SBR: Body Lotion?

So after a process of elimination, it was determined that Charlie had an allergic reaction to the body lotion I was using (Suave with Cocoa Butter).

Poor little guy has a rash all over that's slowly getting better, but talk about making Mommy feel guilty Sad

Now I'm afraid to use anything else, thinking he might react to that as well. My skin is SO DRY!

Any recs as to a lotion that I can try that's not super expensive?

Re: SBR: Body Lotion?

  • Why not use baby lotion? California Baby has a sensitive line both babies and adults can use. Or try Burt's Bees. I personally don't like the CB line as much as the BB line but wanted to suggest it anyway. Also, if it's really bad, try Aquaphor? It's basically vasoline. The cocoa butter is probably too strong a fragrance for his skin to handle. 
    Baby, you've got the sort of eyes that tell me tales...

  • How about Aveeno?  Even Target's brand isnt that bad.

    Samma has eczema and that's what the pedi told us to use for HER dry skin, so if it's OK for babies with really dry and sensitive skin, then I would think it would work for you and not cause a reaction, no?

    This or Cetaphil.  They're the gentlest.

  • I was going to suggest Aveeno too. Its gentle and doesnt have fragrance in it.

    Also Tonia's suggestion of baby oil is good. I know that they make a Baby Oil Gel that my co-worker SWEARS by.
