Would you happen to have a link or product name or picture? When I google for "dry towelettes" I get facial cleaners, nothing that matches your description. Thanks!
Here's
one product from Neutrogena. Here's another from
Oil of Olay. There are generic ones at my local Safeway and Clearasil used to make a product that was the best...cut through road grim like a dream. All of these can be used in cold or hot water.

Part of the reason I carry these is to not carry the water of a wet wipe. Considering that my mode of travel already has a smaller foot print than an RVs, I figure a 1g piece of polyester in the solid waste stream isn't going to that bad. Of course, you should dispose of the used cloth in the proper manner.
