Cetaphil, the dermatologist and paediatrician recommended skincare brand that makes one of the most gentle and effective cleansers and moisturisers, has just launched Cetaphil baby, a skincare range for baby which helps create the foundations for healthy skin development.
With five key products, the new Cetaphil baby range keeps the focus on baby's needs with each product having the singular and critical goal of protecting and nourishing newborn and infant skin with botanical extracts including natural camomile, shea butter, aloe vera and almond oil. All Cetaphil baby products don’t cause tears and are soap free, paraben free, mineral oil free, lightly scented, pH balanced, hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested.
Using extra gentle skincare products designed for delicate skin is always important as baby’s skin is different as it is thinner and 10 times more sensitive[1]. It also has a less effective skin barrier to protect against external factors[2].
Dr Howard Chilton, a neonatologist (a baby’s physician) for over 35 years and best-selling baby book author, explains in his independent blog www.babydoc.com.au that babies have less skin oil, as the sebaceous glands are hardly functional for the early weeks after birth. It is only after a few weeks that they become more active and babies can develop cradle cap and seborrhoeic eczema (an inflammatory skin disorder affecting the scalp, face and torso). To help speed the process up he advises using a moisturiser.
Dr Chilton also believes massage is beneficial as baby’s skin is the most sensitive organ of communication and they rely on and relish tactile sensation. There is little that calms a baby more successfully than a massage from their mother. Many mothers use it as a regular part of the baby’s pre-sleep routine or to calm them down in the evening. He believes massaging your baby is a fundamental way to allow intimacy into our lives and is important to keep them calm, connected and happy.
All bottles have been ergonomically designed not to slip out of your hands when washing, moisturising or massaging baby’s delicate skin. The specially formulated Cetaphil baby range includes:
