As a first-time parent, you might be more concerned about how to give your baby a bath for the first time, what cleansing products to purchase, and getting the right water temperature and bath techniques.

Have you ever considered getting the right baby bath towels? Or you might be thinking, aren’t all towels the same? Do babies need special towels?

Often parents will only realise their baby bath towels are not suitable after using them several times. They are less absorbent, they become rough after washing and drying multiple times and they irritate your baby’s skin because of the rough texture.

Firstly, you need to understand that a baby’s skin is especially delicate and sensitive. Baby’s skin barrier that retains skin moisture and fends off harmful microbes does not fully develop until 2 years old. It can react negatively to the slightest irritation.

Cotton is the best fabric for babies because it is the most breathable and fast moisture-absorbent fabric. On the other hand, you may want to avoid fabrics like synthetic fabrics, wool and nylon that can easily irritate your baby’s skin.

Choose a 100% pure cotton gauze towel for your newborn because...

1. It is soft and gentle on baby’s skin
   Caring for your baby’s skin goes beyond moisturisers and other topicals. The fabric that comes into contact with your baby’s skin is equally important. Pure cotton is the gentlest on baby’s skin compared to other fabrics and cotton blends that can cause abrasion and irritation.

2. It is fast moisture-absorbing
   Leaving moisture on your baby’s skin for a prolonged period can wreak havoc such as causing rashes, irritation and discomfort. Worse if they catch a cold. Pure cotton gauze towel is fast moisture-absorbing which is highly effective in drying your baby after bath. As cotton is a natural fabric with high hydrophilic properties, its fibers attract water readily.

3. It is 100% natural and hypoallergenic
   Choose 100% pure cotton because it is 100% natural fiber. Pure cotton undergoes rigorous processing and inspection to ensure zero presence of harmful chemicals. Cotton blends or synthetic fabrics often have pesticide residues in which baby’s skin is too fragile against these chemicals. Using pure cotton towels or any fabrics on your baby’s skin helps avoid allergic reactions to your baby’s delicate skin.

4. It is highly breathable and fast-drying
   Pure cotton gauze doesn’t retain moisture for long. It dries up just as quickly as they are cleaned. You need that for your baby’s towel because mold tends to grow in places with lots of moisture. It then becomes a breeding ground for bad bacteria. We know that parent’s life is hectic. Using a pure cotton gauze towel will help ease your laundry burden.

5. It is easy to wash and durable
   As parents, we cannot escape dirt and mess on the fabric daily. Pure cotton towels can release dirt and grime more easily than other fabrics. It helps save you the burden of heavily scrubbing away the messes off the fabric. You can simply wash pure cotton towels in a washing machine and the fabric will still maintain its structure.

Although pure cotton towels are a little heavier on the pocket, they last much longer and work much more effectively compared to other fabrics. In return, not only you save on having to spend on creams and doctor consultations, you also have a fuss-free happy baby!
