Hi all,
My 6 week old seems to be suffering with mild case of baby acne. Only flares up really in the warmth and when he's flustered / frustrated. It's also worse on one side, the side he sleeps mostly on etc. We are 85/90% certain it's acne as it isn't anywhere else on his body and flares up and down & when we're out barely there.... Had it couple of weeks now but doesn't seem to be getting any better.
For the past week we have noticed dry flaky patches on his eyebrows which do go red. And does seem to be cradle cap as know it can appear here.
Mixed with his acne he doesn't have a very pretty face at the miment. We olive oil his head (just dry) and his eyebrows every night but any advice on getting rid?? Every website mainly discussed shampoo for his scalp! He has fine scalp! Just these eyebrows!
I've got dentinox but as his scalp is ok am yet to try - unless a bit on the eyebrow?!
Also have oilatum junior wash ready for when we put stuff in his bath as currently just water.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Lou
