If you take diapers as an example, then in Russia they are selling them annually, external than 300 mb. dollars. Every year, the turnover of hygienic agents increases by 15-20%. All other children's products, like talc, soap, shampoo, cream and wet wipes become increasingly popular.
What are wet wipes?
This hygiene remedy included in our life about ten years ago, and today we no longer imagine any travel, no hiking, or care for the child and yourself without wet napkins. Consider them closer . Non-woven natural and artificial material. It can be:
- aired,

Materials are slightly soft, they are pleasant to the touch. A high-quality napkin in its composition has a cotton that absorbs well and keeps moisture. Fabric base is impregnated with antibacterial composition, which large companies Keeps in great secrecy. Also, wet wipes for newborns contain cream components, lotions and purified water ions. Wet napkins Children flavored with pleasant smells to disguise the smell of chemical components.

They can be wiped and pens and ass, if the tap with running water is not available. Of course, the ideal option for flushing tracks after defecation is running water, but wet napkins come to resist difficult situations. Due to its composition, they are gently cleaned, easily disinfect, give silkness, freshness and gentle aroma leather crumbs.
Children's wet wipes are very helpful in complex everyday situations. But it should be remembered that all the time cannot be used, since many samples are impregnated with aggressive substances, causing allergic skin reactions in some cases. Parents need to be borne in mind that acids, alkali and other substances that can cause skin redness can be in the composition of hygiene.
In this regard, when buying is required Read the composition carefully, learn the instructions and check whether the expiration date corresponds to today. If the manufacturer is honest, he will definitely indicate information about himself. Report that there is a quality certificate, the admission of dermatologists, registration in health authorities, will indicate the address by which it can be found if desired.
Choose hygiene products for a child, paying attention to their number in the package. Purchase a large package for home, for example, where the napkins will be about 100 pieces. For walking on the site, on the road, get smaller - 20-30 pieces.
Requirements for baby napkins
In general, when buying a commodity, we, first of all, look at the convenience, quality, appearance, read information about the manufacturer and description. Getting ready to purchase wet wipes for the baby, we are lost in the assortment and do not know what to choose. It is not easy to choose necessary thingIf you do not have the idea of \u200b\u200bthe requirements for the product and its characteristics. What should be wet napkins for children? Talk about quality parameters:
How to choose napkins?
The hygiene market is filled to failure. Different manufacturers Advertise your goods as if it is impossible to do without it. Our task is to believe them or not. Often we are confused at the counters and do not know which products prefer. Controlling organizations help us in this. Recently, an examination of goods of some brands was carried out, along with Huggies, Pampers, Johnson "S Baby, Merries. What have studied research:
Experts of "Roskontrol" call on moms not to use wet wipes constantly. They are used only when there is no possibility of a child to wash high quality. Antibacterial components in the composition of impregnates destroy the natural protection of the skin, flushing the useful microflora on its surface. This leads to violations in immune system and skin diseases. Do not hold the child in sterility, let the baby immunity to show their protective properties.
Mom experience
According to moments, you can come to the conclusion that there is no single opinion. Some use the firm's napkins Greenlab Little. Natural impregnation composition - on a dairy basis. They cost inexpensively, sticky traces after use leave, do not cause irritation. They can be applied from the first days of the life of the kid.
Other mothers choose napkins "Kroch". Cotton-based product, panthenol, oatmeal and aloe is impregnated. They are loved for softness and high humidity, good cleansing properties, pleasant neutral fragrance, for the optimal value for money.
Some appreciated napkins "World of Childhood". They are natural, have a weak unobtrusive smell, they have a mitigating effect, well heal the wounds, the antibacterial effect is displayed. Packaging is comfortable, with valve, packaged 80 pieces.
Our shops take products from Turkey. Many mothers like the company's napkins Freshmaker.. Their base is soft, do not contain dyes and obsessive fragrances.
This list is quite lengthy, because how many moms, so many opinions. Well, we will stop at this.
note
When buying a product, pay attention to the shelf life and manufacturer. In some cases, the date of manufacture is difficult to find, usually napkins can lie one and a half or two years. If the napkins are overdue, it should not be purchased, because the benefits will not be from them. The manufacturer's brand must be known, it will make a guarantee of high quality products.
To the composition of the components should not be in the composition of children's wet napkins and how do they moisturize the skin of the kid? The dermatologist Galina Menshikova (@Menshchikova_Galina) answered the Beautyhack questions and shared safe children's napkins from European and Asian brands.
Galina Meniers Dermatologist, Candidate of Medical Sciences
Children's wet wipes should be hypoallergenic, do not contain fragrances, their surface should not irritate the tender skin of the child. Choose the most dense, but at the same time soft napkins. Thickness (the more, the better) affects the absorption of napkins. Also, I also advise the most large napkins - it is more economical and more convenient for mom.
Be sure to read the composition on the packaging, it should be the name and address of the manufacturer, the production date and shelf life. The last in wet napkins is usually about 30 months. Well, if there will be no more than 60 napkins in the package, otherwise they can quickly dry.
What are wet wipes produced from?

The main difference between children's napkins from adults - material. Adults are made of synthetic tissues (viscose or polypropylene), and the perfect material for baby napkins is organic cotton. It is soft, safe and well absorbs moisture with sensitive children's skin.
What components should not be in the composition of wet napkins for children?
They should not have alcohol (causes contact dermatitis, as well as burning in the place of inflammation and diarmions), parabens, phthalates (used to increase the softness of napkins, but are harmful both for children and for adults), sodium lauryl sulfate (annoying detergentwhich causes dryness and itching), fragrances and flavors (lemonuine, linalol, menthol).
I also advise you to avoid preservative of a new generation - methylismiciazoline. Recent studies have shown that it can cause allergies from kids.
Wet wipes can be used from birth?
There is an opinion that napkins can not be applied from birth. This is not true. High-quality wet wipes are completely safe if it is not often used (when you, for example, are not at home). This is confirmed by numerous studies. There is nothing better than water, baby soap without tears and towels.
Napkins really can moisturize the skin
To do this, there are vitamins A, E and F in their composition (they also heal in wounds), chamomile extracts, cleanliness, turns (prevent irritation), sea buckthorn (reduce thenels), aloe vera. Consider at the same time that the kid can be allergic to individual components, so everything is individually.

The first wet wipes appeared in the second half of the last century. They were not at all like modern. And they consisted mainly of paper, therefore, instantly dried. Also did not have the strength and softness of the current analogues. Manufacturers have a dilemma, how to improve this product. Therefore, children's napkins appeared, which provide maximum protection and hygiene.
Baby wipes
Wet wipes for newborns are a hygienic product intended for use in domestic conditions, which make a very easy to care for the baby. Separated napkin - this is a piece of fabric impregnated with a special liquid. Napkins for newborns refer to a special category of hygiene products, because suitable for kids of the most tender age. For most parents, they became a real find.
Children's napkins are very comfortable and practical to use, and in some cases they become indispensable. They will help maintain the purity of the baby in the wanders, reliably remove the dirt from the handles, and if there is no way out, they will help support the purity of the skin in the morning and in the evening instead of bathing.
What do wet wipes for children impregnate?
In babies, the skin is extremely sensitive. You will be more easily faced with allergic reactions if you follow the number of chemical and artificial agents that fall on the delicate skin of the child. Therefore, napkins for children meet more stringent quality requirements than similar to adults.
What is the impregnation of napkins, and whether there are no allergic reactions in their composition? The quality of impregnation is also significantly as the material from which they are produced. Definitely, eliminating ethyl alcohol.
Ordinary impregnation of wet napkins for crumbs consists of components:
- oil, lotion or cream, which passed strict preliminary control for allergens;
- various oils of vegetable origin - jojoba, avocado, olive, wheat embryos, which prevent skin irritation;
- miscellaneous vegetable impurities in the form of an extract of a series, aloe vera, chamomile, nettle, which have proven themselves with mitigating and anti-inflammatory qualities;
- vitamin ingredients that heal scratches and wounds;
- sometimes natural juices of plants are added, which exhibit therapeutic properties;
- fdot or flavors use less often in order not to cause allergies like dyes.
How to choose the napkins?
To do right choice Among the huge range of children's wet napkins, you need to use some secrets and rules in order to acquire really safe and allergy napkins:
- read the instructions very carefully, there must be a mention of hypoallery, the absence of preservatives, alcohol and dyes;
- on the package there must be a manufacturer and its address, the date of manufacture of napkins, from which components is impregnation, how many pieces of napkins in the package and shelf life (it is considered a normal period of 18-30 months);
- data on hygienic and clinical studies that must pass napkins;
- napkins must be no more than one hundred pieces in the package, because they have to move from the frequent opening of the packaging;
- the appearance of the packaging should also be at the level, soft packaging with a shrink film;
- a good basis for the manufacture is the spanlace or spunbond. The first received the most widespread, in its composition, viscose and polyester fibers, remarkably absorbs and soft to the touch. Polypropylene fibers are used for the manufacture of the second; therefore, the cost is less;
- acquire napkins preferably in pharmacies or in specialized stores so as not to buy a fake that will bring discomfort to your baby.
There was a mistaken assumption that using wet napkins to ensure hygienic procedures for the smallest certainly prohibited. Ordinary hearing, not confirmed by any scientific justification. On the contrary, specialists in the field of pediatrics unanimously agreed into absolute harmlessness of their use for the baby.
