Considering how precious your newborn is choosing the best baby face towels can be overwhelming. This article provides a quick buyer's guide to save you from overthinking every towel you encounter in shops. It helps make the process easier so you can end up with a high-quality purchase suitable for your baby's needs. Browse wide-ranging baby face towels from Best&Less. Purchase a comfy and organic material that is kind to your baby's skin.

What kind of face towels should you use for your baby?

LOCAL WEATHER CONDITIONS

Aside from preferences and comfort the type of towel for your newborn baby should also factor in the local weather. In wintry areas you must consider a thicker material that provides more warmth to your newborn. In warmer locations cotton material is ideal. It provides breathability and cosiness to the child.

Aside from baby face towels you can also purchase baby thermals at Best&Less to make sure your baby is kept warm.

ZERO PERFUMES AND FRAGRANCES

Avoid perfumes and fragrances at all costs when purchasing baby face towels for your baby. Their noses are sensitive to the strong scent and their skin might react to the chemicals of the perfume. But some brands might highlight that the perfume or fragrance will not cause harm to the baby.

Regardless of how confident a company is in its perfume's safety it is best to steer clear of it. Fragrances can cause breathing complications and rashes. If you have a scent that you prefer and are confident it will not harm your baby you can purchase a scent-free towel and apply the perfume after.

MATERIALS

Selecting the right material for your baby can be overwhelming. The material may not satisfy every measure. Some materials feel warm but might not be soft. At the same time some soft materials might not be warm. You need to purchase a towel that provides the best of both worlds.

Cotton and flannel are the best materials for newborns. If you can find baby face towels made from nylon it is even better.

If you want the best go for towels with a thicker feel. Large and thick cotton towels are perfect for your baby.

If you decide to go with cotton it is best to purchase a towel made of combed cotton. Although a brand may exalt how soft their towels are in some cases only a single wash can make them rough for your baby's skin.

Crumpled towels can feel like sandpaper against the skin of your baby. Also friction by rubbing can increase the risk of rash. Combed cotton is soft and kind to your baby's skin even after washing.

ABSORBENCY

Baby towels should be highly absorbent than regular towels used by adults and older children. Your baby must be dry within a short period to avoid catching colds. Also you don't want to keep rubbing your baby's skin with a towel. The towel must be able to soak up the water with minimal effort.

The primary consideration with absorbent towels is the grams per square meter or GMS. Usually the GMS rating is indicated on the manufacturer's label.

For a newborn anything between 601-700 GMS is ideal. It is not recommended to go higher or lower than this range.

How to use baby face towels?

Gather all equipment and supplies. Add warm water to a clean sink or basin. Test the water with the inside of your wrist or elbow. Place your baby on thick towels on a surface that feels comfortable. Cover your baby with a towel or blanket Never take your hands off your baby even for a second. In case you forgot something wrap the baby in a towel and take them with you. Make sure the baby face towels are moistened. Wipe each eye of your baby starting at the bridge of the nose then wiping to the corners of the eye. Wash the rest of your baby's face with a soft and moistened washcloth without soap. Clean the folds of the ears with a soft towel. Never insert a cotton swab into the ear because it can injure the eardrum. Add a small quantity of mild soap to the washcloth. Gently bathe your baby from the neck down. Wash only one area at a time. Afterwards rinse them with a clean washcloth or a tiny cup of water. Once the baby's body is clean you can wrap them in a warm towel before washing their hair. Wash the baby's head last. Apply shampoo on the washcloth. Rinse it afterwards and be careful not to allow the water to run over the baby's face. Hold the baby snugly with your arm under their back. Your wrist and hand must support their neck. You can use a high faucet to rinse their hair. Scrubbing is not needed. But many babies enjoy the sensation of gentle strokes during a bath. Finally wrap the baby in a towel and hug them close.
