An absorbent article includes a liquid permeable topsheet (10), a liquid impermeable or water repellent backsheet, and an absorbent member interposed between these sheets. The topsheet (10) is formed of a nonwoven sheet having high density portions (13A) and low density portions (14A). Each high density portion (13A) and each low density portion (14A) are different in density from each other. The high density portions (13A) and the low density portions (14A) are arranged in planar directions of the topsheet (10). The low density portions (14A) have a larger amount of a skin care agent (5) applied thereto than the high density portions (13A).
