More on Grandma El's after the jump!


So a little background on Grandma El's. It all began in 1972 when a renowned skin care specialist and cosmetic chemist, Robert Posner created a special formula that was used to heal patients with bedsores and other wounds in New York. Decades later, his son Jonathan saw the need for a truly safe and effective diaper rash product so he took their special formula and started Grandma El's.
I have been using Mustela's Diaper Rash and Prevention Cream and Henri's skin and it seems to agree with him. I am always open to other options though so that I can recommend.

Grandma El’s diaper rash remedy is an all-natural, and USA made, ointment that creates a breathable barrier that soothes, calms, and heals any rash that your baby may develop. It is free of Parabens, Phthalates, and SLS so it is perfectly safe to use with every diaper change.

Compared to Mustela's diaper rash and prevention cream, Grandma El's is an ointment that has the consistency and appearance similar to Vaseline. It looked really oily so cloth diaper mommas may have a bit of concern using this product but as it turned out it's quite safe for cloth diaper users. Of course, this is according to some of the moms who reviewed this since I am a disposable diaper kind of mom.

I haven't used this tear-free baby shampoo on Henri yet since he doesn't have the need to use one yet. He has like maybe 5 hairs so it's pointless!

This special shampoo provides a soft, creamy lather which caresses as it cleanses. The controlled lather helps to keep suds from your baby's eyes. The neutral pH of this exceptional formula prevents irritation and eye tearing. It is Paediatrician recommended, baby friendly, and helps prevent cradle cap, cradle cap is that scaly thing that happens to your baby's head during the first few months of life.

 Since Henri is not yet using lotion, I can't use this yet so I will have to revisit this blog post when he is already using lotion. It smells so good too I want to use it on myself!
The Tear-free gentle baby wash however agrees with Henri's skin very much. Henri developed  an eczema-type rash after switching from baby soap to baby soap, I even opted for Dr. Woods Baby Mild Castile Soap from Healthy Options to avoid fragrances but the rash was persistent. The rash kept coming back, and the doctor said he had sensitive skin.
