What is baby powder used for?
Baby powder is commonly used to help absorb excess moisture and keep skin feeling fresh and dry. It is often applied during nappy changes to prevent irritation and nappy rash, but it can also be used after bath time or in skin folds to reduce friction.
Many parents find baby powder useful for keeping their little one comfortable, while some adults use it for chafing prevention, in shoes or after sports for added freshness.
Is baby powder safe to use?
Talc-free baby powders are typically made with natural ingredients such as cornstarch and tapioca, which help to absorb moisture without the concerns associated with talc-based formulas.
If you have any concerns about using baby powder, particularly for newborns or babies with sensitive skin, it’s always best to check with your healthcare professional whether baby powder is right for you.
What are the benefits of using baby powder?
Talc-free baby powders offer several benefits, including helping to keep skin dry, reducing irritation and soothing delicate skin.
Ingredients such as zinc oxide (found in Curash Baby Powder) provide added protection against nappy rash, while organic botanicals like chamomile and lavender (found in GAIA Baby Powder) help to calm and nourish the skin. Many formulas are free from artificial fragrances, petrochemicals and harsh additives, making them a gentle choice for babies and adults alike.
What is the difference between baby powder and talcum powder?
Traditional baby powders were often made with talc. Today, many brands have switched to talc-free alternatives using ingredients such as cornstarch, which has similar moisture-absorbing properties. Talc-free powders provide a safer, natural option for keeping skin dry and comfortable.
