Read the age band and the full ingredient list, and decide about fragrance deliberately rather than by default. A baby oil is mostly its base oil — mineral, coconut, almond, sesame or a blend — and the base is what you are really choosing between. A lotion is mostly water and an emollient, and the ingredient order shows the balance. Buy small when trying something new, and patch-test it first.
Nothing here is medical advice and we make no claims about infant skin. Anything for broken or irritated skin is a paediatrician question. We show what the pack declares and describe how the product was made.
