Advantages: The smell, The feel , The cost

Disadvantages: Lots of dust in the bathroom!

I love the smell of babies! Before I go any further into my opinion I’d better qualify that comment. What I mean is I love that lovely clean smell when they’ve just been bathed, powdered and changed, not the ‘before’ smell, which I won’t detail in case you’re getting ready to eat!

So, taking this into account, it isn’t difficult to see why I love to use Johnsons Baby Powder.

I use talcum powder after bathing to make sure that all my nooks and crannies are nice and dry – I’m not going to go into too much detail about that here either – you’ll have to use your imagination!

Seriously one thing I do find is that, being a big girl, I sometimes get a heat rash under my bust and that talcum powder helps to keep me dry and thus alleviate the problem.

All you have to do is sprinkle some on your hands and smooth it onto your skin for a ‘friction free layer to reduce rubbing and chafing’.

I have tried other, perfumed, talcum powders but find that they do tend to irritate me so Johnsons Baby Powder is ideal. It does the job and it smells heavenly!

Obviously it is perfect to use on your baby and is even mild enough for new born babies. It will help to keep baby’s nether regions dry and help to reduce the instances of nappy rash.

Johnsons Baby Powder is made by Johnson and Johnson of Maidenhead and is part of a whole range of products traditionally used for all your baby’s needs, but as it says on the carton ‘Perfect for Baby – Perfect for You’.

It comes in 200g and 400g sizes and the cost, as with all the Johnsons products is always very slightly higher than the equivalent ‘own brand product, but then you do get the Johnsons quality for your money!

I always find that the talcum powder together with one or two of the other items in the range make for a nice present for the new baby or f
or mom to be. I do like practical presents you see.

The only real problem that I find is the layer of talcum powder that accumulates on everything in the bathroom necessitating regular cleaning – bother! – I knew there’d be a catch!
