Organic Toiletries for baby's skin and you

[bluegintonic]

I just wanna share my experience on this and to those with problematic skin, be they babies or grown ups.I hope it helps!

I've been using Mustela for baby since birth and so far, wala naman ako problem.My issue is it's marketed as "all natural"! Think again! I don't know why they market it such but let me assure you it's not. I use most of the products-shampoo,2-in-1 wash,cleansing solution,hydra bebe face cream,lotion,even the stelatopia lotion as well for when she has flare ups.The problem is, I can't indulge her in tub baths kasi hindi naman talaga bumubula yong multi-sensory bubble bath nila. she has eczema on certain areas wihich come and go-sa inner and outer elbow,sa face and now recently sa butt area.Alaga sa diaper changes ang anak ko, I wash her everytime nag bowel movement, daper wise I use BabyLove ( MamyPoko here Aussie), I use Sudocrem as nappy paste as well. Lately hindi na mawala mga rashes nya so I'm thinking I must be doing it wrong? I didn't know what else to do...til I switched her to all organic items. It worked! I buy chlorine-free diapers, I skipped the zinc oxide based Sudocrem and put only Bepanthene cream on the spot where the rash is-it worked! Nawala rin rashes nya sa elbows when I switched her to organic bath.

Personally ako rin gumamit na ng organic shampoo kasi hindi ako mawalan-walan ng dandruff kahit ano pa gamitin ko-kahit selenium sulfide based pa at gaano katagal ako magbanlaw after mag-shampoo.I've never known na allergic pala ako sa SLS contents ng most shampoos.I just gave it a try tutal naman lahat na halos pati pag-consult sa derma nagawa ko na.panay chemicals pati medicated shampoos,lotions, etc....na lalo lang pala nakaka-irritate. Sa sobrang kati ng scalp ko nagdudugo na minsan sa kati, daig ko pa may lice!

Kaya kung problem-prone ang skins ng baby nyo or even kayo mismo, try switching to organic products.It helped me,without having to resort to medicines (and I'm a nurse!) .HTH
