Why BareSwipe?
Most travel wipes leave something behind — a chemical smell, a sticky residue, or an alcohol sting. BareSwipe was built to be different.
Food-grade acid base
Formulated with citric and lactic acids — the same acids found in everyday foods. No harsh mystery chemicals.
Truly scent-free & flavor-free
No fragrance oils. No masking scents. Nothing for a curious bear's nose to find interesting — just clean, bare freshness.
TSA-friendly single-serve
Pocket-sized packets that sail through security and fit your carry-on, hip pack, or day bag. No liquids, no leaks, no 3.4 oz math.
Safe when dried
The wipe is safe for humans once the surface is dry, making it a practical choice for on-the-go cleansing.
Born at the edge of bear country.
In Colorado's backcountry, what you smell like matters. Scented wipes, lotions, and toiletries can attract wildlife to campsites and packs — which is why rangers tell you to pack out anything fragranced.
BareSwipe was founded in Denver to fix that: a completely scent-free, flavor-free wipe you can use at the trailhead, on the trail, or at 30,000 feet without announcing yourself to a bear's nose — or the person in seat 22B.
- Built for hikers, campers, and the REI crowd who already know the scent rules.
- Made for travelers — dry-format single-serve packets that belong in every carry-on.
- One wipe, every adventure: glove box, gym bag, pack pocket, passport wallet.
How it works
A simple ritual for the trail, the terminal, and everywhere in between.
Tear open
Single-serve packet. No bulky canister, no dried-out wipes.
Wipe & cleanse
Use on hands, surfaces, or gear to wipe away residue and grime.
