Do you really need to use shampoo and shower gel on your little child?
No, you don't need to.
The youngest children often don't need much cleansing of their hair or body. Water on the head and a little oil on the body goes a long way.
Good oils to add to the bath water or on a small washcloth are almond oil, jojoba oil, and sesame oil.
Almond oil is a mild oil that is moisturizing, soothes dry skin while providing nourishment. Jojoba oil is an all-round oil that is moisturizing, hypoallergenic, soothing and provides natural protection.
Sesame oil is a fragrance-free semi-rich oil that calms and softens
Weleda's Calendula Baby Oil is also very good for babies' and children's skin.It contains sesame oil and calendula that nourishes, protects and is ideal for daily skin care. If the child has gotten particularly dirty and you want to use a soap, there are mild soaps without unnecessary additives such as Malin i Ratan's soap Shea & Avocado without fragrance. It is mild, fragrance-free and enriched with shea butter and avocado oil that makes it extra skin-friendly. If you want a liquid soap, Odylique's Gentle Baby Wash is a good alternative for the little ones. It is very mild and contains soothing aloe vera, chamomile and olive oil. Vermont Soap also has a liquid shower soap for Baby & Children. It is creamy and suitable for babies and children of all ages. It is without added fragrance and contains calendula extract and shea butter.
