Babies’ skin in the nappy area, is under constant attack. Humidity, combined with pee and poo can increase the skin pH, which can activate the skin digesting enzymes released by poo, and this can lead to skin irritation and rashes. Pampers® Wipes offer superior care for babies’ delicate skin by helping to restore and maintain the skin’s pH to a healthy level, better than using cotton and water. This is particularly important in the case of newborn skin which can have naturally higher pH levels, increasing susceptibility to infections. Baby wipes are also a convenient and hygienic option for parents to help keep their baby clean and help keep their skin protected and comfortable, at home or on-the-go. Pampers® baby wipes made of a soft, cloth-like material, with a unique blend of fibre shapes and sizes which keep them absorbent, and flexible to pick up mess from every crease and curve of the skin while staying gentle. Our wipes also contain gentle emulsifying cleansers to help pick up water-insoluble oily mess and remove the bacteria and enzymes that can cause skin irritation.

Pampers nappies are designed to keep baby’s skin dry and comfortable and our wipes are designed to gently clean the skin and help maintain a natural pH. Over the past several decades, multiple clinical studies have shown Pampers wipes to be mild, safe and effective cleaning products that can care for baby’s skin. The studies also showed that the use of Pampers wipes can restore and maintain skin’s natural pH level, and lead to less erythema, helping maintain the health of your baby’s skin. Recent scientific studies, comparing two unique nappy and wipe combinations, showed that the combined use of a Pampers emollient-containing nappy and Pampers wipe helped restore the skin’s natural pH while reducing residual enzymatic activity. A study conducted in 2020 showed that the use of an emollient-containing nappy like Pampers® nappies, and pH-buffered wipe regimen helped restore the skin’s natural pH and helped reduced residual enzymatic activity, confirming that Pampers® Baby Wipes, used in combination with Pampers® Nappies, can help reduce nappy dermatitis.
