Homemade wipe solution for cloth wipes

We use cloth wipes along with my son's cloth diapers. At first I thought it would be a pain in the butt- however it turns out to be easier than using disposable wipes-and so much cheaper! We use mostly baby wash cloths, but we do have a few store bought wipes. I hope to make my own soon! Here is my cloth wipes solution receipe:




I use Mustela baby wash and Mustela baby lotion.

Add two or three squirts of the lotion and the baby wash to 3 cups of hot water and whisk the mixture together.


Pour the mixture into wipes warmer (wipe it out between uses, usually once a week) and then add an additional 2 cups of hot water.



Plug warmer in and you are ready to go! I prefer to dip the wipes in the warmer as needed-it seems to keep everything fresh.
