This collection includes gentle cleansers, baby moisturisers, barrier creams, sensitive-skin washes and everyday care essentials suitable for newborns, infants and children.

What Are Child & Baby Skincare Products?

Child and baby skincare products are mild formulations designed to support developing skin barriers. Babies and young children have thinner, more sensitive skin that loses moisture quickly and is more vulnerable to irritation, dryness and environmental stress. These products help maintain hydration, support skin barrier function and reduce discomfort from conditions such as nappy rash, dry patches, eczema or cradle cap.

Why Is Baby & Child Skincare Important?

Young skin requires targeted care because it is still developing its natural defences. Gentle skincare products help:

• Protect against dryness, irritation and redness.
• Support a healthy skin barrier to reduce sensitivity.
• Comfort skin during common childhood conditions like eczema or nappy rash.
• Promote overall well-being through calming daily routines.

Baby skincare also works in harmony with soothing ranges such as Teething, especially when discomfort causes disrupted sleep or fussiness.

How to Use Baby & Child Skincare Products Safely

• Use fragrance-free or low-irritant products for babies with sensitive or eczema-prone skin.
• Apply moisturiser directly after bathing to lock in moisture.
• Use nappy creams at each change to reduce friction and protect delicate skin.
• Avoid adult skincare products, as they may be too strong for baby skin.
• Patch-test products if your child has a history of allergies.

Parents often combine skincare care with items from Nappy Care and Baby & Child Skin Conditions for a complete approach.

Statistics, Research & Expert Insight

Paediatric dermatology research shows baby skin is up to 30% thinner than adult skin, making it more prone to moisture loss and irritation. Maintaining a healthy skin barrier during infancy reduces the likelihood of dryness, eczema flares and environmental sensitivity. Experts emphasise the importance of regular moisturising, using mild cleansers and avoiding products with unnecessary additives.

Consistent skincare routines can also support the skin microbiome, which evolves significantly during infancy and early childhood. Products designed for young skin aim to hydrate, support this microbiome and maintain overall skin balance.
