Bath & Body • Baby Carrot Borage Butter Eczema Cream

Baby Carrot (by Wild Carrot Herbals) Borage Butter Eczema Cream



If you have a new baby with sensitive skin or eczema, you know it needs extra gentle care. The Borage Butter Eczema Cream from Wild Carrot Herbals will help soothe those itchy spots and help clear them up. Try the Oatmeal Bath for itchy skin too, whether caused by rashes, bites, or sunburn. Using gentle body washes and lotions will also help prevent irritation. This is a great natural line, mostly packaged in glass. They have great stuff for moms (Nipple Whip) and dads (Mountain Man Lotion) too.

Bath & Body • Druide Eco Certified Body Care

Druide Eco-Certified Organic Body Care for the Whole Family



One of the largest organic product lines I have ever seen in North America, this company is located in Canada, and has EcoCert organic certification for its entire range of products. They have a baby care line, with a great baby oil spray. Some of the baby line contains lavender, so just check the ingredients list if you are looking to avoid it. For mom's tired feet or aching muscles, try one of the massage creams the company makes. They have a beautiful texture, are not greasy and not dry and are extremely easy to handle.

Bath & Body • John Masters Organics

John Masters Organics



Huge, huge fan of John Masters. Before I tried it I just couldn't believe that it would smell as good as it does or work as well. The pictures above are of my particular favorites. I think it is important to use natural cosmetics and skincare as a mom since we are always skin to skin with our delicate little babies. I have even used the Lip Calm lip balm on kids too and they like it. It tastes neutral with the tiniest hint of citrus. The Blood Orange and Vanilla lotion is fantastic, best natural lotion I have used, and I have used quite a few. I can't do without the Citrus & Neroli Detangler, and for a pick me up, a little spritz of the toning mist does the trick, and my face is getting a little treatment at the same time.

Bath & Body • CleanWell Hand Sanitizer

CleanWell Hand Sanitizer



Soap and water are a great way to wash up, but what about when you don't have a sink handy? Bring along some CleanWell, invented by a mom who has a son with an immune condition. The germ-fighting ingredient is Ingenium, a patented combination of natural essential oils that kills 99.99% of germs, without toxic or artificial chemicals.

Bath & Body • Kiss My Face Foaming Hand Soap

Kiss My Face Foaming Hand Soap



New moms are always looking for ways to save time and effort. If you wash your hands as much as I do, you will appreciate the time you save lathering and rinsing with this self-foaming soap. Extra benefits include all-natural organic ingredients and a delicious lemon scent. It really does smell like fresh-squeezed lemons, not like fake "lemony" products you may have tried in the past. I have one in the kitchen as well as the bathroom, and it gets rid of food smells on my hands when I am cooking too. Save even more resources by buying the refill size bottle when you run out. If you have kids that are washing up on their own, they will love it too!

Bath & Body • Dr. Bronner's Baby Mild Soap

Dr. Bronner's Baby Mild Liquid Soap



While I emphatically recommend the entire line of products for everyone in your home, I am especially fond of Dr. Bronner's Baby Mild Liquid Soap. I personally use it, and it is really great for gently bathing your baby all over. The company has been around for decades and has always been dedicated to healthy biodegradable products and is now certified Fair Trade. You should know that it is not "Tear-Free", but I use it in very small amounts and rinse using a wet washcloth.

I personally think it is better to use unscented products on yourself and on baby, especially in your first few months together, since bonding with your baby involves him or her being familiar with your "scent".
