Babies are prone to inhaling the baby powder that is used on their skin, especially if it has been made from talc. Talcum powder consists of very fine particles which can be inhaled and cause irritation to the baby’s delicate lungs. You will have to be especially careful if your baby has any kind of respiratory illness like asthma since, with baby talcum powder, some danger may be possible. As compared to talcum, the cornstarch-based powder has slightly larger particles and hence find it difficult to get airborne. This reduces the chances of inhalation and has excellent absorption qualities too.
