A. Yes, personally I haven't tried Olive oil but I have heard that it darkens the skin, instead you can try Johnson's Baby Oil, it is enriched with Vitamin E which keeps baby's delicate skin moisturized throughout the day. Giving regular massage helps improved sleep quality in babies and it is also good for physical development.

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. No there is no such thing. Please massage baby with BabyHug coconut oil. Also use Sebamed soap to bathe the baby. Use a good brand moisturiser like BabyHug moisturiser or MamaEarth moisturiser for the baby. Also use a good brand sunscreen lotion for the baby. Please masaage baby hair with BabyHug coconut oil and leave overnight. Also use a sulphate free and paraben free shampoo like MamaEarth shampoo to wash baby hair. Thanks and take care
