DIY Baby Wipes

Having children is no fun and games on the finances lets face it, so its always good when you can save yourself a bit of money here and there. I came across homemade baby wipes on the internet a while ago and I was fascinated. So I decided to try them out using 3 ingredients that I had at home and I must say they've been amazing on my daughters skin. She suffers pretty bad nappy rash at times which has massively improved after using these so I thought I would share them with you. There are many different ways you can do this, this is how I did them.

You will need:

 

Good quality absorbent kitchen paper/paper towel

Organic Coconut Oil

Natural hand soap ( I used Forever Living Aloe Hand and Face Soap)

1.25 litre plastic container or any container you like

A sharp knife

A jug

Whisk

Boiling water

 

 

 Start by taking your kitchen paper and laying it down flat, take your knife and saw in half.

  

 

Place one half into the container

 Add 1 pump of the natural soap into the jug

 

 

 Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil to the jug

 

Then add 1 cup of boiling water to the mixture

 

 

Whisk until the coconut oil and soap all melts together

 

Pour the mixture into the container ensuring all the paper towel is covered

 

Once the paper towel has absorbed all the mixture gently remove the centre cardboard

 

 

 You can then pull through your first wipes from the centre

 

And there you have it......3 ingredient homemade baby wipes. So amazingly lovely your baby's tooshy will love them.

TIP: the better quality paper towel you have the better/stronger your wipes will be.

I hope you enjoyed this post please feel free to try this out and I'd love hear your feedback.

Much love
