    Helped to clear newborn acne

    Solid 5 stars. Got a sample in a basket and tried it when my baby was 2 weeks old. I was nervous to try anything on his skin but tried this on his face and body to attempt to help with both baby acne and typical newborn shed. It's helped and now a week later his skin is looking great again. For those mentioning how greasy it is, it actually absorbs beautifully within a couple of hours. Baby wakes up with more hydrated, less irritated and supple skin. Just bought the full sized bottle and will be gifting this for future moms.

    Great product!! 10000% worth it.

    Honestly I like this stuff. It's a bit thick but goes on smooth and spreads out easy. My baby's scalp is dry and his poor forehead is red and flaky and nothing I've tried has helped. Used this twice and it made a huge difference.

    4th time mom necessity even past newborn stage!

    I have bought two tubes of this! I know it says newborn balm but I loved it so much we are using it on our 5 month old after every bath! It even got rid of cradle cap! She had bad baby acne and it helped that too! If she cuts her skin from her nails it heals it quickly too! Certain diapers were even leaving red marks and chafing on her chunky thighs so putting this on it helped it go away! I will continue to use this after every bath!

    similar feel to petroleum jelly but more balm-like

    Came with a foil seal under the cap. Couldn't find an expiration date. No discernible scent. The balm dispenses as a medium weight balm-y, almost gel like texture. When applying on skin, it feels similar to petroleum jelly but a bit more like a cream (or balm) than straight up petroleum jelly. Absorbs well but not completely, leaving a bit of a barrier on the skin. Glad to have this on hand for upcoming visits from the newest addition to the family. Would recommend/get this again.
