Rated 5 out of 5 by RaisingReaders8 from Fits Great and No Leakage This product fit amazing on my niece. She had no trouble with leakage while we were traveling for 4 hrs. It didn't cause a rash and it was soft on her skin. I highly recommend checking it out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by KStha1 from Huggies Skin essential is a great diaper We received a small diaper package and used it for 3-4 days (that's how long it lasted). We change our baby's diaper every 3-4 hrs. It never leaked and was easy to put on. The only disadvantage of this diaper is that it did not have a color-labeled area to put the velcro on. we had to figure it out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Momming2 from Great product! My 9-month old baby has sensitive skin and while wearing these diapers, she didn’t have a blow out, wet her pajamas or had any rashes. It feels different than other diapers, but it’s worth it. I’d definitely recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mdwyer7 from Huggies are the best Huggies are synonymous for being the best diaper brand. These show that sentiment. They are soft. Thick and have good adsorption. They don’t sag or peel. They have a nice feature to help prevent diaper blowouts in the back. These are great diapers.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2GirlMom9 from Amazing I've had a hard time finding a product that's not going to make my baby's skin break out but also provide great leak protection. We ended up having to switch over her diet a bit so finding a diaper I could rely on not to be "blowing out" all the time was necessary. I'm a huggies lover as it is but to be honest these blew me away. We didn't have a single leak or blow out!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Misti7 from Huggies -Great product! These diapers were great! They were very absorbent and I felt like they wicked the wetness from my babies skin, so he stayed dryer. They were soft, and not as restricting in movements as some are.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Stina9 from Happy tush Happy baby ! As a mom of two, I have a lot of things on my mind. One thing that huggy skin helps me with is making sure that my babies skin is dry and free of unnecessary chemicals that irritate her skin. One of the things I truly love about these diapers is the way it curves and hugs my child. I have tried so many others And I think we found our perfect fit! I’ve noticed a huge difference, Less redness and it’s truly a luxury diaper with the blowout barriers and the stretchy back my daughter can be fully protected while she’s on the swing or doing tummy time and playing with her sister.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jammie6 from Huggins Skin Essentials size 2 I received size 2 of the diapers 12-18 pounds. The diapers were a bit big for my little one my little one weight is 15 pounds . However the diapers did not break my little one out. Usually I have to include each medication with every diaper change . I have actually already switched over to Huggins as our first choice and now my only choice .

Rated 3 out of 5 by allie8 from Still rashing These diapers were great at first and I love that they are free of parabens and fragrances which are the top allergens. My baby wore them and then ended up with another rash. After switching back to the other brand baby was rash free. I am not sure what the cause of the rash was but with sensitive skin, there must be something not clean in the product. It is definitely a step up from those that are full of fragrance and other allergens in the diaper. They are not clean enough for us to use.
