It is nothing new to hear for the parents - the diaper area can be troublesome. As the baby grows, they become naturally more curious and active, same for their range of movements which broadens daily. While it is solely good news for the little human’s development, every kick and other newly - discovered maneuver only adds to the skin irritation under the nappy. 

Irritation in the nappy area leads to diaper rashes when your baby: 

• Sleeps in with damp, wet, or poopy diapers.
• Has  sensitive skin that rubs off too much against the diaper surface.
• The baby gets older, and diapers turn tighter.
• Has a runny day (diarrhoea).

Furthermore, the problem might get worse if the diaper is already soaked to a deeper degree - then it serves as a perfectly warm and damp  environment for bacteria and yeasts to barge in. 

Here are a few most common ways to hold off diaper rash in the nappy area:

• Change diapers frequently
  Feel and check your baby's diaper as often as you can, and change as soon as it dampens or gets wet.
  
  
• Pat, not rub
  While cleaning the nappy area during diaper changes, make sure that you pat the area clean and dry, rather than rubbing. A baby’s skin is highly sensitive, and rubbing could result in further irritation in the nappy area.
  
  
• Opt for wipes
  It is recommended to use organic, mild wipes that do not contain any fragrances or alcohol during cleansing. This helps in the prevention of diaper rash that may otherwise arise due to skin’s reaction to synthetic fragrances.
  
  
• Use a mild cleanser
  Whether it is to wipe off poop, or refresh the baby bum after every diaper change, use mild cleansers that contain only natural ingredients and plain water. The one thing that is needed in such a scenario is an effective, multi - tasking yet gentle solution which we are happy to introduce. Our Soothe & Refresh Baby Bottom Wash provides soothing relief for the baby’s delicate skin while keeping it clean and fresh at the same time during every diaper change.
  
  

A mild, all-natural solution for diaper rash prevention.

Since the baby’s skin is thin and absorbs cosmetics more easily, it is extremely important in baby skin care to use only gentle, clean and natural ingredients - that is what we have kept in mind when formulating Soothe & Refresh Baby Bottom Wash. We have eliminated any harmful and detrimental substances like SLS, PEGs, phthalates, phosphates, fragrances or retinyl palmitate and filled the formula with carefully chosen plant based bioactive ingredients including Aloe Barbadensis leaf juice, Calendula Officinalis and Chamomilla Recutita flower extracts, Neem Leaf extracts as well as Alpaflor® Edelweiss.

• Aloe Leaf Juice
  It is the key ingredient of our wash for a reason - it is mild yet powerful. Its main health - giving substance acemannan is known to have extraordinary anti - inflammatory properties. It quickly decreases the production of inflammation markers, instantly bringing relief to irritated, inflamed skin.
  
  
  
  
  
  Moreover, aloe teems with beneficial vitamins and minerals which happen to be water and glycosaminoglycans based. Vitamins A and B are responsible for healthy skin cell differentiation, vitamin C promotes sufficient collagen production while vitamin E alleviates the nagging symptoms of burning, stinging and redness. Glycosoaminoglycans bind water, caring for the skin’s appropriate hydration.

• Chamomile, Calendula and Neem Leaf
  It only enhance the soothing and anti - irritation features of Aloe. It has been proven in multiple studies that Chamomile & neem Leaf are extremely effective in mitigating the symptoms of inflammatory skin conditions like eczema, atopic dermatitis, burns, psoriasis and more.
  
  
  
  
  
  They stop and prevent inflammation, induce the skin’s natural healing processes and help rebuild the skin’s protective lipid coat hence resolve troublesome feelings of dryness, tension and burning that babies are especially prone to.
  
  
  
  
  
  Additionally, the mentioned ingredients possess significant anti - micriobial properties. They are particularly active against Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans - two most common pathogens which cause so - called diaper rash.
  
  
• Alpaflor® Edelweiss
  It is Leontopodium alpinum ‘Helvetia’ extract, a flower grown sustainably and organically containing leontopodic acid in abundance. It’s a strong antioxidant & exhibits DNA protection properties.
  
  
  
  This ingredient works by stimulating key proteins responsible for providing maximum protection, moisturization of the skin & preserving skin’s natural balance with reducing skin sensitivity. Due to its DNA protection properties, it enhances skin’s resistance to environmental pollutants by supporting skin’s protective barrier. It is a natural & organic bioactive, preservative free and ECOCERT, NATRUE & COSMOS organic certified ingredient.
