An adult's skin is quite thick and can therefore withstand a lot. But for baby skin this is different. Your little one's skin will feel silky soft, but is still vulnerable. Therefore, think carefully about which care products you use for your baby. We would like to list all the benefits of 100% natural baby care for you.
What is 100% natural baby care?
Although you might expect baby products to only contain substances that are good for your little one, this is not always the case. Because even products from the better-known (non-natural) baby brands often contain microplastics. You can check which products have this on the Beat The Microbead. For example, consider silicone in baby shampoo to make your child's hair softer and anti-tangle. But also artificial additives such as SLS/SLES for more thorough cleaning and to make soap foam or parabens to extend the shelf life of products. In addition, perfume is often added for a nice scent.
And although these additives have an effective effect, they are also often aggressive for the skin. This can quickly cause sensitive baby skin to become irritated and dehydrated. That risk is significantly reduced with natural baby care. For these products, only ingredients that come directly from nature are chosen. Think of vegetable oils, shea butter and coconut oil. Due to the right compositions, these products are just as effective as regular baby products, but in a gentle way. Curious about the benefits of natural carefor your baby? We list them for you below.
