A newborn baby’s skin has one of the most amazing smells you’ll ever inhale. Especially as a mother when you first hold that precious bundle for the first time. Looking after their skin has always been a priority for me and I like to use non scented and recommended brands. One I came across with my little ones was Bennetts for Babies.
It was a new brand for me at the time, however, Bennetts for Babies was formed over 50 years ago by a father and independent pharmacist, Basil Bennett. He went on to become famous for his baby care products, compounded on demand in his very own pharmacy. His products effectively treat dry skin, eczema, and help to prevent and heal nappy rash, Bennett’s has been a firm favourite with parents for years.
The full range includes baby bum crème, healing and preventing that pesky nappy rash. Nipple cream which you don’t have to wash off before breast feeding. A wonderful aqueous cream, which is my favourite of their range. It is rich, but light and non greasy which I think is important. There are also bath drops, I’ve not tried these yet, but plan too. Then there is a kind bum buddy traveller, perfect for out and about. The range is available from Amazon and Superdrug.com online, and Morrisons, Ocado and ASDA. For more information you can visit www.bennettsforbabies.co.uk or their Facebook Page or twitter.
