Wipe Solution for Cloth Wipes

We use cloth wipes with an easy to make diaper wipe solution.  We keep a big spray bottle at home to spray on the wipes and a little travel size spray bottle for the diaper bag.


For the big 32 oz. spray bottle we use at home:
-10 drops of Dr. Bronner's Unscented Baby-Mild Castile Soap (any castile soap is fine)
-4 drops of tea-tree oil (good for yeast-based rashes)
-fill with tap water






For the little 2 oz. spray bottle in the diaper bag:
-2 drops of castile soap
-1 drops of tea-tree oil
-fill with tap water




You can also add Olive Oil, Vitamin E Oil, Calendula Oil or Almond Oil to your diaper wipe solution for healing and moisturizing the skin.  Five drops or a squirt or so for large bottle and a drop or two for the small bottle.  The baby formula of Dr. Bronner's soap already has olive and coconut oil in it, so you don't need as much or any oils.
