Benefits of Moisturizers for Newborn
Infused with the goodness of shea butter and natural oils, CITTA’s moisturizing baby balm is thoughtfully crafted to cater to your baby’s sensitive skin needs. Unlike conventional water-based creams, CITTA’s moisturizing baby balm contains natural ingredients that are safe and gentle on the baby’s skin while effectively nourishing it from within. Here are its benefits:
- Long-Lasting Moisturization: With shea butter’s magic and the goodness of eight natural oils, CITTA’s moisturizing baby balm locks in moisture and keeps delicate baby skin deeply hydrated and nourished. And this is why it is one of the preferred choices in many newborn moisturizing balms.
- What’s In The Tub: At CITTA, we have handpicked the right ingredients and bottled them up for your little one’s delicate skin. Shea butter, almond oil, olive oil, and coconut oil are known for their soothing and moisturizing properties. All these potent ingredients work together to provide significant moisturization and combat dryness.
- Protection Against Environmental Stressors: The little ones’ skin is 20X thinner and more sensitive than that of adults, making it more susceptible to environmental stressors. Balm moisturizers with natural ingredients help enhance the skin’s barrier. Besides, the inclusion of natural emollients also helps keep skin issues at bay.
- Anti-Inflammatory: Most natural ingredients are rich in antioxidants, which offer anti-inflammatory benefits while reducing redness and irritation. Besides, they also help protect delicate skin against damage caused by free radicals.
Free from Harmful Chemicals: The Safety Advantage
Unlike conventional baby creams and moisturizers, a natural moisturizer for newborns is free of harmful chemicals and toxins like sulphates, parabens, and phthalates. These harmful toxins can cause allergic reactions and irritate sensitive skin.
Harmful additives like artificial colors and preservatives could potentially cause adverse reactions to the baby’s skin. Gently formulated, natural products minimize the risk of irritation and other skin conditions.
