Cuddling the little one can be pure bliss, but for many moms and dads, that joy can be overshadowed by a wave of worry when they sees tiny red patches, dry and flaky skin, or rashes on baby’s delicate skin.
Babies’ skin barriers are still developing, which makes them more susceptible to reactions to temperature changes, humidity, friction from clothing, and even their movements. This sensitivity can lead to dryness and irritation, causing discomfort.
But there are simple steps parents can take to help soothe and protect babies’ budding skin barrier. Here are some of them, as shared by local label Human Nature:
1. Hydration is key. Breastmilk or formula is key to keeping baby well-hydrated, which plumps up the skin and prevents dryness.
2. Dress for comfort. Opt for soft, loose-fitting clothes that allow the skin to breathe and prevent irritation from rough fabrics.
3. Limit baths. Frequent baths can strip away natural oils. So when dryness or irritation strikes, skip a bath and shift to gentle cleansing.
4. Embrace natural solutions. Look for products specifically formulated for babies crafted with safe and natural ingredients that support a healthy skin barrier, like
Centella Asiatica, or Cica.
This wonder plant boasts a 3,000-year history in folk medicine. Nicknamed “Tiger Grass” (legend has it tigers use it to heal their wounds), Cica has long been valued in traditional Asian medicine for its ability to soothe irritated skin and promote wound healing. Even today, this natural powerhouse continues to impress, trending in adult skincare for its calming and soothing properties.
Cica helps draw and retain moisture in baby’s skin, combating dryness and keeping it feeling soft and supple. It also helps strengthen the skin barrier, preventing precious moisture from escaping and keeping your baby’s skin hydrated throughout the day.
Known for its soothing properties, Cica calms irritation and repairs rough, dry, red patches. By addressing these concerns, Cica can help you keep baby calm and comfy.
Human Nature recognizes its potential to comfort and protect even the most delicate skin, thus the launch of its Natural Cica Baby wash and lotion.
The gentle wash effectively cleanses baby’s delicate skin without stripping natural oils. This leaves your baby’s skin feeling clean, refreshed, and safe.
The lotion, meanwhile, hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier and locks in moisture, protecting against dryness. Plus, a nourishing blend of Sunflower oil, Avocado oil and Aloe Vera leaves little one’s skin feeling soft and smooth.
So moms and dads, embrace worry-free cuddles and support baby’s developing skin with nature’s soothing Cica.
