  • For the whole family

    Very happy with Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wash & Shampoo. The whole family can use it, which is a big plus for me as I hate a full shower caddy full of products. Also have used this brand before, and is a trusted brand in my household. Thumbs up from us.

  • Cetaphil baby hair and body wash will buy again

    I was very excited when I received my package of the cetaphil baby wash and shampoo along with the sample sizes for friends (might I add very generous at 50 mls each) hubby used it first when he bathed our now 2 year old and squirted a heap I thought oh his so wasteful. My son enjoyed his bath and didn’t cry when it dripped onto his face as he often has before with other washes. The scent is not strong it is light and pleasent, it dosnt strip any moisture from your hands, hair and skin after use it still feels hydrated.His skin and hair was nice and clean fresh and not irritated.

    The only issue I have is that when I used the product the same thing happend as it did to hubby a big amount squirted out no matter how much pressure you apply a big amount always comes out. That would be my only complaint.

    Will definitely purchase this again I am hoping for different packaging or a pump bottle so we do not waste product.

  • Blows other brands out of the water!

    After using this product for a while I was so impressed with it that I found myself raving and recommending it to my mum friends. The bottle is well designed with grip and a dosage limit for washes. The wash is more fluid but lathers quickly and easily and is definitely tear free. My baby’s skin was left feeling buttery soft and smooth and her hair silky to the touch with a nice light layering of scent. Would definitely recommend it to other parents, it’s topped every other brand I’ve ever tried!

  • Tear free and super cleansing.

    I found cetaphil gentle bay wash and shampoo a joy to use. Makes quite a lot of bubbles when used in the bath and I loved the way it gently washed the children. It has a really beautiful fragrance and considering my 2 kidlets try to eat the bubbles and skull the bath water. I wasn’t concerned as I knew cetaphil was a mild and gentle product. It smells awesome! We also loved the body lotion. Made my bubs skin so soft!

    Love the fact I can use this as a body wash and shampoo without having to buy two seperate products. The smell is not overwhelming and leaves baby fresh and soft. Great product.

  • Cetaphil Baby Wash

    A little of this product goes a long way and I’ve found it to be super gentle on his sensitive skin. It leaves his skin and hair super soft and hydrated and has a beautiful subtle scent. The bottle is very easy to use as it has little ripples that help as grip which is so useful especially when you have hands going everywhere getting bath ready!

    The Cetaphil gentle wash and shampoo was perfect for both my 5month old and her big sister (3yo). Created just the right amount of bubbles for bath time, was super gentle on both their skin and left them feeling soft, moisturised and smelling delicious. I would definitely recommend this product and look forward to purchasing it in the future!

    This was a safe product to use that was gentle on my baby’s skin. Although I would prefer something with a scent I am sure there are plenty of mummies that like the no scent body wash. Didn’t stand out in my books, but there is nothing stopping me from buying this product.

  • Soft and comforting wash for my bub!

    I really appreciated the silky feel of the Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wash & Shampoo and the subtle scent that lingered in her hair afterwards was such a winner for me – a classic clean baby scent that my previous choice of baby wash had been missing! I do think that the packaging dispenses too much product with a forceful squirt but apart from that I really like this product.

    Will keep using Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wash and Shampoo. Seems to be not as drying on the skin as others have used leaving it soft and less irritated. More time using will confirm this. Love that has the shampoo included and there are no tears!!

  • Gentle wash for gentle skin

    This product was very nice to use on my two little ones gentle skin. It is a gentle wash with a light fragrance that left their skin feeling soft and moisturized. My only downside would be that it squirts out quite fast and intense so you use a bit more than you would like.

  • Cetaphil is a great product

    After using Cetaphil my son’s skin does feel softer, he suffers from mild eczema and will get worse with other brands but with Cetaphil his skin has been fine and eczema free. I will definitely buy it again and after sharing with my friends they have also said how good it has been for their kids and also purchased it themselves to continue to use it.

  • Soft, gentle and moisturising

    Love, love, this product!!! This product leaves your babies skin feeling so soft and moisturized. I also love that this wash makes lots of bubbles which my baby loves! We used to use a bath oil because I just assumed anything with bubbles would dry skin but this is definitely not the case with Cetaphil! I also love the fact that this is a two in one product meaning I can wash my babies delicate skin and hair with the same product. This means I don’t have to buy a separate shampoo for my babies hair and I know it will keep her scalp moisturized too! The moisturising cream is also a fantastic cream to use after bathing with the body wash. It really leaves my baby’s skin so soft and smelling so clean. Her skin is never dry and I just couldn’t be happier with this product!

    This product smells so nice…very subtle and not overpowering but still has a lovely gentle scent. And most importantly, it does a great job of cleaning my children’s hair and body, all at the same time with the one product instead of a separate shampoo and body wash. My children smelt fresh and and were well cleaned all over.

Article Mums Reveal Their Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips

Mums Reveal Their Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips

Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.

Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.

One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.

We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.

Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums

What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.

1. Nappy Free Time

“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.

We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.

2. Change Nappies Frequently

“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member

Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.

3. Use A Barrier Cream

“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes

Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.

4. Choose Gentle

“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F

Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.

Nappy Rash Myths & Facts

🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies.
✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.

It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.

🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies.
✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.

Huggies’ Rapid-Dry™ Technology absorbs wetness instantly, reducing irritation risk.

🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation.
✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.
