cornstarch powder (the 79 cent stuff you eat, by home brand lol) put it in a shaker container.
olive oil or sweet almond oil (we don't use baby oil as it can get in the lungs if swallowed and kill them)
Gaia baby shampoo. It's my favourite one, and I won't use anything else. We also use it as a wash lol. Or gaias' baby bath.
We also always had a really good bum ointment, I like zinc ones, generally, but for this bub I'm shopping around for 'the one' lol.
we also keep 'euky bear rub' (like vicks but more suited to young uns)
also the occassional baking soda for making a paste for cradle cap.
with wipes, we bought a heap of cheap face clothes and used them as wipes, for bums, little hands, faces, etc, we just washed them thoroughly each time like nappies, and saved a fortune!
