Babies’ skin is generally fragile, it is not uncommon for newborns to have red and irritated skin, on the buttocks it is usually irritation due to diaper rash, which must be treated with creams you can find in pharmacies, but babies sometimes have irritations on the arms and legs that can be caused by an allergic reaction caused by synthetic fabrics or an overly aggressive detergent.
To limit skin irritation, choose natural materials for clothing, especially for underwear in direct contact with the skin, choose Organic Cotton bodies that are softer for the skin, choose Organic Cotton clothing made in France for a guarantee of quality, and also choose organic bed linen, as baby spends a lot of time in bed, so it is essential that this environment is as soft and healthy as possible to limit allergic risks and irritation.
Some detergents can also cause skin irritation, when baby arrives choose a hypoallergenic detergent, often based on Marseille soap, some are even "special for babies", you can also choose an organic detergent in a specialist store, make sure that the rinsing is sufficient, a too large dose of detergent or poorly rinsed laundry can cause skin irritation.
When you buy new clothes for your child or when you receive gifts of clothes, don’t forget to wash them before use to remove any traces of residues or dyes.
