A. For dry skin, You can choose a product which contains good moisturising ingredients like coconut oil or glycerin or oatmeal. Coconut oil is the best natural moisturiser. Glycerine helps to acquire moisture from the air into the skin's outer layer. Oatmeal has the quality of retaining the skin's moisture and protect against dryness, rashes or severe irritation or itching. Regarding complexion, Baby's complexion or color totally depends on the genes. We cannot change it. Also the real skin color of the baby will be visible after six months. However you can try some home remedies. Give her oil massage before bathing. Use a mixture of gram flour(home made) and turmeric powder (pure one) instead of soap while bathing. But before using it for her full body do a patch test for one of two days by applying in one small area of her body and see if there is any allergic reaction
