It can be very frustrating when you find out that your newborn baby has sensitive skin. There could be many reasons your baby has sensitive skin and one of them could possibly be an allergy. My daughter had very sensitive skin and when I was nursing her, if I ate any food products that contained flour, her skin would become more sensitive and extremely itchy. I tried many, many products.
Every child is going to be different with each product your try. Some products may work great for one child and may not for the other. Here are a few products I used for my newborn baby’s sensitive skin:
Eucerin Original Lotion and Creme
Eucerin Original Lotion and Creme was the best baby lotion for my newborn and worked wonders. This was the product that was recommended by my pediatrician. The Eucerin lotion really helps your newborn baby to relieve the extremely dry, sensitive skin. You can find Eucerin products in any grocery or drug store. The Eucerin Original Creme and Lotion provides a protective barrier and seals moisture into the skin. The Eucerin products also contain very little ingredients for maximum security and are fragrance-free and non-irritating.
The complete ingredients on the label for Eucerin Original Lotion and Creme:
Water, mineral oil, isopropyl myristate, PEG-40 Sorbitan Peroleate, Glyceryl Lanolate, Sorbitol, Propylene Glycol, Cetyl Palmitate, Magnesium Sulfate, Aluminum Stearate, Lanolin Alcohol, BHT , Methylchloroisothiazolinone, and Methy Lisothiazo Linone.
Gentle Naturals Baby Eczema Cream
Gentle Naturals Baby Eczema Cream was given to me to try on my newborn baby by my husband’s patient and it worked great also. This baby lotion is a super rich, soothing moisturizer for babies especially with eczema. The Gentle Naturals Baby Eczema Cream has petrolatum and dimethicone to form a barrier on the skin to prevent moisture loss.
