Huggies Snug and Dry Vs Little Snugglers
Huggies is one of the biggest names when it comes to the diaper market. They have a wide range of diaper selections to meet every need from newborns, sensitive skin, swim diapers, overnight diapers, and more.
Huggies is both known and loved for quality, accessibility, and suitability for the baby’s delicate skin. And when it comes to their diaper options Huggies Snug and Dry and Huggies Little Snugglers are their most popular.
So let’s see how they stack up against one another to see what they offer to help you choose if you are considering them.
Similarities

Differences

Our verdict
If you compare the two products, Little Snugglers is clearly the winner despite being more expensive. The reason is that we find them better suited for sensitive skin. Even if your baby doesn’t have sensitive skin, there is no harm in getting them a soft and hypoallergenic diaper to keep them comfortable.
We also love the fact that Little Snugglers is designed to cater to the needs of preemies and newborns with a fitting size and an umbilical cord cutout that protects your newborn’s belly button from infections caused by constant rubbing with the diaper.
That said, Snug and Dry is also a solid choice. It is just as soft and comfortable for children who don’t have sensitive skin. Plus, kids love it because of the fun Disney pictures.
