Be careful what you use if you have allergies or sensitive skin.
Also, it is a good idea to watch what you give your baby AND what you put on your baby too.
Many folks like to use chamomile products on themselves and on their baby and it is a wonderful herb for the skin, but it is in the ragweed family and so you should be very careful about using it until you know if you or your baby has any allergies.
The same thing goes for Shea nut Butter.
It has similar properties to latex so if you or baby has a latex allergy - do not use anything with shea in it.
Did you know that most corn and corn products (including the old standby baby powder AKA corn starch) these days is GMO (genetically modified organism) ?
This does not mean that it is simply a cross-bred crop - it means the scientists took genes from other organisms like animals and fish or unrelated plants.
There are many GMO veggies and other items on the market and they are becoming more and more common so be careful when you shop.
To be sure and make sure the one you want to use isn't GMO, look for organic corn which must be non-GMO to be called organic.
It is your choice what you give your baby or use on him/her of course.
I am not here to judge, I just want you to be able to make an informed choice.
If you choose natural and organic, you should know what to look for on the labels and in the descriptions.
Look for all natural products with very few ingredients so you can better moniter any reactions with your baby's skin.
Generally, soaps with goat milk, calendula and organic corn silk are great for little ones skin (unless there is an allergy to one of those which is rare) and are even well loved by grown-ups too :)
Just remember that when if comes to delicate skin - like baby skin, less is usually best when it comes to ingredients even all natural organic ones.
