Q: Why is this not listed as Target Clean, Paraben free, and Pthalate free?
submitted by leopardmama - 4 months ago
A: My baby's lips are very dry and itchy. He likes to lick his lips and put the ointment in his mouth. Can he eat it? Is there any health problem?
submitted bycan eat it - 3 months agoA: Hello, Thanks for reaching out. You may check at the back of the tube it says " ph balanced, non greasy, free of fragrance , parabens ans phthalates".

Q: I have dry, very sensitive skin.. as an adult could I use this on my face without it clogging my pores or causing breakouts?
submitted by Knichole - 11 months ago
A: The brand’s previous answer to your question seems a little silly. If I can put it on my baby’s face, it would be fine for an adult to use it. I put some on my face, and I personally didn’t have any problems (I also have relatively sensitive skin).
submitted byC Fletch - 24 days agoA: The product is not recommended to use by an adult since this is only for newborns until 6 months.

A newborn must-have!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use this balm for EVERYTHING. It’s definitely a newborn must-have and a diaper caddy staple! The ingredients are great, and I love that it’s fragrance free. The scent isn’t overpowering at all, just a simple balm that is effective and can be used on baby’s skin, bottom, face, etc. The texture is a little gritty, but expected with a balm.

Bath time necessity
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This a unscented balm, glides on just like Vaseline. Perfect for after bath time to lock in moisture. A little goes such a long way, this is truly a frequent buy for my little one. It last for so long.

Insanely hydrating
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This moisturizer is incredibly rich and hydrating. A little tiny bit goes an incredibly long way because of how viscous and emollient this cream is. It’s fragrance-free and insanely gentle - which is necessary on sensitive, delicate skin! I gave four stars instead of five because, as hydrating and gentle as this is, it literally never sinks in. It is almost like a thick petroleum that just sits above the skin without ever sinking in. This makes it awful for daytime use, but fantastic for locking in moisture at night.

Good moisturizer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is moisturizing and did not irritate my babies skin. I tried many other natural/organic moisturizers and this one works the best. I like that it has no fragrance it isn’t too oily or sticky. I use some on myself also.

A must have!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this Aveeno Baby Healthy Start Newborn Balm. It’s super gentle and safe to use from day one, which gave me peace of mind as a mom. The texture is creamy but not greasy and it absorbs well leaving my son’s skin soft and nourished. I love that it’s fragrance free and hypoallergenic. The prebiotic oat formula really helps keep dryness away and I noticed a difference in how smooth and healthy his skin feels. The packaging is also convenient and easy to use. Definitely a must have for new moms!

Aveeno, choose better ingredients
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I appreciate the quantity of product and thickness of the lotion. It’s very hydrating. But I would be happier if Aveeno chose cleaner ingredients for their products especially for newborns. Fragrance free isn’t enough for baby’s delicate skin. Aveeno you can do better!

Nice overall body moisturizer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The solution for newborn babies is great! Pediatrician dermatologist recommended was not greasy and I love that his fragrance free. The bottle is a good size to keep at home or to carry with you.

Get this now before baby arrives!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I had this since day one!!! Babies have such dry peeling skin when they adjust to the outside world, and after two kids I can say that this is the best product to combat that! It’s safe for their sensitive skin but protects and locks in that much needed moisture. It’s hydrating but also protective so you don’t need multiple products and it’s not messy like straight petroleum jelly.

Great for babies
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great for babies. It has a little bit of the greasiness, which is great for locking in the moisture. I think it would be good for dry skin. It is unscented.

better than aquaphor and vaseline
I got a sample of this from peds office and used it on a bad dry patch I've had for weeks. The patch started to heal and look like normal skin after 3 applications total and only 2 days. I highly recommend.
