Boy whose face broke out in rash after being cleaned by an Aldi baby wipe awarded €15k

A judge has approved a €15,000 settlement offer for a child whose face broke out in a red angry-looking rash after having been cleaned with baby wipes bought in an Aldi store.

Barrister Esther Earley told Judge John O’Connor in the Circuit Civil Court on Friday that the Mamia baby wipes packaging had stated they were fragrance free, mild, gentle, dermatologically tested, and hypoallergenic.
