Why Pampers Nappies & Baby Wipes are the Best Nappy Change Duo
Have you ever walked into a supermarket and felt overwhelmed with all the options? How do you know which nappies and baby wipes are good for your little one’s skin? A lot of baby wipes seem to offer the same cleaning benefits, so does it even matter which one you pick? Aren’t they all the same? If you’ve found yourself asking this question, you’re in the right place. We’ll explain how not all baby wipes are the same and what to look out for when choosing baby wipes.
Your Baby’s Skin
The skin is our largest sensory organ, and the same applies for your baby. Even from the early days of life, your baby’s skin serves several essential functions, such as protecting your little one from environmental irritants and infection. For this reason, it’s important that the skin is well taken care of to maintain good condition. However, your baby’s skin isn’t the easiest to clean – especially around the nappy area – as their skin has many folds and creases. Plus, the skin in this area is often exposed to excessive humidity from urine, sweat, and poop, which can increase the skin’s pH levels, and might lead to nappy rash.
So, what about baby wipes? How can they help keep your baby’s skin in good condition?
The Importance of Skin pH
The skin’s pH level is critical in maintaining its healthy condition and helping with the first line of defence against infection. As with adult skin, a mature infant’s skin has a pH value between 4.5 and 5.5. However, exposure to urine and poo in the nappy area can lead to an increased skin pH level. When this happens, your baby’s skin can become more prone to irritation and even develop nappy rash.
That is why picking the right combination of baby wipes – to clean and protect the skin –and nappies to keep it dry matters.
Pampers Nappy and Wipe Combination – Our Formula to Help Protect Healthy Skin
Using Pampers’ nappies and wipes in combination offers your baby’s skin protection and care.

All Pampers Baby Wipes are intentionally designed and formulated to ensure efficiency and comfort for your baby. They can help remove mess quickly, conveniently, and gently, while also helping to restore the skin’s natural pH and maintain it in good condition. Our nappies also help in protecting your little one’s skin!
