Rated 5 out of 5 by Angela2 from Gentle Super soft diapers. I can tell while flipping through the pack they are gentle on my son's body. We have been using them for a few days and so far no rash or irritation. They're really high quality - no issues just as youd expect with huggies.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Breezy1 from Huggies Skin Essentials Diapers As a parent, I prioritize my toddler's skin health, and Huggies Skin Essentials Toddler Diapers have been a fantastic choice for us. These diapers feature a SkinProtect Liner that effectively locks away moisture and runny messes, helping to prevent diaper rash. We've had a great experience with these diapers, finding them to be incredibly soft and comfortable for our toddler. What stands out most is their performance—no leaks, even overnight! The fit is secure and snug, which adds to the peace of mind that our toddler is well-protected. The diapers are hypoallergenic and free from fragrances, phthalates, parabens, elemental chlorine, lotions, and latex, making them ideal for sensitive skin. They truly feel like a luxury diaper, and I couldn't be happier with the quality and comfort they provide. Highly recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by lii057 from Amazing diapers! It holds liquid pretty well and this one is much smaller than the huggies I received before. I don’t have children but I use this for my furbabies when she has her period. It works well and I would recommend it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Stef1 from Premium diaper Loved the softness and absorbency of the diaper. Kept my baby's skin dry. Didn't completely alleviate his diaper rash, but it helped noticably. Definitely like the softness around the leg openings.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Ketu9 from Huggies Good diapers but my kid ended up being allergic to Huggies. Gave the rest to a friend to use for her baby. Ahhh I know you are you at work but you can meet me at the house if you

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cheens9 from The most softest and absorbent!!! Huggies Skin Essentials is probably my favorite diaper for my 20 month old baby. It is soft and absorbent and keeps her skin dry. She is able to sleep even when I’ve noticed she has used the diaper. So when I don’t want to wake her up just to change her diaper throughout the night, I feel assured that she is comfortable. The diaper is leakproof and even with the softness and thickness, it’s still not bulky.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Empty7 from Not able to review, getting daily emails When I received the Huggies Skin Essential diapers Size 1, my child was already too big for them. I emailed Home Tester Club and was told it would be alright to not review them. I then started getting emails on a daily basis threatening to restrict my account so I guess I need to create a review anyway. I'm guessing that diapers would have worked well and protected skin from getting a rash.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kimberly2 from Soft but small These diapers seem a little smaller than the little movers. We had our first blow out in a year with these. They are really soft and have a liquid barrier I like but if your child is having unpredictable poop I would avoid these.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Megan4789 from #ad Huggies The diapers I received were great, my niece is super sensitive to certain diaper products, and Huggies happens to be the only brand she can use. When I saw an opportunity for a review for a Huggies product that supposedly prevents skin irritation I was really grateful to find this product and be able to switch to it. My niece has had a significant improvement in her skin irritation since we have been using the diapers. Thanks home tester club!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kiki9 from Amazing! So these were absolutely amazing! They were so soft. We didn’t experience any blow outs. It was a great pack of diapers. It was so great I went to the store to see if they sell another pack version and they don’t . So that would be my only issue is the availability and diversity when it come so smaller size package options .

Rated 5 out of 5 by Samfam1 from Gentle Comfort and Reliable Protection Huggies Skin Essential Size 4 diapers are a solid choice for parents seeking comfort and protection for their little ones. These diapers are designed to be gentle on sensitive skin, featuring a soft, hypoallergenic liner infused with natural ingredients like aloe and vitamin E. This helps prevent diaper rash and irritation, making them ideal for babies with delicate skin. The diapers offer excellent leak protection with their snug fit and double-layered barriers, which keep everything contained during both day and night. The absorbent core quickly locks in moisture, keeping your baby dry and comfortable for hours. The wetness indicator is a helpful feature for knowing when it's time for a change.
