Mums, we can’t wait to bring you the Huggies Ultra Dry Review! When it comes to looking after your baby, providing the best care and comfort is key and one way of providing comfort to your little one is by making sure they’re comfortable in their nappy.

This is why we’re so excited to bring you the Huggies Ultra Dry Review so that you can try the Huggies Ultra Dry Nappies for yourself, and see how they work to keep your baby comfortable and dry during the day and throughout the night.

For the past 30 years, Australian parents have relied upon the protection and care of Huggies Ultra Dry Nappies. The nappies are designed to keep baby dry and comfortable both day and night, and now feature Mickey and Minnie Mouse designs, that are both stylish and adorable.

So why do so many mums choose Huggies Ultra Dry Nappies?

Huggies Ultra Dry nappies are the only nappies in Australia with tailor-made absorbency for girls and boys. Because absorbency needs differ between genders, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappies have tailored absorbency where it’s needed most. Up front for boys and lower down for girls.

Huggies Ultra Dry unique DryTouch® layer features bubbles of softness which instantly absorbs wetness and springs back dry in seconds, keeping bub dry and comfortable. Clinically proven to help prevent nappy rash, the Breathe Dry® Cover allows fresh air to circulate around baby’s bum. With up to 12hrs leakage protection, you and bub can sleep through the night.

The stretchy waistband with large grip tabs provide a soft and secure fit just like a hug and soft cushioned leg elastics help prevent red marks on baby’s delicate skin. Plus, a handy wetness indicator changes colour so you know when it’s time to change (this I must say is one of my favourite features!).

Huggies Ultra Dry nappies are made from gentle ingredients, with no added nasties, including formaldehyde, elemental chlorine, natural rubber latex of other chemicals restricted by Kimberly-Clark. See the Huggies no added nasties list.

  • Best nappies

    Since birth my now almost 3 year old has always been in huggies nappies. They are the only nappies that don’t give him nappy rash, don’t leak and are comfortable around his little legs. I particularly like that they are gender specific so he has extra absorption in the right area for him. I can rest assured that he can sleep all night and the nappy won’t leak, the 12 hour claim is spot on

  • Love them!

    The nappy design is super cute! They’re so soft. It held all of bubs wee with no leakages whatsoever! No explosions at all. I usually buy cheaper nappies but I have already brought another 2 boxes of these because they’re so good! Definitely a happy mum here! Sizing is great too for my bub

  • No leaks!

    We normally use cloth nappies but using Huggies Ultra Dry during wet weather has been a lifesaver! They are the only disposable nappies we have found that leave my son comfortable and dry. It’s good to know at night when I put on his nappy, that he will not wake up due to being wet and will still be comfortable by the morning.

  • Great absorbency and a nice snug fit!

    We have recently been using the Huggies Ultra Dry Nappies and have been so impressed. There have been no leakages and are perfect for overnight sleeps! They are such a great fit and don’t leave and red marks around the legs. I’m so happy with these nappies and will definitely be continuing to use them and recommend to anyone who has little babes.

  • Huggies Ultra dry nappies

    Ive had 4 kids and i have tried EVERY other nappy available and none come close to the quality, fit and they are always comfortable never leaving red marks.
    And Huggies nappies will actually clear up babies nappy rash or skin irritation because they draw any wetness off babies skin leaving them dry.
    Huggies have always been the best nappy and will continue in the future

    These nappies are seriously the cutest! The patterns are adorable. They did not leave behind the fluffy lint stuff that other nappies do and did not irritate my sensitive babe’s skin. My Bub’s bottom was kept dry all night and most importantly, there were no leaks! We will be repurchasing for sure!

    I loved the motif on these. Fun and playful but not too bold to show through outfits. The street by waist band is genius. I haven’t used a brand that ‘hugs’ that tight without being uncomfortable. I would use these in the future for sure!

  • Great at keeping dry overnight

    I have always used huggies overnight as I find them to have the best absorbency. I loved trialling huggies ultra dry on my 18 month old as he is a heavy wetter overnight and the nappy keeps him dry by drawing away the moisture well. There is no smell or red marks which other nappies give. I will definitely continue to use.

    Wouldn’t ever use anything else now. Most absorbent, protective and soft gentle nappy on the market. To be able to trust these on our bubs toosh and overnight means no worry for redness or rashes. Dry every time. Amazing! Thankyou for the peace of mind huggies.

    I have always been a big fan of Huggies products. I felt that this product also was excellent. It had the thicker padding which allowed for him to be dry and comfortable. Like any mum, making sure that they are dry and clean in the winter is a priority and this product delivered on this front! I will happily buy and use again!

  • The poonami from hell.

    I smelled it waft up before I knew the actual horrors that were lurking in my one year old’s trousers. She looked me dead in the eye before executing a move that will forever be known as the “Booty Smoosh”, and I, having been here before, knew to a degree of what I was dealing with.
    Like a ninja, I wrestled my tiny human who was thrashing around like a smelly crocodile, and was pleasantly surprised to find that until I undid that bad boy – there was no poop ANYWHERE it should not have been. It was contained… like I said, until I undid the nappy this was the case…

    What happened next will never be spoken of again.
    It was the Lord Voldemort of foeces.

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.
