Natural Baby Soap For Sensitive Skin

Many people delay washing their baby's skin with soap in the first 4-6 weeks, as it is sensitive and soft. After this period, a newborn’s umbilical cord should have fallen off, or a baby boy’s circumcision should have healed. If you don't want to wait that long, it's important to use a fragrance-free baby soap during bath time and unscented natural moisturizers after your baby’s bath.

In the beginning, baby skin does not require frequent washing. We start our babies with the Castile soap until they are about two months old. Then we switch them to the Purity soap until they are six months old. Both of these goat milk soaps are unscented, non-toxic, natural, and contain moisturizing ingredients.

Babies have soft, delicate skin that requires the right products. For babies with sensitive skin, it’s even more imperative that you consider your baby soap carefully. For a baby with sensitive skin, you want to choose a soap that hydrates and protects the skin but also does not cause any allergies, irritations, or infections.

Our Goat Milk Stuff Soaps are all-natural and ideal for those with sensitive skin - even those with eczema and psoriasis. The Castile soap is made with organic extra virgin olive oil, making it incredibly gentle on the skin and ideal for newborns. As your baby grows, you will be able to switch to the Purity soap bar, which is made using natural ingredients. This means that it’s non-toxic and non-fragrant, so it will not cause any skin irritations for your baby.

A newborn baby, till the age of 12 months, can be given a full bath around 2-3 times a week. If they enjoy baths, you can bathe them once a day, but more than this may dry their skin out.

It's important to keep the water lukewarm, as neither hot nor cold water is comfortable for babies. Also, on days you don’t bathe the baby, gently clean their face, diaper area, and between any folds of skin.

This depends on your baby’s skin. Some babies should be moisturized after bathing to help prevent dryness and irritation. Other babies will need nothing on their skin after being cleaned with goat milk soap.

If you do decide to moisturize your baby, keep in mind that their skin is delicate and can be easily irritated by exposure to soaps and detergents. Our gentle, fragrance-free lotion is ideal for babies, but it is still important to test it on a small patch of skin first to check for any potential allergic reactions. It's also important to remember that babies do not need to be lotioned all over their bodies, just on the areas that tend to be dry, like the face, hands, feet, and legs.

Absolutely! The natural fat molecules in goat milk help moisturize and soothe the skin, while the milk's lactic acid can help gently exfoliate and remove dead skin cells.

Goat milk soap is also less likely to cause allergic reactions than other types of soap, which can be beneficial for babies with sensitive skin. However, it's still essential to test the soap on a small area of skin before using it all over the baby's body.
