My baby has really dry skin and I've been putting J&J baby lotion on him but I think it's irritating to his skin. It turns red and he cries when I put it on... so, any ideas on a good lotion for his sensitive skin?

if you think that your baby has a sensitive skin, do not make any experimentation by putting moisturizer or anything else. we should not put our baby's skin at risk because their skin are very delicate so you need to ask the pediatrician about his skin and what to do.

I experience the same with my baby and when I used cetaphil for bathing, the rashes were gone. I don't put lotion and powder yet for infants it may be harmful for their skin.

Yeah use a soap that has moisturizer fit for infants. Cetaphil is a good choice or even lactacid. Those are the most safe bath soap for infants' sensitive skin.

This happened to my son when he was an infant. I switched to what I washed and moisturize my face with. Its called CeraVe. Another idea is Cetaphil. I used it on myself but found the cerave was even better for my son sensative skin. Its sold at drug stores and walmart etc.

I had the same problem with my little one and I used Aveeno Baby, works wonders. Currently using Cetaphil liquid soap, it also works like magic.

You may want to consider a skin oil instead, but one that is natural such as jojoba.. or even avocado oil.. but you'd want to do a small skin patch test first. that way you can include it in a relaxing bedtime routine.. or not!

I've already tried lactacid but it still irritates my little one's skin. I highly recommend cetaphil liquid soap and cetaphil moisturizing lotion. It made he's skin so soft and got zero irritations. It's really awesome.

I use Aveeno products on my kid. He loves it and doesn't irritate his skin. Smells really great too.
