Baby skincare products should be as safe as possible. Choose hypoallergenic items labeled “0+” with minimal ingredients. For daily care, a soap-free wash gel, diaper cream, and alcohol-free wipes are enough. Oils, powders, and moisturizers aren’t needed unless prescribed by a doctor. Always do a patch test on the baby’s wrist before first use. The less cosmetics — the safer for the baby’s skin.
