What are Baby Lotions?
Baby lotions are specially designed to hydrate, nourish and soothe the skin of the baby, especially after bath. Baby lotions are moisturizers that offer natural protection against external aggressions. It protects the baby from the cold, the wind, the sun, and other natural, man-sourced, or synthetic agents or elements.
Why Should You Buy a Good Baby Lotion?
During nine months, in his mother’s womb, babies grow and evolve in an aqueous environment. Their skins, therefore, undergo a “shock” during birth, discovering the terrestrial environment. The newborn then experiences his first baths and discovers his first daily rubbing (with clothes and diapers). The infant’s skin can get weakened, be dehydrated, dry, and/or sensitive. To protect against these problems, a good baby lotion, among other body care products, is required.
How to Choose the Best Baby Lotion?
Faced with the multitude of products, it can sometimes be difficult to navigate and make the best choice. The ideal is to understand our little one’s skin problem to respond as specifically as possible.
- Moisturizing lotion: Babies with slightly dry and/or dehydrated skin need a classic moisturizing lotion.
- Protective lotion: Babies with skin weakened by external aggressions need a protective, sensitive, and ultra-mild lotion to strengthen the skin barrier.
- Atopic lotions: Extremely dry, peeling skin with eczema needs a specific atopic skin cream that will provide immediate relief and deep nutrition.
- Healing lotions: Damaged skins need a repair product to stimulate the repair and regeneration of the skin.
What Features Should You Consider When Buying a Baby Lotion?
To choose the best lotion products for babies, it’s important to pay attention to their composition, that is to say, the ingredients they contain.
- Avoid SLS: Ingredients such as sodium lauryl sulfate, also called SLS, are on the list of ingredients to avoid. They are surfactants. They serve as emulsifiers, thickeners, and stabilizers. The problem is that these molecules are irritating to the skin, mucous membranes, and eyes. Consequently, if you use products containing SLS too often, you can weaken the skin and its protective layer.
- Watch out for endocrine disruptors! Although they tend to be disappearing from cosmetics, we can still find them in some body products. These conservatives (with various names that all end with -parabens) are the ones that cause allergies. They are suspected of being endocrine disruptors and carcinogens.
- Perfumes and essential oils: Although not dangerous in itself, perfume (and therefore alcohol) must be removed from the composition of children’s products. The same goes for essential oils that are sometimes used in baby body products. Perfumes (such as limonene) are allergenic substances, which can then cause allergies.
- Choose natural and organic baby lotions: As with all family cosmetics, it is better to choose a natural and organic baby lotion. Natural calendula, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, and Vitamin E are great ingredients for baby lotions.
How Much Does a Top-Rated Baby Lotion Cost?
Baby lotions are generally inexpensive. The cheapest products are available for $4 to $5. Affordable baby lotions generally sell for under $10. Meanwhile, the high-end baby lotions can cost more than $10 and those in packs sell for around $10 to $25.
Final Verdict
The best body lotions for babies are those without alcohol, SLS, essential oils, allergens, and carcinogens. Essential oils are very powerful products and are not appropriate for the little ones. SLS may cause itching, redness or irritation, and even allergies in children. Choose lotions with natural surfactants such as those from coconut (coconut glucocid or lauryl glucoside). Finally, choose a lotion according to your baby’s skin type or skin problem.
