Johnson's Baby Lotion - Gentle and Mild for Delicate Skin and Everyday Use – 24h Moisturisation, 500 ml

Product Information

The fragrance in Johnson's Baby Lotion is simply included in the ingredients list as 'parfum', so it's hard to know exactly what it is. However, Dr Olioso explains it's still possible that some people may react to ingredients other than fragrance, including preservatives. Dr Olioso says: 'Both sodium hydroxide and sodium bitartrate help control the final pH of the product, so that it's not too acidic and irritating to your baby's skin.' Helps keep the ingredients in our baby lotion from separating and gives it a consistent texture. Naturally derived from vegetable oil.

So long as a lotion is gentle and made with safe ingredients, you can apply it to your baby’s skin whenever and wherever the skin is dry. Baby skin is absorbent, so anything applied to the skin is easily brought into the body, Solomonian says. Infant skin problems, including dry skin, can be caused by unnecessary skin products. Many babies won’t need lotion. In fact, most babies’ skin generally doesn’t need much of anything other than an occasional sponge bath. Johnson's Baby Lotion contains titanium dioxide, an 'opacifying agent' that helps to give the product its signature milky appearance. Just like you lather your skin with body lotion to fight dryness, your baby might experience dry skin, too.

Dimethicone means the product 'glides' and can be rubbed in efficiently - ideal for wriggling infants or for gentle baby massaging - plus you can use less. Food grade olive or coconut oil are great as moisturizers, and plant-based creams and salves such as cocoa butter, beeswax, and aloe are gentle and safe to put on baby’s skin,” Solomonian adds.
