto-Culver's Form 8-K records the merger completing on 10 May 2011, leaving it an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Unilever; the brand's own UK site is published by Unilever UK and carries a Unilever copyright line. Wikipedia dates the ownership to 2010, the year of the agreement, and says Simple was formally taken over about six months later.
Built from the ownership rows on the brand and company pages, each cited where it is recorded. Made in is the country of production on this product's record; the GS1 prefix of a barcode names the issuing organisation, not where the product was made.
About this product
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.[4] The front names the Kind to Skin range, says the wipes are for sensitive skin and biodegradable, and asks buyers not to flush them.[4] 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.[5][1] Simple is a British brand of skincare for sensitive skin, developed in 1960 by the Albion Group and owned by Unilever since 2010.[6] Amazon has listed the pack since April 2020.[3]
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.[7] Amazon.co.uk gives the United Kingdom as country of origin and Unilever as manufacturer.[8]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- Context: 2 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- Specifications: 0 / 1 · Recorded specifications mapped to comparable property keys
- 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.
- images · unknown: No back-of-pack photo: the printed ingredient list, the manufacturer address and any origin statement are unread.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
