Yes, you can use cotton wool pads on a baby, especially for cleaning and nappy changing.
Cotton wool pads, particularly those designed for babies, are made from soft and absorbent materials that are gentle on delicate skin. For example, Little Angels cotton wool pads are made from 100% pure cotton. This makes them suitable for various uses, including:
- Cleaning: Wiping the baby's face, hands, and body.
- Nappy changing: Cleaning the nappy area.
When using cotton wool pads on a baby, consider the following:
- Choose the right type: Opt for pads specifically designed for babies, as they are usually softer and less likely to leave fibers behind.
- Use with water or mild cleanser: Moisten the pad with lukewarm water or a baby-safe cleanser before use.
- Be gentle: Avoid rubbing the skin harshly. Pat or wipe gently.
- Dispose of properly: Discard used pads in a waste bin.
While cotton wool pads are generally safe, always supervise use and be mindful of any potential allergies or sensitivities.
