PRODUCT REVIEW: MUSTELA SOOTHING SKINCARE FOR BABIES AND KIDS WITH VERY SENSITIVE SKIN

Image
My two little boys are very blonde and fair, and have sadly both inherited their father’s dry and sensitive skin. But worst is our 3 year old. At one point he was admitted to the Children’s Hospital as he developed a bad rash all over his body. But thankfully it disappeared as quickly as it came, with no real explanation. We have however been told that his slightly rough and dry skin can be a result of his medical treatment, including all the chemo and steroids that he received in the lead up to his bone marrow transplant three years ago. And therefore, finding the correct skincare for both of them, but especially for the 3 year old is so important. We have tried a lot of different brands, and always make sure to select gentle, products, but what made a tremendous difference, was the day we started using the Mustela range for very sensitive skin.  Mustela is a French brand who continually over the past 60 years has been conducting dermatological research into caring for the sensitive

PRODUCT REVIEW: COCOBARE BABY SKINCARE

My two little boys have unfortunately taken from their dad, and have very sensitive skin. So while there’s a multitude of different kids skincare on the shelves, sadly we cannot just use anything on them. But we’ve recently put some products from CocoBare Baby to the test.  The products made from only naturally derived and the purest of ingredients, and dermatologically tested and formulated for babies delicate skin. And of course they are free from all the chemical nasties including parabens and palm oil free, and not tested on animals. The key ingredient in the products is coconut oil, which has healing benefits on the skin, as well as it penetrates deeper into the skin to moisturise and nourish the skin. Coconut oil also helps protects the skin from potential bacteria, and can help soothe skin conditions like nappy rash, eczema, and dry scalp. We tried the 2-in- 1 Shampoo and Body wash with hydrating Aloe Vera and Chamomile extract. The wash has a gorgeous gentle coconut scent and p

Both of our little boys have very fair and sensitive skin, so I am always very cautious of which skincare products I use on their skin. The younger one does have a little more eczema prone skin, so we’re sticking to using products we know works on his skin, but thankfully 5 year old big brother’s skin doesn’t have those issues, so we’ve been loving the Milk & Co Baby range for him lately..  The Milk & Co Baby Bath Wash * is an all-natural product containing among others organic Coconut Oil, Milk Proteins, Vanilla along with Chamomile and Calendula flower extract to keep your baby happy and clean. We also love that it is free from artificial fragrances and is paraben and soap soap free. It is great for using in their bath, but also equally perfect to use as a shower gel. It gently cleanses my boy’s skin without irritating or drying it out. Being soap free does mean that it doesn’t create that many bubbles in the bath (due to not containing soap), but personally I honestly don’t

My two little have taken from their dad, and sadly have very sensitive skin, so we cannot just anything to care for their skin, but using the right gentle products is essential. And one of those brands I've always loved, is Wotnot.  Wotnot is an Australian brand making eco-friendly natural skin and baby care products, containing nothing but natural and certified organic ingredients, and without all the chemical nasties such as sulphates, alcohol, chlorine, petrochemicals, PEGs, parabens, artificial fragrances or preservatives - with the slogan "100% wot's good, 0% wot's not". And seriously, ‘wot’s’ not to love! We’ve put a selection of their products to the test including;  Wotnot  Baby Wipes Wotnot  Travel Case Wotnot  All Natural Baby Wash  Wotnot  Baby Lotion  Wotnot  Deep Moisturising 30 SPF Sunscreen  The Wotnot Biodegradable Wipes* are actually now new to us, we’ve used them longest time. I love the fact that they are so gentle that they are suitable even o
