Organic skin care for babies

My toddler's skin is unbelievably sensitive. I swear if you so much as look at him cross-eyed, he breaks out in a rash. Which means I'm always eager to find safe, natural products for him. After falling for the amazing organic body cream from Nature's Paradise, I was excited to discover that they also have a line of organic skin care products for babies. And now that I've tried them out, I'm hooked! Not only are all of the Nature's Paradise baby products chemical free, vegan and certified organic but they are also food grade. And since my son is a thumb sucker, I appreciate that extra measure of safety.

I could sing the praises of the Baby Oil for cradle cap or the nourishing and cleansing performance of the Conditioning Shampoo & Bodywash but I want to focus on my favorite product, the Shea Butter Diaper Cream. I had been using samples of a medicated ointment from our pediatrician for my son's occasional diaper rash. It works great but is laden with chemicals. Not only did the Shea Butter Diaper Cream work just as well on diaper rash but it also soothed his eczema prone skin as well. I have a feeling this would even be the perfect solution to my desert dwelling sister's super dry hands. Don't let the name limit you, this little powerhouse has many uses!

The Gi'ovane Italy Firming Eye Cream looks great as well. Thanks for a wonderful giveaway!

I am most interested in the Hand sanitizer. Everyone loves to touch the baby and she is very much into putting her hands in her mouth so it would be nice to give her a quick clean up after people handle her so that she is not putting something gross in her mouth.

Jenn @ Beautiful Calling June 24, 2009 at 11:04 AM  

The baby body wash. I have two little ones with sensitive skin/eczema and it is a struggle to find things that work!

Thanks!
