Good afternoon - my 11 month old daughter’s face is getting a little dry in the cold weather. Any tips on what to use? I currently use plain in fragranced baby wash and coconut oil plus Vaseline to prevent nappy rash but haven’t put anything apart from water on her face yet. Many thanks in advance

Second this! Brilliant stuff and smells lush

We used coconut oil when a tiny baby, and since then Epaderm Ointment. It’s a bit too greasy for my face more than once a week but brilliant for my toddler. My GP husband and paediatrician friend both recommended it.

I should say that the Epaderm ointment looks rather medicinal but we just use it for everyday useage: the occasional dry skin, to protect from cold winds etc

I have always loved weleda nappy and face creams. The white mallow face cream is really good and quite natural.

I hadn’t heard of Epaderm ointment - it looks good and helpful to know recommended by medics. Everything I’ve been looking at online seems to have sunflower oil etc in it which I’m trying to avoid. It’s all a bit of a minefield. Thank you

Cetraben is great, or Child's Farm.

I've been using Johnstons baby lotion and it's served us well. If it's just cold weather dryness and no exzema, you don't really need anything mega

Aveno recommended by paediatrician and gp. All the family use it. Tesco and amazon often have it on offer.
