How to treat and remove cradle cap with BalmNatural Baby Balm

What is Cradle Cap?

Cradle cap is a common, harmless skin condition that affects many babies. Usually appears around the first or second month after birth.  Characterized by yellowish greasy, scaly patches on the scalp. Which looks similar on different skin tones. Some babies will also have dry patches on the face and body.  It is not infectious or a serious condition and doesn't cause any discomfort for your baby.

How to treat Cradle Cap

One gentle, effective way to soothe and treat cradle cap is by using an effective emollient like Balmnatural Baby Balm. A vegan, fragrance-free Balm specifically designed for baby's delicate skin and scalp. Infused with sunflower, Oat and Calendula extracts  to help soften and loosen the scales, making them easier to remove while soothing baby's sensitive scalp.

How to Use Balmnatural Baby Balm for Cradle Cap

1. Apply the Baby Balm:
- Warm a small amount of the balm between your fingertips.
- Gently massage it onto your baby's scalp, focusing on the affected areas.
- Leave the balm on for a few hours or overnight for maximum benefit.

2.Wash the Scalp:
- After the balm has had time to work, wash your baby's hair with a mild, fragrance-free baby shampoo.
- Rinse thoroughly and gently pat the scalp dry with a soft towel.

Additional Tips:

Avoid Picking: Resist the urge to pick at the scales, as this can irritate the skin and lead to infection. Instead, allow the balm to do its work in softening the flakes naturally.

Using BalmNatural baby balm, you can help ease your baby's cradle cap while keeping their scalp healthy and nourished.
