Summer Baby Skincare: How to Prevent Heat Rash and Keep Skin Fresh

Summer means sunshine, playtime — and for babies, sometimes heat rashes. Your baby’s skin is thinner and more sensitive, making it easy to overheat or get irritated. With the right summer skincare routine, you can keep your little one cool, comfortable, and rash-free.

Here’s how to care for your baby’s skin during hot weather:

1. Dress Lightly and Breathably.
Choose soft, 100% cotton outfits to help your baby’s skin breathe. Avoid synthetic fabrics that trap sweat.

2. Keep Baths Cool and Short.
A quick bath with lukewarm water helps your baby stay fresh. Add a drop of gentle baby wash to remove sweat without drying the skin.

3. Use a Light Moisturizer.
Even in summer, hydration is key. Go for a lightweight, fragrance-free lotion to keep your baby’s skin balanced.

4. Prevent Heat Rash Early.
Apply a thin layer of baby powder or soothing cream to areas prone to sweat — like the neck, underarms, and thighs.

5. Keep the Room Cool.
Use a fan or air conditioner to keep the temperature comfortable (around 22–24°C). Always avoid direct airflow on your baby.
