An alcohol-free lotion for the topical application having sanitizing properties is made by combining an aqueous phase comprising water, a water soluble preservative, an antimicrobial active, and at least one humectant with an oil phase, wherein the at least one humectant is present in the aqueous phase in the range of from 5 to 30 wt. %, wherein the oil phase comprises an oil soluble preservative, at least one surfactant, and at least one oil, wherein the surfactant is present in the oil phase in the range of from about 20 to 60 wt. %, and wherein the aqueous phase to oil phase ratio is from about 12:1 to 1:2.

A wipe includes a cleansing composition disposed on a cloth. The cleansing composition can include an antiseptic, a humectant, an emollient, a surfactant, and a monohydric alcohol. A wipe can be made by preparing a cleansing composition and disposing the cleansing composition on a cloth. Two or more wipes may be included in a sealed package to maintain the sterile state of the wipes. A method of disinfecting skin can include applying a wipe to skin.
