I remember growing up, my sister always used to get the worst eczema and my mum would try and find different ways to soothe it but nothing ever really worked.
My sister as an adult today still gets eczema every now and then and I know it frustrates her because it’s itchy, it makes her skin look rashy and it’s hard to find her relief.
I have been pretty lucky with my kids so far with their skin. Finn never really got any rashes, whether it was nappy rash or eczema and now with Leo he very rarely has a nappy rash either.
However, he has started developed a rash around his face which can spread quite a lot at times and I could only imagine it would be irritating him as well (although he can’t tell me!). At first we thought it may have been a reaction to something but then we thought it was most likely due to all of his drool from teething! He drools constantly at the moment while cutting his teeth and his poor little face is just breaking out from it.
As you will know by now, I only like to use products that are as natural as possible, especially on my children. When I got the opportunity to try out Itchy Baby Co knowing it was made with natural ingredients, I was of course excited to try it. The products arrived at the perfect time when Leo’s face was covered in rash so I put them to good use immediately.
Itchy Baby Co has been developed by Australian mums with a pharmaceutical background. The main ingredient used is colloidal oatmeal which has been used for many years as a anti-inflammatory and antioxidant for the skin. The products also contain other natural soothing ingredients including goats milk, bees wax, coconut and shea butter.
We started with the natural bath soak for Leo’s night-time bath putting a few scoops in to the water and soaking him in it for about 10 minutes. After his bath we moisturised him with the natural oatmeal moisturiser and then finished with the natural oatmeal face-mask. The facemask was a light ointment that I just left on his face for a few minutes without rubbing in an then gently patted off with a warm cloth.
The next day, I kid you not, his face rash had basically disappeared. I was super impressed. It has returned since then from his drool but I am continuing to apply it with his bath and it is helping him a lot. The moisturiser and bath soak has also cleared any slight amount of redness he had on his nappy area and his skin is as soft as a babies bum!
This product isn’t just for kids either and adults can use them with the same results. I will be getting my sister to try out the moisturiser on her eczema and will let you know the results. So, if your little one is suffering from eczema or any form of rash, give these products a try and see if they work for you. I know you can spend tonnes of money on different products hoping to find some relief so I truly hope Itchy Baby Co will be your last purchase and you’ll never look back! They are also really affordable, which makes them perfect for the everyday mum.
Itchy Baby Co also do free shipping Australia wide and to New Zealand for orders over $50, which is so awesome!
