The Perfect Bathing and Diaper Changing Routine to Protect Your Newborn's Skin

Baby bath and diaper changing routine in Angola

Newborn skin is delicate and needs a gentle hygiene routine. In Angola's warm climate, moisture, sweat and diaper friction can cause discomfort, so it is important to keep the skin clean, dry and protected with products suited to your baby's daily care routine.

1. A short, gentle bath

During the first months, bath time should be simple, with lukewarm water and gentle products. The Mon Petit Gentle Bath Gel 250ml (Item 102547 — 5,957 AOA) helps cleanse the baby's skin and scalp as part of a baby bath and skincare routine.

2. Moisturize and protect after bathing

After bath time, dry the skin with a soft towel without rubbing. The Mon Petit Body Moisturizing Cream 250ml (Item 102545 — 4,324 AOA) helps keep the skin comfortable. For a calm bedtime massage, the Mon Petit Moisturizing Baby Oil 250ml (Item 102553 — 4,186 AOA) can be part of the care routine.

3. Help prevent irritation during diaper changes

The diaper area is exposed to moisture and friction several times a day. At each change, clean and dry the skin well before applying Mon Petit Diaper Changing Barrier Cream 100g (Item 102551 — 2,484 AOA), which helps create a protective layer. To help keep skin folds dry, Mon Petit Dusting Powder 100g (Item 102552 — 2,185 AOA) can be applied carefully and away from the baby's face.
