- Buy soaps and shampoos that are very gentle yet effective in cleaning your baby's skin and hair. They should be mildly scented or unscented with neutral pH.
- Petroleum jelly moisturizes your baby's skin and prevents chafing. It also guards against diaper rash.
- Baby colognes and scents should be used on your baby sparingly. Scents, no matter how mild, may trigger an allergic reaction.
- Don't shake out the powder from its container directly on your baby's skin. Instead put a small amount on your palm and then apply it. Be careful when using powder to make sure you baby does not inhale it.
- Products on newborns and older babies are supposed to be baby friendly. Theses have to be made from non-allergenic and nontoxic materials or substances.
