Face moisturizer

What are you mamas using on your LOs?  Now that it's cold and windy, plus we're running the heat a lot, DS' little cheeks are getting pretty dry.  I've been using my Aveeno moisturizer on his face because it's very gentle and he has pretty sensitive skin, but is there something that's better for babies?  We use J&J lotion on him after his bath, but I haven't used that on his face.  Any suggestions?

Re: Face moisturizer

  • We use her regular J&J vanilla oatmeal lotion on DD's face. Or coconut oil.

  • I use Aquaphor at night since it's a bit greasy.

  • @Excited30, thanks for the suggestion!  I have found that the Aveeno moisturizer helps some, but his cheeks are still pretty dry in a couple of spots.  I'll check this out.  I've used Aquaphor occasionally when it's been really windy, but I don't really like how greasy it is.. he winds up rubbing it all over the place too, so I don't know how much stays on his cheeks!

  • @Excited30, I haven't been able to find it!  I've looked at Target and CVS - where do you buy it?  I've continued using the Aveeno for now, but am still on the hunt!

    I've bought mine at London Drugs, I've seen it at Walmart (Walgreen's for those in the states), and I haven't looked at Target as we only just got one in our city.  I live in Canada  I bought mine in just the regular (not children's) body lotion area of the drug store.  It's not an uncommon brand.  The tube I bought for Dd is white with a dark blue cap and writing.  The larger bottle is the same coloring too.
    Thanks, I'll check Walgreens.  I have regular Vaseline lotion, but haven't found the extra strength anywhere.

  • @Excited30, is this it?  If so, I think it's called something different in the US, but at least I know what I'm looking for..
