i think pH 5.5 product won't suit for baby's skin . it may harden the baby skin or leads to some allergic reaction. so we need to think before use any pH5.5 on baby skins.

Babies are born with a skin pH value of 7. The acid mantle which protects the baby's delicate skin takes upto 3 months to develop, the pH of the skin then becomes 5.5. pH neutral products are not a friend of your baby's skin. Any pH value other than 5.5 can severely damage sensitive skin. Skin with a higher pH has been related to increased rates of bad bacteria, which can cause infection and disease and longer healing time for skin ailments.
