Baby Skin Care


Baby's skin is very sensitive and thin, easy to dry, easy to damp especially in the bottom which use diapers everyday / sweating. For these reasons baby's skin should be kept healthy and always fresh.
1. Change baby's diaper every time it gets wet. Clean baby's skin from urine or faeces remaining carefully. Use wet cotton or paper towels, then drain.
2. Use baby oil to soften and remove dirt and dry clot. Baby oil can also used to remove the crust of the scalp.
3. Dry the baby's body thoroughly after showering, especially in skin folds.
4. Use baby lotion to keep skin moisture and softness to reduce the risk of skin dryness and irritation. Use everyday after bathing on the whole body surface.
5. Use the powder to keep skin fresh. Powder also prevents prickly heat and irritation. Use after every bath in the chest, back, neck and crease areas. Avoid powder from contact with the eyes and inhaled by the baby.
6. Use baby cream to prevent and relieve diaper rash. Use after every shower and before using diapers, especially in areas exposed to urine and faeces.
