A. Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema) in babies requires gentle skin care, intense moisturization, and avoiding triggers. Auto-Glow lotion and creams are NOT recommended because they may contain fragrances or harsh ingredients that can worsen eczema. Best Creams & Lotions for Baby Eczema (Face & Neck) ✅ Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Moisturizing Cream – Contains colloidal oatmeal, soothes itchiness. ✅ Cetaphil Baby Eczema Soothing Lotion – Fragrance-free, deeply moisturizing. ✅ Mustela Stelatopia Emollient Cream – Made for eczema-prone babies. ✅ Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Baume – Repairs and protects sensitive skin. ✅ Aquaphor Baby Healing Ointment – Thick and soothing for dry patches. How to Use Apply cream immediately after bathing (within 3 minutes) to lock in moisture. Use 2-3 times daily, especially on affected areas (face & neck). Avoid scented lotions or creams, as they can worsen irritation. Bathing Tips for Eczema-Prone Babies ✅ Use mild, fragrance-free soap – e.g., Cetaphil Baby Wash, Aveeno Baby Soothing Wash, Sebamed Baby Cleansing Bar. ✅ Lukewarm water baths (not hot) for 5-10 minutes only. ✅ Pat dry, don’t rub after bathing. ✅ Apply moisturizer immediately to seal hydration. Things to Avoid ❌ Fragranced lotions/soaps. ❌ Woolen or synthetic clothes (use soft cotton instead). ❌ Excess heat, sweating, and dust exposure. ❌ Foods that trigger flare-ups (dairy, eggs, or nuts may sometimes worsen eczema). When to See a Doctor? ⚠️ If eczema is severe, oozing, bleeding, or causing extreme discomfort. ⚠️ If baby is scratching too much, leading to infections.
