This video is one in a series of short comprehensive skin health education programs that highlights the use of properly formulated wipes for cleaning and caring for infant skin.


Cleaning skin at every diaper change with properly formulated wipes has many benefits:

  • Removal of potential odors and trace irritants left behind
  • Wipes formulated at slightly acidic pH can help maintain healthy infant skin pH around 5 to 5.5
  • Emollients in wipes can help soften and moisturize skin to reduce friction during wiping
  • Baby wipes have been clinically proven to be as safe and effective to use on healthy infants and infants in the NICU compared to cloth and water
