Dry, chapped cheeks cures?

Love*for*Baby*J · February 2010

LO has extremely dry, chapped cheeks. They look as if they are wind burned. I have tried Vaseline, California Baby Calendula cream and Eucerin. Nothing seems to be working. Any other suggestions?

Aquaphor ointment

Try Aquaphor. It's sold where you can find lotions and ointments.

I use the Mustela cradle cap cream. I tried it since I had all that cream left and her cradle cap was gone. It works like a charm.

Aquaphor works great for our LO. It was recommended by our Pedi and my BFF that's a dermatologist.

Thank you for the suggestions! I think I will try aquaphor, since it is sold in most drugstores.

I have used both baby aquaphor and glaxal base (from the pharmacy) with success

I put Aveeno moisture cream and then aquaphor. The Aveeno will moisturize and the Aquaphor will seal it in.

Aquaphor- I actually bought the Target Up and Up brand and it works fine. It was in the baby section

Aquaphor is wonderful stuff! ?Make sure you put it on immediately after getting out of the bath though, it helps trap the moisture in the skin. ?It cleared up DS's dry skin! ?

My son has severly dry skin like you described. He recently had a cold and we put a humidifier in his room. It helped his skin sooo much!!

MY LO had the same exact problem. Aquaphor fixed it in less than 24 hours and we use it once daily now and it does the trick.

If you are using Eucerin, are you sure it isn't already Aquaphor? Aquaphor is made by Eucerin. Anyways, that has worked for everything with us so far.

I wasn't aware that Aquaphor is made by the same company as Eucerin. I will definetely check it out, though. Thank you.

My DS's cheeks were so bad that even Aquafor wasn't working. My ped suggested trying 1% hydrocortisone cream. That has really helped. We use it twice a day for 3 days, then take a couple days off and use the aquafor on those days.

We also use baby Aquaphor and love it. It works really fast too.
