The most important key to good infant skin care is -moisturize moisturize and more moisturize!

  • No amount of moisture is more moisture for an infant since infant skin, though mature functionally, takes time to mature structurally.
  • The lipids in the skin that provide moisture are relatively less in infant skin and so they require more external moisturisers.
  • Select moisturisers which have liquid paraffin, white paraffin and sometimes calamine (especially in summer)

P. S-moisturising just after a bath after pat drying is the best thing to do for your infant's skin.

In case you have a concern or query you can always consult a specialist & get answers to your questions!
