Advice on baby bath products!! Which brand is the best?

ammini · October 2014

Have heard mixed reviews abt Johnson & Johnson products..which is the most safe and commonly used bath products for babies ?

michelle142 · October 2014

You'll likely get mixed reviews on every baby bath product.

J&J is still the most popular, despite the bad things you hear.

That said, we really loved California Baby products.

I like Earth Mama Angel Baby and Babyganics. My babies are special snowflakes so I like to use organic stuff when I can. Except for when Evie sees the Disney princess shampoo in the grocery store aisle and threatens a fit if we don't buy it- then I happily buy the chemical shampoo to keep my kid happy.

Thank you

We had to use nothing but aveeno due to DS sensitive skin. I suggest not stocking up, or you might get stuck with products you can't use. We had a ton of J&J from our baby shower that got given away.

We tried a lot of different things, but Shea Moisture Baby ended up being our favorite!

Trick question... "Best" is in the opinion of the consumer

Kayla*Marie · October 2014

We got a bunch of J&J as gifts and there wasn't anything wrong with it for us... we still use it and I love the smell. But we did invest in Baby Aquaphor lotion that did wonders for DD's dry skin.

I agree with Jaz. A lot of folks swear by Aveeno, but it actually irritated DD's skin and the lotions gave her a rash. My personal favorite is the yellow Baby Magic. It's a little drying in the winter time when DD's skin is at its worst, but it works well for us and smells great.

I love Burt's Bees products. We use the baby wash/shampoo and it is great. The lotion is also really soothing in my opinion. I also like to use it on my hands when they get dried out from washing them so much!

kerrigrooves · October 2014

we used Aveeno and Babyganics 2 n 1 foam - still using the 2 n 1 foam and love it.

@jaztastic can't afford baby soap after buying the dolce and gabbana high chair so don't listen to her.

pick whatever soap for the kid that you like.

LMAO... pretty much. I planned to use the equate baby products at Walmart. Looks like the real stuff to me.

jennjilljo · October 2014

I like J&J now but liked using babyganics and aveeno when DS was younger.

AnotherSun · October 2014

Shea Moisture Baby is my favorite. It smells really good and is really gentle.

Sahara6971 · October 2014

I like California Baby, Mustela, Babyganics and some home made/local products.

Love me some Baby Magic! The pink original scented lotion just smells like babies to me!

maryxc1 · October 2014

DS did not do well with J&J so we ended up giving it all away too.

We use the following:
- shampoo is Selson Blue Naturals because at two he still gets cradle cap when I stop using it
- soap is most anything sensitive or natural
- lotion is Vani Cream Lite. The pediatrician recommended it for a rash he had as an infant and I liked it so I kept using it

I got a ton of J and J at baby showers and it worked fine until about a month ago when DD broke out with some nasty eczema all of a sudden. Now we have to use Aveeno and I have all this J&J stuff. If this baby can't use it I will have to give it away.

CdnFarmGirl08 · October 2014

My pedi said to stay away from Johnson and Johnson for my son. It really irritated his eczema. She said to stick with aveeno so that's what I'll do for baby too.

krysmill · October 2014

I use the Honest Co. on me and am planning on using it on the baby. That's my plan but we will see how baby likes it!

dontgiveupnomatterwhat · October 2014

Burt's Bees or Arbonne Baby!

Dani_Love · October 2014

Aveeno for us, J&J didn't work. Burt's Bees is also good

AngieAn · October 2014

I used J&J and the girls were fine with it.

DS breaks out pretty badly from J&J. We use Aveeno baby wash with Aquaphor lotion and have never had an issue.

ems0523 · October 2014

When DS was a baby we used the Aveeno naturals. Now we use Baby Magic which i love, it reminds me of my grandma!

dreemkin84 · October 2014

Burt's bees and j&j here.

psychobutthead · October 2014

With DD I used J&J the kind that is shea butter just because it smelled so good and I liked how it made her skin moisturized. At that time 7 years ago aveeno didn't have a baby line and neither did burts bees. Living in a small town my only choices where J&J or the knock of J&J that walmart sold and the family dollar.

But now they have apply honey scent so I'd really like to try that one but this LO will get J&J unless he has issues with it.

cls78 · October 2014

My babies will get whatever is on sale or generic! lol. I use Equate and Up and Up products all the time.

IDK if its just me but I prefer up and up over equate. The up and up seems to be a better quality over all in everything I've tried of it.

jadempyre1 · October 2014

Burts bees and babyganics are my favorite. Worth every penny in my opinion. I try to avoid the chemicals as much as possible. And I love the smell of Burts bees shampoo/wash!

laurajj031 · October 2014

I make my own shower gel. It is easy, cheaper and you can customize what you want. I have very sensitive skin like breaking out in hives when my skin touches certain dyes or chemicals and while I do check bottles and labels I still get surprised sometimes if anyone wants to try it here is the soap recipe it's below - if you buy everything at once definitely costs more than a bottle of shower gel but it makes a lot of batches. 2c liquid glycerin, 1c distilled water, 3/4 tsp salt, 1tbsp jojoba oil, 25-30 drops of essential oil (I love tea tree and mint) pop it into a bottle shake and you're done. I plan on trying out homemade wipes too. Btw I work full time and I'm the laziest person alive - don't judge.
