Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion is everywhere these days. Before I got my hands on this baby moisturizer, I was really wondering why every mommy blogger is so thrilled about this new launch from Aveeno Baby. After all it’s just a moisturizing baby lotion. What was so amazing about this. The market is full of baby lotions, which are lightweight yet moisturizing. Then I realized the real deal.
I would slather myself in any moisturizer or cream which promises a nice moisture level for my body. But I would totally restrain from using just any product for my son. He is 3. I have always tried to research well before using any baby product for him.
Why Do You Need To Research Well Before Purchasing Any Baby Product?
- Baby’s skin needs time to adapt to environment outside womb after it is born.
- A baby’s skin is very fragile. It lacks the elasticity as well as thickness that our skin as adults have.
- Baby’s skin is very prone to getting allergic reactions even from natural ingredients.
- Using chemical based which contain parabene & phthalates may harm a baby’s internal organ in long term.
Why It Is important To Use Parabene & Phthalates Free Baby Products?
Phthalates are from Industrial Chemical family which are used to soften plastic products. While in cosmetics they are used as solvent to help the products to penetrate skin easily. If used for a long term Phthalates can harm kidney, lungs, lever & even reproductive system.
Parabenes are primarily used as preservative in cosmetic products. They are mostly termed as non irritating substances but may develp skin allergies, rashes and even dermatises. Also upon exposing to sun rays, some parabene may react with UVB rays which results into skin ageing and even DNA damage.
I hope I do not need to tell you how important it is to use parabene & phthalates free baby products.
Why I Chose Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion For My Son?
I really got goose bumps when I read about parabenes & phthalates for the first time. Such chemicals are harmful even for adults let alone a baby’s skin & health. I made sure to use parabene & phthalate free products for my son since his birth.
Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion contains colloidal oatmeal blended with rich emollients to soothe your baby’s delicate & dry skin. The naturally nourishing, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, moisturizes for a full 24 hours, and it contains no drying alcohols and won’t clog pores.

Ingredients
Packaging
The lotion comes packed in an opaque off white plastic tube with a pale blue flip top cap. The cap closes quite securely with a click sound hence no spillage expected. All the information about he product is stated on the labels on the tube.
Fragrance & Texture
This is a completely fragrance free baby lotion. My son actually wanted to smell it when he saw it for the very first time but he was like Mom, there is no smell. I was smiling back at him, yes, baby there is no smell. I consider fragrance free products better specially for baby since added fragrances can react badly to baby’s skin.
The texture of the Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion is medium. It is not super thick neither super runny. It is just the perfect that even my 3 years old son can take it out and apply on himself since he likes to do so anyway.
How My Son Liked Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion?
I received this product from Aveeno Baby about 2 weeks ago. Since then I have been using it for my son. I don’t generally use just any baby product on my son since he has sensitive skin. But after reading the labels of the product I was very convinced and decided to try it for him.
It’s been about 2 weeks now, I have been using it for him once in the morning before his school and sometimes at night if he takes another bathe. He does not have ultra dry skin, but I am sure the consistency and the moisture rich formula of this lotion will cure any dry skin.
He likes to slather himself in the lotion by himself and then I would give him a mini massage every morning. His skin feels soft & moisturized afterwords. I do not need to reapply it until next day. It surely is able to provide his skin 24 hours moisture. I still need to test it during the upcoming harsh winter when no level of moisture is enough.

When it comes to a baby, parents do not leave any stone unturned to ensure her health & safety. If a product offers nice quality, price hardly matters to them.

I believe you can’t say no to such an amazing product.
