Why diaper choice matters for eczema
Eczema-prone skin has a compromised barrier function — it reacts to contact irritants that wouldn't bother healthy skin. The 3 worst diaper-borne triggers:
- Chlorine bleach byproducts (dioxins) — conventional diapers bleach the pulp with chlorine; trace amounts stay in the diaper and contact skin
- Synthetic fragrance — added to mask the smell of urine/poop; a top eczema trigger per pediatric dermatology studies
- Petroleum-based plastics + adhesives — outgas chemicals + can rub on sensitive skin
Cuddle-Kin's eczema-friendly design
- Chlorine-free bamboo core — no bleach byproducts
- Fragrance-free — completely unscented
- Dermatologist-tested — formulated for sensitive skin

- OEKO-TEX 100 certified — third-party tested for harmful substances
Complete eczema diapering protocol
- Use chlorine-free, fragrance-free diapers (like Cuddle-Kin)
- Change frequently — wet diapers worsen eczema flare-ups
- Use a zinc-oxide barrier cream (Triple Paste, Boudreaux's Original) at every change
- Air-dry for 5-10 min between changes when possible
- Avoid scented wipes — use water + soft cloth or fragrance-free wipes
