Under The Nile Cloth Diaper Wipes Review AND Giveaway!

A "Fluffy" welcome to you!  In case you're new to my blog, you may not know that I'm began cloth diapering my youngest back in August.  So, how did I become a cloth diaper convert?  Well, I had been following Jennifer Labit's Facebook page over the past year and have just admired her as an entrepreneur.  Jennifer is the creator of bumGenius, Flip and Econobum cloth diapers.  As I followed her Facebook page, cloth diapering began to peak my interest.  One evening, I saw on Jennifer's page that she would be in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to have coffee with local cloth diapering moms in the area.  Even though I wasn't currently cloth diapering, I wanted to meet her.  I also wanted to meet other cloth diapering moms and pick their brains about the world of fluff.  You can read about my coffee meeting with Jennifer here.  About two weeks after meeting Jennifer, I took the plunge and began cloth diapering my youngest.  I have L.O.V.E.D it!

Over the past four months, I've had the opportunity to review various cloth diapering products and today, I'm reviewing Under The Nile Organics' Cotton Terry Baby Wipes for Lullaby Organics' 12 Days of Holi-Daily Deals!  I'm super excited to be one of the many fabulous bloggers participating in this fun and festive kick-off to the Christmas season.  First, let me tell you a little bit more about Lullaby Organics!  

I first met Erin through my charitable group, Shower of Hope Oklahoma.  My first charitable endeavor was helping the Hamil Family of Cashion, Oklahoma, after a tornado ripped through their home, claiming the lives of the Hamil's two little boys.  Erin's shop, Lullaby Organics, sent an amazing care package to the Hamil Family and she has since been a wonderful supporter of Shower of Hope Oklahoma.  We keep in touch on Facebook, I follow her blog, Green Kids Guide, and I have shopped at her online store, Lullaby Organics.  Lullaby Organics is simply an amazing shop that features some of the finest organic and eco-friendly products for your babies, toddlers and entire family.   Lullaby Organics isn't just a business for Erin, but rather it's a personal mission to help families discover the health benefits of organic living, and to learn how easy it is to eliminate nasty chemical toxins from their homes.  

Now, here's where it gets exciting!  I have been using Under The Nile Organics Baby Wipes this week.  I used cloth diapers, so why wouldn't I try cloth wipes, right?  Under The Nile Organic Baby Wipes are made from organic Egyptian cotton, which is something that I just love.  Natural and organic... can't get much better.  The wipes have worked great for me this week and I have loved the fact that I'm saving money by using something I can later re-use.  Before I used the baby wipes, I washed and dried them.  The wipes have been through two washes and have washed well each time.  They are just the right, perfect size for a baby wipe.  They are also thick like a wash cloth, yet soft on baby's skin.  

So, to use cloth wipes, you need a " wipe cleansing solution."  Lullaby Organics also sent me Earth Mama Angel Baby's "A Little Something For Baby" gift set so that I could make my own wipe cleanser solution using the Angel Baby Wash and Angel Baby Oil.  The wipe cleaner recipe is quite simple.  You can actually watch a video demonstration here.  You use: 1 cup of water, 1 tablespoon of baby wash and 1/2 - 1 tablespoon of baby oil.  I simply mixed the ingredients together and put them in a small squirt bottle.  At diaper changes, I would simply squirt the wipe cleanser on my little one's bottom and then wipe clean with the cloth diaper wipes.  My little one smelled heavenly because Angel Baby Wash smells of vanilla and orange.  Here's an image for you... think of an orange creamsicle.  The aroma is divine.

I also tried another wipe cleanser solution that I purchased from my local cloth diaper store, Booty Duty Cloth Diapers.  I thought it would be a fun comparison since I was reviewing the cloth baby wipes this week.  I bought a 4-ounce bottle of Thirsties Booty Luster.  First, I love the name... Booty Luster.  Actually, it's quite fitting as it does leave sort of a "luster" on your little one's bottom before you wipe clean.  The smell is pleasant, not too overpowering or too strong.  The 4-ounce bottle would be great for diaper bags and for traveling.  That said, I love both the homemade Earth Mama Angel Baby wipe cleanser and Thirsties Booty Luster.  Both wipe cleanser solutions were great at loosening waste, thoroughly cleansing the diaper area, and both gently moisturized my little one's sensitive bottom.  If you don't have a local cloth diaper store to purchase Thirsties Booty Luster, it may make more sense to make your own homemade wipe cleanser using products that you already have in your home.

OK... it's about to get real good!  Lullaby Organics is offering an awesome giveaway for one of my lucky readers!  One lucky reader will win 2 sets of Under The Nile Organics Cloth Wipes AND a 5.3 oz (full size) Earth Mama Angel Baby's Angel Shampoo and Wash
