Building a Natural Baby Skincare Routine: Moisturiser, Massage Oil & Nappy Care

Baby skin is thinner and more sensitive than adult skin, which is why so many parents look for simple, plant based products rather than long ingredient lists they can't pronounce. Here's a straightforward routine that covers the essentials: daily moisture, massage time, and nappy care.

Daily Moisture: Baby Jelly

Baby Jelly takes everything nice about baby oils and turns it into an easy to use jelly that glides on without spills or leaks. Rich in nourishing plant oils, it absorbs quickly, leaving skin soft, protected and comfortably hydrated. The flip top cap makes it simple to use for a quick top up, at home or on the go.

Massage Time: Baby Oil with Lavender & Bergamot

Baby massage is as much about connection as it is about skin. Our Baby Oil with Lavender & Bergamot blends Avocado, Rice Bran and Almond oils with Vitamin E, gliding easily over the skin and absorbing gently. The light Lavender and Bergamot scent is there to bring a sense of calm to the routine, for baby and parent alike.

Nappy Care: Baby Bum Bum Cream

Nappy time calls for something protective but breathable. Baby Bum Bum Cream is formulated with calming, protective ingredients that help comfort sensitive areas and support the skin's natural barrier, applying easily without feeling heavy or clogging the skin.

Putting It Together: A Simple Daily Rhythm

A simple rhythm many parents find works well: Baby Jelly for quick, everyday moisture; the massage oil worked into bath or bedtime routines a few times a week; and Bum Bum Cream at each nappy change. None of it needs to be complicated. Baby skincare works best kept simple.

FAQs

What ingredients should I avoid in baby skincare?

Many parents look to avoid synthetic fragrances, parabens and mineral oil in baby products, opting instead for plant based, vegan formulations. If your baby has a diagnosed skin condition such as eczema, it's worth checking with your GP or public health nurse before introducing new products.

Can I use baby massage oil every day?

Yes, though many parents reserve it for bath time or bedtime a few times a week as part of a calming routine, rather than a daily step.

How often should I apply nappy cream?

Typically at each nappy change, or as needed if you notice any redness or irritation. Persistent nappy rash is worth discussing with a pharmacist or GP.
