Today’s post is about caring for a baby’s skin. 

Dear new mum, do you know that a newborn baby’s skin is paper-thin?

That’s why a baby’s skin needs additional care. 

Are you wondering how you could take care of your baby’s delicate skin?

Then today’s post is for you 😊

Baby Skin Care: Easy Tips for Keeping Your Newborn baby’s skin healthy 

1. Use Lukewarm Water: 

Avoid giving your baby hot water baths. Hot water robs the skin of moisture and makes it dry.  Use lukewarm water instead.

2. USE MILD SOAPS: Always use mild soap, harsh can make the skin dry by removing moisture and natural high from the baby’s skin. 

3. USE SOFT TOWELS: Soft towels are best to avoid skin rashes. Always remember to pat your baby dry and never rub the towel on the baby’s skin 
4. MOISTURISE: Try to use a mild and non- fragrant moisturiser to lock in the moisture of your baby’s skin after every bath. 

5. OIL MASSAGES: Massage your baby with natural oils like coconuts or almond oil to keep her skin soft and nourished. Please don’t use fragrant oils with chemicals on your baby. 

1. CLOTHES: ‘ Cotton clothes help absorb sweat and keep skin dry. They also maintain the body temperature. Dress your baby in soft cotton clothes avoid synthetic.

Taking care of babies and their skin requires a lot of care. Use today’s tips to give your baby healthy and nourished skin.
