After trying several different homemade wipe recipes, we came up with one of our own to use in our wipe warmer

The Baby Lane's Wipe Recipe:

1 1/2-2 cups of water- (distilled works best but tap is okay)
1/4 cup aloe vera gel
1 TBSP Weleda Calendula oil
2 TSP baby shampoo- we use one without SLE/SLES
2-3 drops of tea tree oil
2-3  drops of lavender oil

Mix all ingredients and place in wipe warmer.  We keep our wipes on the side and dip them in as needed - we find this keeps them fresh.  You can also put this in a spray bottle if you prefer.

Anti--fungal Baby Wipes:

1/2 cup distilled water
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup aloe vera gel
1 TBS. of calendula oil
1 drop of lavender essential oil
1 drop of tea tree essential oil

This recipe is courtesy of Stony Mountain Botanicals.  The vinegar and essential oils discourage yeast growth so the wipes should not get moldy .

To prepare, use a glass jar with a tight fitting lid.  Pour all your ingredients in, cover the jar and shake to blend the ingredients.  Place your wipes in a container and pour on enough solution to moisten them.  Store any extra solution in the fridge.  It should stay fresh for a long time especially if you used distilled water.

You may use this recipe with cotton/cloth wipes or make your own with paper towels. This may not be suitable for a baby with diaper rash, as the vinegar make act as an irritation.
