Why Use Baby Wipes?

Properly formulated (aka pH-balanced)
baby wipes help keep tiny tushies
healthy. See why wipe pH matters:

Protect that skin:

Healthy infant skin is slightly acidic, and it’s important to keep it that way—otherwise, the skin forms tiny tears that can lead to diaper rash. Water’s pH doesn’t match baby skin, so water alone isn’t the best cleaner. Learn why pH-balanced baby wipes are ideal.

Gentle does it:

Baby wipes are designed to glide over skin. Cloth wipes and paper towels are more abrasive, which can irritate your baby’s skin and open the door to rash-causing bacteria.

Keep out the nasties:

Mold and bacteria thrive in water, which is why store-bought baby wipes contain skin-safe preservatives to keep them safe and fresh. A spray bottle of water and a cloth can’t offer that protection.

Squeaky clean:

Poop and pee contain irritants that damage skin, so it’s important to get every bit off—even the bits you can’t see. Baby wipes contain gentle cleansers to whisk away irritating residues that water leaves behind.

All Huggies® wipes are hypoallergenic and dermatologist-tested, so you can feel confident using them on your baby’s skin.

Absolutely. All Huggies® wipes are 100% safe for babies of all ages and stages.

It means the product has met strict standards set by leading skin and allergy experts, including tests for sensitivity, irritation, and toxicity, and that its ingredients are free of known allergens and irritants. All that to say, if The National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance™ is on it, you can feel confident using it on even the most delicate skin.

First, shield yourself from unexpected splashes by placing a wipe over your baby’s penis. (You never know when they’re gonna go!) Next, wipe gently front to back, wiping away from the testicles to clean off any clinging bits of poop. Once he’s completely clean, remove the wipe from his penis before putting on a new diaper.

Wiping front to back is always best! Otherwise, you might accidentally wipe poop residue into the vaginal area, which can cause infections. Be sure to gently wipe around every crease, so all the mess is whisked away before putting on a clean diaper.
