Many people understand the importance of feeding their child healthy, organic foods, but not as many consider what they are feeding their babies’ skin.
Recently, Clinical Paediatrics Journal reported that more than 75% of newborn babies suffer rashes in the first few months, and it is suggested that too many creams and washes formulated “especially for babies sensitive skin” are a contributory factor. Their research notes that babies skin is thinner than adult skin and therefore is more likely to soak up toxins from some topically applied products.
Most skincare products available in supermarkets today use ingredients that are likely to contain formaldehyde, 1.4-dioxane and even possibly nitrosamines, all of which are cancer-causing and/or highly irritating. In addition, they also contain a larger amount of ingredients that are non-active – water (sometimes more than 70%) and synthetic ingredients which are used to fragrance and preserve as cheaply as possible.
Our selection of organic skincare use a range of organic formulations that contain a high level of active plant extract and are formulated using certified organic ingredients.
All our products are free from Lanolin; Petrochemicals; Parabens; Sodium lauryl/laureth sulphate; artificial colourants, fragrances, and flavours; flouride or synthetic additives – giving you the assurance that you are feeding your babies’ skin with 100% gentle, organic formulations.
