Organic Baby Lotions
From LoveToKnow Organic
If you don't want to expose your infant's skin to potentially harmful chemicals, it's a good idea to include organic baby lotions in his or her skin care routine. After all, keeping your child's skin safe from dangerous substances is just as important as providing your baby with healthy, all-natural sources of nutrition. After all, the skin is the largest organ, and anything rubbed into a baby's skin is absorbed into his or her body.
Choosing Organic Baby Lotions
There are many different types of organic baby lotions. Lotions with artificial ingredients can be very irritating to the tender skin of babies. Synthetic ingredients commonly found in lotion, such as mineral oil and petroleum jelly, can be very drying to the skin of children and adults. These synthetic substances actually rob natural moisture from skin, resulting in increased drying, flaking, and itching rather than miniaturization.
The best way to make sure the lotions you use on your child's skin actually provide effective hydration is to select organic skincare products designed just for babies. When you're shopping for products to soothe your child's skin, pay very close attention to labeling. Watch for hidden chemicals and be careful only to select brands that are truly organic.
When choosing lotion, select cruelty-free products that do not contain:
- Artificial preservatives
- Dyes
- Fragrances
- Mineral oil
- Petroleum jelly
- Toxins
