Choosing the right baby care products might seem straightforward at first: nappies, wipes and towels are all part of the essential kit. In practice, however, unclear sizing, overblown product claims and unsuitable ingredients can quickly lead to poor purchases. This is especially true for newborns and sensitive skin, so it pays to take a close look at weight, material, composition and usage.
Age is not a reliable guide for the right nappy fit. What really matters is your baby's body weight, as well as how the nappy sits around the tummy and legs. A nappy that is too small can cause pressure marks and leak more easily. One that is too large may not fit snugly enough.
Typical weight ranges for standard sizes:
Weight ranges can vary by brand and cut, so always follow the information on the packaging.
Labels like "sensitive", "gentle" or "natural" are not enough on their own to go by. You should also check whether baby wipes contain alcohol, perfume, colourants or other fragrances. For sensitive or irritation-prone skin, fragrance-free wipes or alcohol-free wipes can be a sensible option.
A high water content does not automatically mean every product has the same formulation either. It is still worth checking the full ingredients list.
Bulk packs often lower the cost per item, but they are not practical if the fit or skin compatibility is not right. With nappies and wipes, it is best to try a smaller quantity first. Only then does it make sense to buy a larger stock-up pack.
When choosing baby nappies, look for an elasticated waistband, well-fitting leg cuffs and enough freedom of movement. A wetness indicator can make checks easier with newborn nappies, but it does not replace regular nappy checks.
Product descriptions often mention an absorbent core, inner channels or extra leak guards. These features should be seen as technical specifications, not a guarantee of complete leak protection. A good fit and timely changes remain essential.
With Pampers nappies, different models may claim dermatological testing, OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 and 0% intentionally added EU perfume allergens. These claims come from the manufacturer and should be cross-checked against the information on the actual packaging.
For everyday use, 99% water wipes or gentle baby wipes with a short ingredients list can be worth considering. Products with 99% water still contain other components, such as preservatives or pH adjusters.
Practical features to look for:
Wipes should always go in the general waste bin, not down the toilet. Even wipes labelled as biodegradable can cause blockages.
Cotton baby towels, muslin cloths for babies and baby bath towels should be soft, absorbent and large enough. For cotton, the material specification, number of layers and care instructions are useful points of comparison. Multi-layered textiles can absorb more moisture but may take longer to dry.
Before first use, it is advisable to wash them according to the manufacturer's instructions. For sensitive skin, try to avoid any detergent residue. Products with care instructions such as machine wash at 40 °C, no bleach and air drying should be treated accordingly to preserve their shape and material.

We have put together a full, regularly updated list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the safety regulations in force across the EU.
The essentials include nappies in the right weight range, a skin-friendly cleansing solution, soft cotton or muslin cloths, and at least one generously sized bath towel. It is best to keep your choice of care products simple. For sensitive skin, a short, clear ingredients list is a good idea.
Unopened products should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. With wipes, always reseal the pack carefully after each use. Always follow the specific expiry and batch information on the packaging. Opened wipes should be used before they dry out.
Pay attention to how your baby's skin reacts individually, and introduce new products one at a time where possible. If redness or irritation occurs, stop using the product. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice. Nappies should be changed regularly, and wipes should not be used on broken skin.
