Which oil for babies’ dry skin nourishes the epidermis deeply?
Even very young, babies can have dry skin due to the cold, because their skin is naturally thinner than that of adults, or because of peeling in the first weeks. That’s why Corine de Farme has formulated a protective oil, especially for them.
Why use a moisturizing oil on your baby’s skin?
Because newborns’ skin is very delicate, it deserves all the care that nature can offer. Especially that of a moisturizing oil capable of soothing overly dry skin.
Thanks to the organic olive and sunflower oils it contains, Corine de Farme’s protective oil for babies provides enhanced hydration as well as unique care for the skin barrier.
Soothing and multi-purpose, it is the perfect excuse to give your baby a massage, but can also be used on hair or sprayed into bath water. It really is an all-in-one oil!
The 4 best plant oils for babies’ dry skin
Jojoba oil is unique in its composition. Similar to the skin’s natural sebum, it helps regulate the skin’s moisture balance while protecting it.
Olive oil is rich in essential fatty acids, such as oleic acid, and natural antioxidants, for example, vitamin E. It is therefore perfectly suited for caring for babies’ skin.
Sunflower oil, light and non-greasy, is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid, which helps restore and strengthen the skin barrier. For sensitive or irritation-prone little skins, it is the best ally.
Finally, calendula oil is known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, particularly useful, for example, to relieve babies’ bottoms.
Of course, do as we do and always choose care oils for your newborn that are certified Organic or Ecocert. At Corine de Farme, we have always prioritized naturalness, as you know.
Pure or enriched: which oil for dry skin should you choose for your child?
“Pure” formulas contain only one ingredient, while “enriched” ones combine several active ingredients for the same purpose.
To be used properly and, above all, to offer full effectiveness, pure oils require careful selection and some knowledge, especially regarding the needs of the skin and the properties of the oil.
Corine de Farme’s protective oil, on the other hand, combines the benefits of several organic oils, ensuring optimal nutrition and enhanced protection for baby’s skin.
At the same time, its very minimal formula, perfectly compliant with the Clean Beauty standard, contains no controversial ingredients, is Ecocert certified, and minimizes the risk of allergies and irritations.
The ideal ritual to nourish and protect baby’s skin
In your opinion, when is the best time to apply a nourishing oil to your baby’s skin? Bath time, of course, you’re right! Because baby is relaxed, the room is warm, and they feel naturally clean and comfortable, take the opportunity to give them a little extra happiness with a massage.
After the bath, apply a few drops of oil to their not-quite-dry skin. This tip helps seal in moisturizing agents thanks to better penetration into the epidermis.
For the massage, use circular movements both to massage baby’s body (gently focusing on the tummy, for example, will help their digestion) and to gently work in the protective oil.
Finally, if during the day you notice a little redness, a dry area, or a slightly irritated spot, don’t hesitate to add a few extra drops for your baby’s well-being.
