Do I really need to use liners?
The short answer is no, unless you’re using cream… in which case, the answer is absolutely.
You can use barrier creams with cloth nappies, but it is really important to use a liner (disposable or reusable) when using them. Barrier creams are designed to do just that - create a barrier between the urine and your baby's skin, protecting it while it heals. However, they can also create a barrier on the nappy, coating the fibres of the fabric and causing it to repel urine and leak.
If you need to use creams, please always ensure you use a liner. Here at Cushie tushies, we stock and love our reusable liners as they will last for years and are made from microfleece which creates a good moisture barrier between the absorbent layers of the nappy and your baby’s skin. This pack contains 5 generously sized reusable microfleece liners.
