As a mom, I always want the best for my girls, but choosing the right skincare for my girls can sometimes be difficult. What is really safe? Can they prevent or subside rashes and other skin issues? What are the ingredients we can trust? So many concerns came to my attention when curating baby and kids skincare. I also received so many DMs from #ksistersfam on when we are bringing baby and kids skincare and sorry it took so long to bring in! It was hard to find the RIGHT ONE~
I sampled quite a few brands since Yeonsoo & Jooha were younger but never really found a brand that I was satisfied with. Until recently, I saw that many mommies on Momsholic (a popular KR forum for mommies to share reviews & recommendations) were recommending 2 brands - one of which is Botanical Therapy. Since Yeonsoo and Jooha are older now, our new mom, Stephanie from #teamksisters who just had a newborn tested and reviewed these baby skincare brands on which was most effective.
WHAT TO CONSIDER FOR BABY LOTION?
There are so many baby lotions in the market, our criteria were the main concerns many parents have:
-
Ingredients - Free of 9 harmful chemicals* that can cause skin irritation + pass allergen-free tests
-
Fragrances - While added fragrances may smell nice, some might cause sensitive skin to get overly dry and irritated
- Suitable for Sensitive & Eczema Skin
-
Performance - Hydrating but no greasy/ sticky feeling. Aid in treating eczema, itch, redness and rash (which are common skin concerns that babies are prone to so you don't have to worry too much when this happens!).
*Methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, isopropyl paraben, isobutyl paraben, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, phenoxyethanol, benzyl alcohol
WHY BOTANICAL THERAPY'S MOISTURE THERAPY BABY LOTION
And Botanical Therapy Baby Lotion passed all the criteria above! Stephanie also noticed that her baby's skin rashes and redness greatly reduced after 4 days of application after using the baby cream and lotion.
We also really like Botanical Therapy because it is a brainchild of a company that specialises in baby skincare, not adult skincare! So when we reviewed their lineup and formulas, we knew the brand has a deep understanding about baby skin and its behaviour. Plus, Botanical Therapy also brings in products such as kids conditioner as well as individual shampoo and body wash (instead of your usual 2-in-1!), which are not commonly found in other brands and are so rare! The Kids line will be launching in Sept together with their kids suncare and cleansing water which are very well-loved by KR moms too!
Consumer Testers Review
Their award-winning lotion features:
- No Fragrances or Dyes: An unscented formula to prevent any possible irritation.
- Natural Ingredients: NO harsh chemicals = Minimize skin irritations. Safe and natural ingredients such as Calendula, Hibiscus Flower extract and Witch Hazel to cleanse, moisturise and protect baby’s skin.
- Performance: Moisturises the skin for up to 48 hours without leaving it feeling greasy or tacky. Lightweight and fast-absorbing.
- Ceramide Complex - (identical to the lipids naturally found in the skin) to strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier for it to better retain and lock in moisture for healthier, more resilient and suppler skin.
- Sage flower and Skullcap extract - Calms and soothes even the most sensitive of skin types, ideal for babies and newborns. Plus, it even works on toddlers above the age of 3 who are prone to sensitive skin!
- Eczema-Friendly: Hydrogen water (no, not just any type of normal water) balances the skin's pH levels. It is extremely important to ensure skin's pH levels are at its optimum for it to better function, absorb and take in the active ingredients for more pronounced results. This is thus, especially ideal for the treatment and prevention of eczema flare-ups in babies and toddlers.
