Since half of the people I know are either pregnant or have just given birth, it seemed like the right time for this.

Baby Butt Salve — for safe, gentle treatment of diaper rash, cradle cap, dry skin (on mother and baby), and chapped nipples. This salve forms a thin, moisturizing barrier to keep that inevitable ‘wet’ away from baby’s skin, and helps to prevent thrush as well. Also soothes and heals irritated skin.

I’ve used olive oil, beeswax, and jojoba oil, and rich, skin-nourishing shea butter as the base for this salve. To this richly moisturizing blend I’ve added chamomile essential oil and infused calendula — both will act to reduce inflammation and promote regeneration of skin cells. And the calming effect of the chamomile can’t hurt, either!

Each jar contains one and one-half ounces of handmade, all-natural Baby Butt Salve. As always, I’ve made it by hand out of essential oils and other natural ingredients.

Ingredients: Olive oil, beeswax, shea butter, jojoba oil, infused calendula, chamomile essential oil, vitamin E oil.
