AVEENO® Baby Presents: Taking Care of Your Baby’s Skin + GIVEAWAY!!

You all know I don't have babies. But you also know I love all Aveeno products! Aveeno has become my go to skin and hair care line. It is the best I have found. But I do know that many of my readers do have babies so I said yes to this giveaway just for you because that's how I roll.

I also know that many adults also use baby products because they are made for sensitive skin. Sometimes, baby products are the only products some adults can use. I use them. I like them. And if you do have little ones, Aveeno Baby products are something you need to check out.

Luckily for you, Dr. Alberto Cotton, Board Certified Hispanic Pediatrician for AVEENO® Baby, has some tips, steps and precautions you should take when caring for your babies:

CREATE A ROUTINE SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR BABY

* It’s important to note that baby skin is very sensitive; therefore, your baby’s skin care routine should not be the same as yours.
* Avoid long baths to prevent over-hydrating your baby’s skin and make sure to keep the water at a warm temperature.
* Dry your baby with a soft towel, preferably cotton. It will help absorb water and dry your baby well.
* Change the diaper frequently and apply a cream to protect your baby in that area.

CHOOSE PRODUCTS SPECIALLY FORMULATED FOR BABIES 

* Choose products that contain natural ingredients such as oat, which will help maintain the baby’s natural pH and the softness of the skin.
* Avoid products that contain artificial preservatives, strong fragrances, toxins and parabens.

PROTECT YOUR BABY FROM THE SUN
* When planning outdoor activities, keep your baby in the shade as much as possible to avoid the sun’s harmful rays, especially during peak
hours, between 10 am and 4 pm.
* Preferably, use cotton clothing, sunglasses and wide-brimmed hats.
* It is not recommended to use sunscreen if your baby is less than 6 months, due to their skin’s sensitive characteristics.
* For babies older than 6 months and toddlers, use a sunscreen of at least SPF 30 and labeled ‘broad spectrum.’ Before applying a new product, try it first on a small area of their back in case there is an allergic reaction.

These are great tips for babies or older children. With summer still around, these are tips to take to heart. Keep your babies safe from the sun with Aveeno Baby products. If you want to win a variety of Aveeno Baby products (sheep not included), then enter below on the Rafflecopter widget below.
