Best lotion for dry skin?

mlcbern · February 2013

I've recently changed my daughters bath wash and lotion from Johnson and Johnson to Burt's bees. The bath wash seems to b helping with her dry skin, but I've noticed thy her skin is rough feeling nd seem t be bumpy. I'm not sure if her skins just going through a change or if it could be from the bath wash or lotion.

Any suggestions?

I was wondering what lotions and bath wasg you all use?

thanks

I love Aveeno Baby Soothing Relief Moisture Cream. It works really well and isn't greasy. I have super sensitive skin and a lot of lotions irritate my skin so I had to find something that worked for me first because if it irritated my skin I sure couldn't put it on my baby. I even use it on my face.

We just started using the Soothing Creme by Epicensials because DD had dry patches all over, and it seems to really work. I put it on her every morning when I get her dressed.

We have been using Lubriderm recommended by our Pediatrician and the dry patches went away within a day

We use CJs Butter lotion and CJs Carcass cleaner. You can buy it from most cloth diaper retailers or from CJs Unique Boutique. It's especially effective on eczema. I use the New Mown Hay scent on LO, and the Oatmeal Milk & Honey on myself!

I put Mustela on DS first thing in the morning and after bathtime.

Glaxal Base cream. Must be the cream, not lotion. Creams absorb better into the skin.

Sometimes using plain vaseline works too.

This. I have eczema and Aveeno products are the only thing that haven't irritated my skin. DS has really sensitive skin too and they work so well for him

My baby and myself have very sensitive skin and eczema. I've been using some Jergen's Naturals lotion that I found on sale and thought I would try it out. It's wonderful! No scent, and it isn't greasy and absorbs very well. It doesn't irritate my skin or hers.

She doesn't seem to be allergic to the Johnson's sensitive bath wash (it's what they gave us at the hospital), but I do plan on switching to another brand once I use up the bottle I have, just so I can find something more moisturizing.
