How to Choose the Right Baby Lotion for Your Little One

How to Choose the Right Baby Lotion for Your Little One

Your baby’s skin is thinner, more delicate, and more sensitive than yours — which means choosing the right lotion is key to keeping it healthy and soft. With so many products out there, here’s what to look for (and what to avoid) when picking the perfect baby lotion.

1. Check for Gentle, Safe Ingredients.
Look for ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, and ceramides that help strengthen the skin barrier. Avoid alcohol, parabens, and artificial fragrances.

2. Choose Hypoallergenic and Dermatologist-Tested Products.
These products are less likely to cause irritation and are designed for sensitive baby skin.

3. Go Fragrance-Free or Lightly Scented.
If your baby’s skin is easily irritated, fragrance-free is best. A mild natural scent is okay for babies without sensitivities.

4. Test on a Small Area First.
Before applying new lotion all over, try a patch test on your baby’s arm or leg to check for any reaction.

5. Apply Daily After Bath.
Use baby lotion right after a bath to lock in moisture and keep your baby’s skin soft throughout the day.
