Treat Diaper Rash Safely With Earth Mama Angel Baby – Review and Giveaway!

Photobucket
When my daughter Emma was born one year ago, I didnt think twice about smearing creams and lotions on her sweet little newborn skin. Diaper rash cream specifically, something that I used often. Its made especially for babies, right? Of course its safe! I trusted the companies that made these medications. Then one day I came across Cosmetics Database and everything changed.At Cosmetics Database, you can search by ingredient, product, or company and find out which products contain toxic or dangerous ingredients as well as what the level of risk is on a scale of 1 to 10. I personally searched for one of the most well-known brands of diaper rash cream and was dismayed to find that the level of danger is a 5-6. That is not a risk I want to take, thank you very much!

I couldnt help but feel a bit betrayed and immediately began the search for safer alternatives. Youll be relieved to know that there are many low-level alternatives available, all listed through Cosmetics Database.

The diaper rash treatments with the absolute lowest (rated at zero) risk, though? There are only a handful, and included in this short list is Earth Mama Angel Babys Angel Baby Bottom Balm and Angel Baby Diaper Rash Soap. About Earth Mama Angel Baby:

Earth Mama Angel Baby is a company that truly impresses me. They care about moms, without a doubt. They care about their products and the mommies and babies that use them, and go to great lengths to ensure that their products are safest. Their site has many special sections designed to educate mamas and they even have a special support site for baby loss comfort as well as a free birth plan.

Angel Baby Bottom Balm Review:

This diaper rash soother is made with organic olive oil infused with a proprietary blend of naturally antibacterial and antifungal organic herbs, shea butter and pure essential oils. Some of the essentials oils and herbs are shea butter, St. Johns Wort, lavender oil, and tea tree oil. What I notice most in the fragrance is tea tree oil, a very clean and natural scent. I did some research on tea tree oil and found that it is a natural antiseptic and antifungal which makes it a great choice. The best part?

I recognize all of the ingredients!

I havent had a chance to use this on a bad case of diaper rash because Emma rarely has diaper rash something that I am SO thankful for! But once in awhile when it gets a little bit red in the diaper area I slather some of this balm on and I believe it soothes her. If you read the reviews for Angel Baby Bottom Balm, youll see that mommies are very pleased with this product and claim that it clears up diaper rash quickly.



Another awesome thing about the Bottom Balm is that
it can be used on cuts, scrapes, burns, cradle cap, chicken pox, bug bites, and more I love multi-use products!

Angel Baby Diaper Rash Soap Review:

Called bottom balm in a bar, the Angel Baby Diaper Rash Soap is a great choice for sensitive skin, a super gentle first aid soap.

Our hand made, herb-infused soap is creamy and moisturizing because its made with lots of soothing organic oatmeal and only pure, safe ingredients.

I love this soap. Its gentle, soothing, and smells faintly of calendula (at least I think thats what the scent it its not tea tree oil, its a softer scent). Emma comes out of the tub fresh and comfortingly clean.

Questions and Answers with Earth Mama Angel Baby:

Me: Whats the difference between your bottom balm and diaper rash soap? Do you recommend having both on hand?

EMAB: The shampoo & body wash is a gentle, pure castile soap that is great for everyday bathing (for mamas too!), but the Angel Baby Diaper Rash Soap was formulated with all kinds of extra special herbal goodies to help fight diaper rash.The Angel Baby Diaper Rash Soap and the Angel Baby Bottom Balm together create a formidable team against diaper rash.

Me: How often should we apply the bottom balm?

EMAB:

Our #1 bestselling (for 7 years now!) Angel Baby Bottom Balm was, as you know, formulated to fight tough diaper rash, and also doubles as a fantastic first aid salve.Our customers tell us that when their little angel is affected that they have the best luck with applying at every changing (of course as soon as it is realized that the diaper is soiled).

Me: As an aside, I would love to see a truly pure and natural sunscreen! Do you have any plans to add something like this to your wonderful products?

EMAB: At this time, we do not have a sunscreen. As you know, safety is our number one priority in formulating our products. If Mama wouldnt use it on her own family, then we dont sell it, promise. At this time the best way to prevent sun damage to precious baby skin is to provide a barrier either from metals like zinc or titanium (often in the form of nanoparticles) or even better, a wide brimmed hat and sleeves! As soon as Mama can make a spectacular (and safe) sunscreen, well be shouting it from the rooftops, so make sure you let your readers know to sign up for our monthly newsletter.
