The main concernwith nanoparticles is that they are so tiny that they are absorbedinto the skin more than we want them (ideally sunscreen should remain on the surface of the skin). Once absorbed they might form unwanted complexes with proteins and they might promote the formation of evil free radicals. But do not panic, these are concerns under investigation. A 2009 review article about the safety of nanoparticles summarizes this, "to date, in-vivo and in-vitro studies have not demonstrated percutaneous penetration of nanosized particles in titanium dioxide and zinc oxide sunscreens". The English translation is, so far it looks like sunscreenswith nanoparticlesdo stay on the surface of the skin where they should be.

Our synthetic ingredient derived from lauric acid helps keep the ingredients in our baby lotion from separating and gives it a consistent texture. Lauric acid can also be found naturally in coconut oil. Sodium Hydroxide So long as a lotion is gentle and made with safe ingredients, you can apply it to your baby’s skin whenever and wherever the skin is dry. As well as moisturising, baby lotion needs to be gentle and not harsh when you use it as part of your baby's skincare routine.Just like you lather your skin with body lotion to fight dryness, your baby might experience dry skin, too. Having healthy skin is dependent on an adequate supply of a variety of key nutrients. If you’re nursing, this will come from your breastmilk, and if you’re formula-feeding, this should come from the formula.

Because baby skin is naturally more delicate, you’ll want to look for baby lotions that are formulated without harsh ingredients that can be rough or irritating to your child’s sensitive skin. Ingredients to avoid This ingredient works with other ingredients to moisturize baby's skin. Naturally derived from vegetable oil. Isopropyl Palmitate It’s normal for babies’ skin to go through some transitions as they adjust to life outside the womb in the first few days and weeks, so don’t be alarmed if you notice some acne or peeling early on. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it reflects or absorbs, Titanium Dioxide is a pretty awesome sunscreen agent for two main reasons: it gives a nice broad spectrum coverage and it's highly stable. Its protection is very good between 290 - 350 nm (UVB and UVA II range), and less goodat 350-400 nm (UVA I) range. Regular sized Titanium Dioxide also has a great safetyprofile, it's non-irritating and is pretty much free from any health concerns (like estrogenic effect worries with some chemical filters).This ingredient works with other ingredients to moisturize baby's skin. Naturally derived from coconut. Dimethicone Helps keep the ingredients in our baby lotion from separating and gives it a consistent texture. Naturally derived from palm oil. Xanthan Gum Infant skin problems, including dry skin, can be caused by unnecessary skin products. Many babies won’t need lotion. In fact, most babies’ skin generally doesn’t need much of anything other than an occasional sponge bath. It’s always good to have your baby’s skin assessed by a competent healthcare provider if there is a concern that does not resolve on its own,” Solomonian says. “Persistent dryness, redness, itching, or a visible rash should be assessed by your baby’s doctor to determine the next best steps.” What skin care ingredients should I stay away from? Since the beginning, our mission has been to create the gentlest baby products in the world. And now, we’re raising the bar even higher. When it comes to what’s best for your baby everything we make, everything we do and everything we stand for is as gentle as you want the world to be.

The same applies to a number of other baby lotions, including the Fred & Flo product and Superdrug's My Little Star, as well as Sainsbury's Little Ones which is advertised as being 'delicately fragranced'. Typically, these products are claimed to be hypoallergenic and 'formulated to minimise the risk of allergies', as well as free of known fragrance allergens. The saturated nature of coconut oil also means that it is a heavy-duty-oil ideal for dry skin types. A double-blind research confirmed that extra virgin coconut oilis as effective in treating xerosis (aka very dry skin) as mineral oil.Another study found that coconut oil is more effective than mineral oil in treatingmild to moderate atopic dermatitis (aka eczema) in children.She says: 'Hypoallergenic is not a guarantee that the product is allergy free, it means it has a lower risk of causing an allergy.'
