Shop Cotton Wool in Singapore for a Clean and Happy Baby

As parents, we understand the importance of always keeping our cherished little ones comfortable and clean. This enhances their well-being and happiness and fosters a stronger bond between you and your baby as they start recognising their primary caregivers. Baby-friendly cotton wool is instrumental in this aspect of parenting, as it assists in maintaining your baby's hygiene and cleanliness while being gentle on their delicate skin.

Baby-friendly cotton wool is gentle and safe to use, making it a popular choice among parents. This is especially important for newborn babies with extremely delicate skin prone to irritation. During the initial weeks of their life, it is often advised to use cotton wool pads and warm water for cleaning their bottoms, as this combination provides a soothing and protective effect on their delicate skin. By using baby-friendly cotton wool, you can confidently care for your little one, ensuring their cleanliness and contentment throughout their daily routines.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cotton Wools for Babies

What cotton wool is best for newborns?

Always use high-quality, baby-friendly cotton wool made from 100% pure cotton for newborns. This ensures that the cotton wool is gentle on your baby's sensitive skin and does not cause any discomfort during the cleaning process. Some examples include Mothercare Small Cotton Wool Balls and Pigeon Cotton Balls.

Should newborn babies use wipes or cotton wool?

Newborn babies have delicate skin that can be easily irritated. In the first few weeks, using cotton wool and warm water for cleaning during diaper changes is recommended instead of baby wipes, as this is gentler on sensitive skin. As your baby grows older and their skin becomes less sensitive, you can transition to using baby wipes.

Can I use cotton wool to clean my baby’s ears, eyes and nose?

Yes, cotton wool may be used to clean your baby's ears, eyes, and nose daily. We recommend using only cotton wool and warm water to gently wipe these areas. Refrain from using soap, as it may lead to dryness on your baby's sensitive skin.
