About the ingredients:
Sweet Almond Oil: Dermatologists often recommend using almond oil on baby's skin. Almond oil is high in vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and E. It's naturally rich in emollients, helping to retain moisture while giving additional hydration to skin. It also helps to heal inflammation, eczema and rashes while relieving the itching that accompanies these conditions. This makes sweet almond oil perfect for baby's sensitive skin.
Calendula: Calendula is known to stimulate physiological regeneration and skin healing. For centuries, it has been used to treat skin disorders and enhance the wound healing process. This herb has a high amount of flavonoids, which can help reduce inflammation and thereby speed up the stages of healing. These same flavonoids also fight off bacteria, viruses and other pathogens protecting the wound from infection. It helps soothe sore, inflamed and itchy skin conditions.
Lavender: Lavender infused oil is very helpful in treating rashes. It gives this balm a wonderfully delicate fragrance of lavender without using lavender essential oil which shouldn't be used on infants. Lavender infused oil helps to inhibit bacteria and contains soothing properties which help to reduce inflammation. This allows it to treat skin redness and conditions such as burns, eczema and psoriasis.
Chamomile: Chamomile has anti bacterial, anti fungal, anti inflammatory an anti-parasitic properties and is especially helpful for diaper rash. Ancient Greeks infused chamomile in oil and used it to heal rashes.
Rose Petals: Rose petals are infused creating skin soothing and softening properties. It's anti inflammatory and calming properties can help sooth rosecea and eczema. The natural oils found in roses help lock moisture into the skin, keeping skin feeling smooth. Rose is especially beneficial for those with sensitive skin because the sugars in its petals create a soothing feeling.
Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is one of the most nourishing oils you can put onto your child’s skin. The small molecular structure of coconut oil allows for easy absorption through the skin and into the cell structure of the connective tissues. This means that it has the ability to actually restore damaged or diseased skin. Coconut oil will not only nourish baby’s skin, it also helps eliminate cradle cap.
Shea Butter: Shea butter makes the skin incredibly soft. It is high in vitamins A and E and helps to promote collagen production in the skin. Shea butter contains naturally occurring antibacterial, anti inflammatory and healing compounds that work to resolve, soothe and clear up skin irritations such as diaper rash.
Beeswax: Beeswax creates a barrier which helps to seal moisture into the skin, while still allowing it to breathe. Beeswax also contains vitamin A, which improves hydration to the skin and promotes cell regeneration.
