#asktheexpert my son has got extreme dry skin. please suggest some remedies

A. Please use a mild soap to bathe your child. The soap should have low pH value and should be hypoallergenic. It should be made of natural ingredients and should be fragrance free. Best options are Syndet bar, teddybar soap and Sebamed Baby Bathing Bar. Do not bathe the baby too much. Always use lukewarm water to bathe the baby. After bath, while the skin is still moist, apply a mild moisturiser which is unscented and made of natural ingredients on your child's skin atleast twice daily. Use Mamaearth or Moms Co Products. They are very good.
