Advantages: Great at treating dry skin on Mum and Baby.

Disadvantages: Creates an oil slick in your bathroom.

I was bought a very large bottle of this when my daughter was born and found it to be great.

When she was a few weeks old she got quite dry skin in her, but hated been naked after her bat so instead of trying to rub moisturiser over a screaming baby I put a few drops in her bath and it cleared it up great.

I have also been using it on me, you rub it ib before you towel dry and it locks moisture into your skin. As I have dry skin this is great - it is faster than smothering myself in body moisturiser so when my daughter starts whinging when I have a shower I can get to her more quickly as it takes less time to get dried and moisturised.

The only downside is that it tends to leave the bath a bit of an oil slick which means regular cleaning, not so good when you also have a baby to look after! So I only use it when her skin is bad or I am in a rush.

Summary: Great for occasional use.
