Your wee one\u2019s skin is so soft, smooth and silky, that you just can\u2019t help but kiss those chubby little cheeks, nibble on those tiny fingers, and play This Little Piggy with those adorable toes!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In order to keep that delicate newborn skin soft, you need to care for and protect it with a skin care routine. But with all the products, studies and opinions out there, skin care can seem complicated\u2014so we\u2019ve got some basic, easy-to-follow tips to give you the confidence and knowledge to keep your babe\u2019s skin as soft as the day they were born. With these baby skin care basics, you can rest assured that you\u2019re doing the right things for your baby\u2019s health and skin, keeping those cheeks soft and kissable for years to come!<\/p>\n

Step #1: Cleanse<\/h5>\n

We know that babies are not really dirty<\/em>, but you still want to do regular, night time baths. Not only is this calming for both you and baby, but you also wash away oils and dry skin that can lead to unhappy skin.<\/p>\n

Using warm water in most areas is sufficient, but you can add a mild, tear-free cleanser like Weleda Baby 2 in 1 Gentle Shampoo + Body Wash<\/a> for the areas that need it such as heads, bums and chubby skin folds. The sweet almond oil absorbs easily so keeps the moisture in baby\u2019s hair and skin, leaving them feeling oh-so smooth. And the delicate fragrance turns ordinary bath time into a full-body pampering.<\/p>\n

Step #2: Moisturize<\/h5>\n

Moisturize your wee one\u2019s regularly to keep their skin silky soft.<\/p>\n
