Use gentle, fragrance-free products for your baby’s skin
Choose baby soaps, shampoos, and lotions labeled ‘fragrance-free’ to minimize irritation.
“Avoid adult skincare products, as they often contain harsh chemicals not suitable for infants.”
“Test a small patch of skin before using a new product to check for sensitivity or allergic reactions.”
“Use mild, hypoallergenic wipes for diaper changes instead of scented ones.”
“Limit the number of products applied at once to reduce the risk of skin irritation.”
“Look for products with natural, gentle ingredients like aloe or calendula.”
“Keep bath time short, around 5–10 minutes, using lukewarm water and gentle cleansers.”
“Pat the skin dry instead of rubbing, especially in folds and creases.”
“Moisturize daily with a fragrance-free lotion to prevent dryness, especially after baths.”
“Store products properly and avoid expired items, as old formulas can irritate delicate baby skin.”
