Baby shampoos, lotions, diaper creams, soaps and powders may expose infants to chemicals that have been linked with allergies and possible reproductive birth defects and early puberty in girls.
The chemicals, caled phthalates, are found in many baby products and used to stabilise fragrances.
So if you still choose baby products because of the smell or colour or just attractive packaging and advertising, think again.
The best products for you and your baby's skin, are those with
a) no colours (identified with some characters and numbers),
b) no artificial fragrances, no mineral oils(parafin),
c) no preservatives (formaldyhyde),
d) no chemicals (SLS),
e) no alcohol (propylene glycol) and
f) no animal ingredients(Lanolin)
Yes, quality products like BE skincare, Be bath & body, Be haircare, Green Tea Oil and Aboriginal Gold, will cost a bit more, but it's worth it.
It's actually affordable, if you consider the pain, stress and suffering from exposing your baby's skin to harsh chemicals at such an early age. Visit my eBay store to invest today.
