Apply 1-2 pumps of French Diaper Care to an oversized Cotton Pad and wipe the diaper area from front to back. Fold and flip the cotton pad for maximum use. Repeat if necessary until the baby's bottom is clean.

Conventional diaper wipes are often filled with chemicals that are drying and irritating to sensitive baby skin, not to mention bad for the environment. French Diaper Care  is a completely natural, time-tested approach that effectively cleanses, moisturizes and protects baby skin, while reducing waste.  Limewater cleanses and rebalances the pH of the skin, reducing rashes and irritations. Olive oil nourishes, moisturizes and protects, forming a protective barrier against bodily waste.

It can be used at every diaper change.

French Diaper Care  is made with olive oil and sunflower seed oil which will leave a shiny layer on the skin in order to moisturize and protect. Think of it as a built-in diaper cream!

Limewater is made by running water through French limestone. It has many amazing properties that we love for babies. 

  • ​​pH balancing: Limewater water is alkaline, which can help to balance the pH of the skin. This can be beneficial for babies, whose skin is often more delicate and sensitive than adult skin.
  • Moisturizing: Limewater is rich in calcium and magnesium, which can help to moisturize and soothe the skin.
  • Gentle Cleansing: Limewater is a mild cleanser that can help to remove dirt and impurities from the skin without stripping it of its natural oils. This can be especially beneficial for babies, whose skin can be easily irritated by harsh soaps and cleansers.
