I use aqueous cream instead of soap, and oilatum cream on dry patches afterwards. Leaves skin lovely and soft

I never used anything either

My DS has dry skin patches so that's why I use the creams

I use a tiny amount of jojoba oil to give him a little massage.

PFB - organic all natural cream after every bath
DD2 - nowt

Neither have/had dry skin though, I'm sure that would have changed things Smile

DS has hydromol ointment all over as he's prone to eczema. Otherwise I don't think I would use anything on a regular basis.

I use Burt Bees oil for babies, LO gets a massage every day as part of his bedtime routine.
