Doesnt fix the problem but puts a patch on it
It helps the scalp look less dry but it doesn’t fix the problem

Magic
I’ve used this on all 3 of my babies and it works like magic. My boys have eczema and sensitive skin as well as tight coily curls. This product is effective and non-irritating and left their baby coils soft and silky and crust-free. I love it.

Works!
Works! I used this on my baby who had pretty severe cradle cap. I put it on her head before bedtime and the next morning I washed her scalp and all of the flakes came off very easily. The only thing I didn’t love was the smell of the lotion. Other than that, it’s great!

Magical
It really works!!!! I tried a lot of stuff , such as olive oil, aquaphor and etc…. Nothing helped. My baby had a worse cradle cap ever ! It looked like a desert …. But this cream with shampoo worked! And I want to notice, that the shampoo without this cream does not work! Even maybe works only cream…

Did not work for our girl sadly
This honestly did not help my baby girls cradle cap. Was pretty disappointed but maybe she just has a tougher case.

It does work! :)
My daughter’s had cradle cap ever since she was born. The pediatrician recommended to do nothing so it would go away on its own in a matter of months. She just turned 6 months and l finally decided to try something since it’s been too long of this ugly thing on her head. I applied this cream for ONE NIGHT and the foam shampoo in the next morning and voilaaaa! 95% of it is gone! With just one application! I swear. I only write reviews when a product really solves my issues so this way l can help out others in the same situation l was in so… go ahead and buy it. It does work! :) Thank you so much, Mustela! Should’ve bought this waaaay sooner.

Not neccessary, IMO
I wasn’t impressed with this product. Wish I had returned it because it wasn’t cheap. I feel like it made my son’s scalp WORSE! I had much better luck with massaging in some natural apricot oil after each bath.

Hi, Thanks for your review! We are so sorry the Cradle Cap Cream did not work for your child. The skin is highly individual. So we understand that what may work for one person may not work for another. Please consult with your child's doctor regarding other treatment.

Love it
I got this fot my grandsons he is 4 months old and the cradle crap had begun. This was easy to use. And helped break down the cradle crap to make it much easier to come off. We used it 3 times and it seems to have taken it all away. Would definitely buy more if these products.

This product is amazing!
My 4 year old still has the remains of some cradle cap on her scalp from when she was a baby. With long haired babies, it's a challenge to try to get rid of it all when they're young. I've tried multiple cradle cap products in the past, but they either didn't work well or they smelled very bad. The Mustela Cradle Cap Cream is an amazing product. It's not thick, and it applies easily onto the scalp, and it's basically odorless. You just rub it in and leave it overnight. It does make the hair a little oily looking the next day, but not near as bad as some products I've used. By the third application I saw a major difference on her scalp and noticed the cradle cap was breaking down and going away. It was amazing! Wish I'd had this for all my kids! I received this for free for my honest opinion.

Works great
My 1 month old had cradle cap. I’ve been using this cream for about a week and a half and I can say that it is almost completely cleared up. This cream is light, but moisture gets. It’s gentle and I haven’t had anything but a good e Perrin a with this. Definitely recommend.

Works as Intended!
This cradle cap cream does as it says! It's important to read the directions that say it needs to be applied before bed and rinsed in the morning. I didn't read the directions at first and just rubbed it in and was confused why it wasn't working. Once I actually read the directions and used as directed, it fully eliminated my baby's cadle cap in one use! My only gripe is that I wish the bottle were smaller, as I don't foresee having to use it again because the cradle crap is gone. It would be nice if the bottle just had enough for a few uses.
