Organic Skin Care Products for Children
By Alisha Burke
As we learn more about the impact of chemicals on our bodies and the environment, it is only natural to modify our behavior to accommodate our new knowledge. This especially applies when it comes to caring for our children. There are many of us out there who are very wary of exposing our children to many of the harmful chemicals found in consumer health care products.
There are many things a parent can do to minimize their children's exposure to dangerous chemicals. A good place to start is to choose quality, organic skin care products. I have personally used each of these products, and I would recommend them to anyone.
Weleda Diaper Care Cream
Weleda Diaper Care Cream has been a blessing in disguise. My youngest daughter used to get awful diaper rash. We tried a number of products to varying degrees of success, but nothing completely cured the problem until we discovered this wonderful product. As with all of Weleda's products, their effectiveness is second only to their simplicity. This cream is made from certified organic ingredients, using a base of Zinc Oxide and Calendula. After using this product, our diaper rash woes disappeared.
Dr. Hauschka Sunscreen Spray SPF20
This is yet another amazing product from Dr. Hauschka. As with their other products, all of the ingredients are certified organic. The wonderful thing about this sunscreen is that you are able to spray it on. This is about as close as you can get to all-natural sun protection. This wonderful product contains Zinc Oxide and Titanium Oxide, and the other plant-based ingredients act to sooth the skin as the sun dries it out.
Primavera Lavender Oil
Lavender Oil has been used for centuries to induce calming and to help with sleep. It has also been known to have antiseptic properties, and has traditionally been used to treat burns and cuts. My grandmother taught me to use it on sores and wounds. She used to put it on a bandage, and called it a Lavender kiss! I have taken her advice, and I use it on all of the minor scrapes my children get. I also place a few drops on each of our pillows to ensure a good night's sleep. Lavender oil is simply wonderful, and I highly recommend it for your family. About the Author Alisha Burke loves spending time with her family and friends.
