Say “Bye Bye” to Diaper Rash with Eco-Friendly Bummas
A Soft Kiss of Cloth Helps Prevent Red, Irritated Baby Bums


LOS ANGELES, Calif., August 5, 2008--Bummas, a new line of super soft and supple baby cloths, is helping new moms and dads say “bye bye” to uncomfortable and irritating diaper rashes. Developed by parents who suffered through diaper rashes with their own newborn son, Bummas are re-usable, eco-friendly, highly absorbent cloths designed to keep sensitive baby bottoms dry, fresh and chemical-free.

As any new parent knows, a baby’s skin is extremely sensitive. According to medical experts, diaper rashes—which commonly strike babies up to 15 months of age—are often caused by a reaction to chemicals and fragrances found in disposable wipes and diapers, or irritation from urine and stools. Since bacteria and yeast that thrive under warm, moist conditions further exacerbate diaper rashes, the best treatment is to keep a baby’s bottom clean and dry—the Bummas way.

Bummas, which are naturally hypoallergenic and antimicrobial, can be used two ways to help treat and prevent diaper rashes:

1)   Use in Place of Chemical Wipes. Pediatricians are increasingly recommending that water be used to clean sensitive bums during diaper changes. Wet a Bummas with water, and wipe. No chemicals = no irritation!
2)   Use to Pat Dry. Keeping a baby’s bottom dry is key to preventing diaper rash. Use a fresh, highly absorbent Bummas to gently pat the baby dry, then re-diaper.

As an added bonus, Bummas can also be used to stop those surprise squirts during diaper changes. Just cover as you reach for a new diaper. One Bummas will absorb an entire pee.

Bummas are quickly becoming an indispensable part of any diaper-changing regimen. They are light, easy to take on-the-go and machine washable without shrinking or fading. Made of woven velour terry cloth in a handy 5” X 7” size, Bummas are also available in a wide variety of attractive colors, perfect for hip, new parents with an eye for style.

Bummas, affordably priced at $16.99 for a package of 10, can be conveniently purchased online at www.bummas.com.

About Bummas:

Based in Los Angeles, Bummas was founded in 2008 by Casey and Randy Schwartz shortly after the birth of their son. Overwhelmed with advice from well-meaning family members, friends, pediatricians and books, Casey and Randy were left with one unanswered question: how do we dry our baby’s bottom without blowing until we are blue in the face? Soon Bummas was born, and these super-soft, highly absorbent wipes are now on their way to becoming an indispensable part of diaper changing routines throughout the country.
