Bubblebath suitable for 18 month mild exema sufferer- Sorry if seems frivolous!

DS 18 months and I usually put Aveeno into his bath (though occasionally need to use Oilatum Junior).

He has never experienced a bubble bath which I know he would just love. Has anyone used or come across bubblebath which is hypoallergenic or suitable for use on sensitive skin? I would not like to upset his skin by using anything else Smile

Thanks

Have you used it yet?, is it ok?

We use infaderm (can get in boots, waitrose, sainsbury) not really bubbly but enough and neither of my two have had any issues with it.

I can use any of the "simple" products and the milk based radox ones. When I was little my man used to put matey in my bath and then add oilatum for the last few mins (it kills the bubbles)..

My dd has eczema. We only use Hydromol or Epaderm in the bath.

I have tried a couple of bubbly ones from the health shop that are supposed to be suitable for children with sensitive skin/eczema and she reacted badly to them.

I know a bubble bath is fun but at 18 months he doesn't know he is missing out and probably enjoys his bath loads anyway. I would be wary about adding anyrhing that could trigger a flare up.

My dd is similar to your son and we are using e45 bubble bath some bubbles buy drying.

My dd has mild eczema and I just got some Sanex 0% for 'very sensitive skin'. Its very bubbly so she's happy and seems OK so far. HTH.

My 18mo has eczema that can get pretty bad, but we use simple bath and shampoo and it works great. She still has to be smothered in cream every day but simple is the only bath stuff that doesn't irritate her x she loved her bubbles now!

Oilatum is excellent although a little pricey
Had hydromol and epiderm on prescription and they are fab too.
