Advantages: mild enough for babies

Disadvantages: use with caution if your baby has allergies or asthma

Scarlett was initially a baby who was very wary of having a bath, especially when very little. However, she know loves it and will splash around like mad and soak us if given the chance!

We use Johnsons baby bedtime bath in her baths. It is packaged in a purpley pink bottle with the johnsons logo on the front and a little picture of a baby lying on a pillow in night night land. Its called bedtime bath, because according to the johnsons website www.johnsonsbaby.com its ingredients are supposed to relax babies and toddlers before bed. Apparently it contains lavender and chamomile and releases lovely aromas in a warm bath to relax baby. To be honest I wouldn’t say that it relaxes Scarlett as she sees water and wants to splash, but it may well work for some babies.

It has a lovely, gentle smell to it which reminds me a bit of baby talc.When added to the bath it gives of an inoffensive aroma, which is good as you really don’t want baby bubble bath that pongs.After being bathed Scarlett smells sweet and a bit of lavender. A 300ml bottle lasts quite a while as a smidgen of bubble bath is quite effective.

This bath lotion can be used for grown ups to, because its formulated to be appropriate for delicate baby skin it seems the ideal thing for adults with sensitive skin. According to the blurb on the bottle, it has clinical proven mildness that is mild enough for newborn babies.

According to the website the no more tears formula is the same as water for babies eyes. I find this a bit hard to believe, but it is mild stuff and shouldn’t hurt Scarlett’s eyes if we accidentally get some in them.

A bit of a strange thing is that on the website it is recommended that you shouldn’t use without consulting a doctor if your child has asthma, allergies or a family history of either. There is no mention of this on the bottle, which I think there should be if its on the website.

This costs about £3.00 for a 300ml bottle and you can buy it from major supermarkets and boots.
