Hi…I am a mom of 15 days old girl and I have been looking for the bath products for my daughter. I prefer products with Ph value 5.5 to 7 (neutral) as they make babies’ skin smooth and also protects their delicate skin. I have also been using coconut oil as it has the required Ph and it makes my babies skin glowy and moisturised.

So I would go in the favor.

Using a baby lotion which has pH 5.5, natural moisturizers, is free from irritants, will in development of acid mantle & will keep the delicate baby's skin hydrated. High Stress areas: For extremely dry or atopic skin, extra moisturisation is required.
