It's a great moisturizer, great on rashes, etc. I also just started using their head to toe baby wash and I like that a lot too. We were using a J&amp;J naturals one, but it's a little too drying to his skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118173 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 10:06:12 +0000 cascademom 2118173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>J&amp;J all over body wash/shampoo. We use their lotions too. For thicker lotion, we use Aquaphor baby cream/Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy. I use the Aveeno stuff for myself with my dry winter skin. For diaper cream, I use Desitin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118159 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 09:53:33 +0000 catlady 2118159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a sensitive skin LO and we use:</p> <p>Shampoo/body wash - California baby sensitive (have also used Mustela when LO was younger and had cradle cap)<br /> Lotion - California baby sensitive in summer, Aveeno baby eczema in winter<br /> Diaper - Old school A&amp;D ointment is the only thing that doesn't cause her to break out, and we only use it if necessary </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118139 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 09:41:34 +0000 msplatypus 2118139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Ca baby for just about everything. I started with Aveeno but it gave her a terrible rash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118132 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 09:39:21 +0000 snowjewelz 2118132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aquaphor for sure! I love that you can use it pretty much anywhere for anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118057 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 08:49:20 +0000 jhd 2118057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used Mustela products for his hair for the first few months. You can get them at Target. He had the tiniest bit of cradle cap and when we started that it cleared up and never came back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118056 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 08:49:15 +0000 Mrs. Twine 2118056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love things that have more than one use, and I am a fan of not over-loading my bathroom cupboards with a million products for a million people. Which may or may not be the reason my husband and I share a shampoo and both smell like a pretty man. </p> <p>For the girls we use Nature's Baby Organics shampoo/bodywash (which can also be a bubble bath!), and Booda Butter for basically everything else. I use the Booda Butter on scrapes, diaper rash, for cream, to spot treat eczema spots before they get bad, lip gloss... you name it. It's awesome and it smells like chocolate. Which is probably why we have to keep the dog at least 50 feet away any time it's open so he doesn't eat the jar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118052 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 08:47:41 +0000 SweetiePie 2118052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aquaphor for every day barrier with diaper changes. If he has a rash (we had a few due to a night time pooping spree!) I swear by Triple Paste. We tried aquaphor and butt paste on it and Triple Paste was the only one that helped. </p> <p>I love the smell of Mustela baby products. You can get it at Walgreens where I am (NYC) and you can register for it. Specifically love their newborn foam shampoo. It got rid of his cradle cap right away and it never came back.<br /> We had to stop using scented because he has some tiny amounts of eczema. But they have an eczema line too, which is what we now use. </p> <p>For shampoo (I still need to use scented shampoo on him, Eczema isn't anywhere near his head/face) I just started using Noodle &amp; Boo. It's on diapers.com and it smells aaaaaamazing. </p> <p>Lotion we use the mustela eczema line, but again if you don't have to worry about scent their regular lotion and the noodle and boo both smell awesome. </p> <p>I got scolded by my sister for having baby powder on my changing table before he was born. So I don't use it. But I know a mom who does use it and it works best for them and their ped said its fine. So just do some research and make a decision for you! I think they make safer powders now and there are ways to apply it so it's safer (to minimize particles near their face). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118042 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 08:41:11 +0000 littlebittyhouse 2118042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>CA Baby for baby wash - LOVE the calendula smell<br /> Hydrolatum (behind the counter at CVS) for winter cream<br /> Vanicream (Target/Walgreens) for every day cream<br /> Mustela hydrostick to battle chapped winter cheeks<br /> Balmex for diaper cream<br /> All work well for my sensitive skinned babe! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118034 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 08:37:59 +0000 bushelandapeck 2118034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>CJ's BUTTer for diaper cream, Mustela for shampoo, hydrolatum for lotion (DS has eczema). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2118019 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 08:21:37 +0000 jetsa 2118019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love california baby for body wash/shampoo, lotion, and sunscreen. For diaper rash we use Bordeaux butt paste!</p> <p>We're the rare ones that use goldbond baby powder but I also have a little boy who gets hot easily which is the perfect conditions for yeast. The ped's decision was that powder has been used forever and unless we're using way too much he's not going to inhale it and it keeps the yeast away so win. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117968 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 07:05:39 +0000 Kimberlybee 2117968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aquaphor works wonders for DD's super dry skin. I also like the mustela foam shampoo and body wash. The diaper cream that works for DD is triple paste. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117967 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 07:05:04 +0000 hilsy85 2117967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>triple paste for diaper rash<br /> aquaphor for prevention/any random skin dryness<br /> cetaphil lotion for every day body/face lotion<br /> aquaphor body wash and shampoo for bathtime </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117963 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 06:57:07 +0000 Mrs. Coral 2117963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby Wash: Mustela <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005277OSM/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?qid=1427111574&#038;sr=8-15&#038;keywords=mustela" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005277OSM/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?qid=1427111574&#038;sr=8-15&#038;keywords=mustela</a></p> <p>Lotion: Coconut Oil or Lubriderm (pediatrician recommendation)</p> <p>Diaper Cream: We have Desitin, but haven't needed it yet. *knock on wood*</p> <p>We don't use baby powder due to allergies and asthma.

The only others we tried were J&amp;J and Aveeno and they just didn't work for her sensitive skin. For creams we use desitine if there is a rash and aquaphor. We were told no baby powder at all by the hospital because it can cause certain types of cancer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117905 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 00:20:17 +0000 HLK208 2117905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Noodle &amp; Boo shampoo and lotion (baby stores, Nordstrom and Amazon carries it).

I'll be trying Honest Co next to see if it's worth the cost/hype.<br /> We also use Aveeno lotion or Aquaphor as needed, and Butt Paste or AD ointment for diaper rash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117881 Sun, 22 Mar 2015 22:27:29 +0000 MrsRcCar 2117881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use babyganics but are looking to switch to ava Anderson. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117878 Sun, 22 Mar 2015 22:24:10 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2117878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got the free sample kit of honest company and then registered for burts bees bath stuff so I could see which of the two I like better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117835 Sun, 22 Mar 2015 20:48:59 +0000 MenagerieMama 2117835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Burts bees shampoo/wash.<br /> Grovia magic stick for diaper cream.<br /> Burts Bees baby oil or Aquaphor for lotioning (would prefer a more natural version for aquaphor but it works for her eczema!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117831 Sun, 22 Mar 2015 20:43:57 +0000 youboots 2117831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the Honest Co. Also per my hospital no go on baby power, they can inhale it (it is cornstarch) which is not good. We have been using butt paste for diaper cream. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117829 Sun, 22 Mar 2015 20:42:22 +0000 avivoca 2117829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Dove sensitive skin bar soap and J&amp;J/earths best shampoo. We had a hard time finding products because I couldn't use some of the ones we were gifted due to skin allergies. These work well for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-baby-skin-care-products#post-2117820 Sun, 22 Mar 2015 20:36:49 +0000 catomd00 2117820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use burts bees.

I do like Honest Co. shampoo/body wash in one. </p> <p>You might start with all fragrence free products, in case your baby has sensitive skin. </p> <p>For lotion, I love both Cetaphil and CeraVe. I also have a couple of recommendations for some excema cream if that ends up being needed. </p>
