Pure Mavens

For dry skin on little cheeks and faces, the Disney Gentle Naturals Baby Eczema Cream works pretty well, and the name says it all, right? I mean, “Gentle Naturals” sounds like exactly what a pure-seeker would want. Not so much.

We all know by now that parabens (basically, crummy preservatives linked to a variety of health concerns) have no place in our personal care and baby care products. So, reading the ingredients in the so-called Gentle Naturals didn’t thrill me:

“…Isopropylparaben (and) Isobutylparaben (and) Butylparaben…”

Parabens aplenty…

Plain old petroleum jelly is a good substitute for really dry skin, or for daily moisturizing, check out Earth Mama Angel Baby and Avalon at http://www.repurify.com/shop/baby-mom.html
