Understanding Baby Eczema

As the season starts to change, so will your baby’s skin. It’s important to treat, prevent, and relieve baby’s irritation as soon as it appears. According to National Eczema, it’s difficult to pinpoint the exact reason why babies develop eczema, but it’s a combination of both genetics and baby’s environment.

Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, is a skin condition that can cause dryness, itching, redness, and irritation. Babies can develop eczema around the face, cheeks, skin, forehead, and even scalp. Babies have extra sensitive skin, so it’s essential to use products that help maintain their skin’s moisture barrier without irritating it further.

Here at Noodle & Boo, we understand how important it is to provide gentle yet effective solutions that help manage eczema flare-ups and soothe sensitive skin. Our Ultimate Ointment and Fragrance-Free Collection are designed specifically to provide relief from eczema while nourishing your baby’s skin from head to toe.

Ultimate Ointment: For Eczema and Chapped Skin

Our Ultimate Ointment helps treat eczema flare-ups and soothes chapped or chafed skin. The Ultimate Ointment has been awarded the Seal of Acceptance by the National Eczema Association for its ability to help provide relief for even the most sensitive skin.

Here’s why parents love using Ultimate Ointment for their little ones:

• Zinc Oxide: The active ingredient creates a moisture-repellent barrier between the skin and sources of irritation, enhancing the natural healing process.
• Natural Anti-inflammatories: Infused with bisabolol and allantoin, these powerful ingredients help reduce redness and inflammation, which helps provide immediate relief from discomfort.
• Steroid- and fragrance-free: Our gentle, pediatrician-tested and dermatologist-tested formula is free of parabens, preservatives, phthalates, and dyes which could irritate sensitive or eczema-prone skin.

Ways to Use Ultimate Ointment

For irritated baby bottoms, we recommend using Fragrance Free Ultimate Baby Cleansing Cloths to soothe and hydrate baby’s skin. Apply a thick layer of Ultimate Ointment on dry, clean skin after each diaper change.

For cradle cap, apply a thick layer of ointment on clean, dry scalp, and cover with an all-cotton cap. Reapply twice daily, covering babe’s head with his or her cap after each application. During bath time, we recommend shampooing with Newborn 2-in-1, and gently comb out dry skin.
