Rocco seems to have dry skin is there anything i can use on him? It's almost like its cracked.
 
Kaidens Got The Same Thing...I Was Putting Johnsons Soft Lotion On Him After His Bath, And Found That It Hurt Him..Think It Must Have Been Stingy! So Try And Not Use Anything Fragranced That Could Irritate It! Ive Just Been Using E45 Nightly And It Seems To Be Dying Down :) x
 
my daughters is the same the health visitor advised baby oil
 
have you ever heard of Aqueous cream? My Midwife recommended it when I had lily, she had terribly dry skin, this work soo well, you can get it from lots of places, even tesco. Hope it gets better soon hun, You can also pop some in his bath and it works a treat.

My midwife recommended olive oil when Sam was first born - just a bit on some cotton wool, and it works really well x
 
charlie had this for about 6 weeks i reccomend olive oil its natural so should irritate even more like the lotions might xxx
 
Aqueous Cream. It unfragranced and fixes the problem quickly.
 
Extra virgin olive oil is the best - far better than baby oil!
 
their is a cream i got, and u can get it for the bath as well, u can get it in boots near the johnsons stuff, i was told about the aqueours cream but i got told that their is something in that can agruvaite babies skin as well. its called oilatum, i think it is brillaint, and i got told after i brought it u can get it on perscription but it depends if u want to be hassled going all the way to drs to get a perscription for it. here is the link for it u will want the junior one, https://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1030967&classificationid=1026979
 
We used baby lotion at first but it didn't seem to do much good so we started using baby oil. Cleared up most of the dry skin within a few days :D
 
Avoid all the Johnson products for now hun...don't even use the Johnson bath products...aqueous cream worked wonders on my LO...should do the job hun x
 
My baby has dry skin - I have tried a lot of creams and I have found oilatum to be the best - I use the cream and oil for the bath. I get both on perscription. My daughter gets eczema on her face on and off and I can notice an improvement overnight.
 
Anyone try Mustela? (Stelatopia line)

Was looking to get this for LO and her dry skin...
 
Not heard of Mustela.
We used extra virgin olive oil and it cleared up Ryan's dry skin within 2 or 3 days. I promise he looked like he was falling to pieces :rofl:

I used Olive oil on Olivia. Worked a treat! Also worked fantastic when she had cradle Cap as the shampoo's did nothing.
