Our baby bum cream is almost finished! We have dedicated months to perfecting our formulations and we are so proud of what we have created.

We’ve decided to go for two different versions. Unscented and ‘scented’ which contains organic essential oils.

Unscented is perfect for the first 100 days of when your baby is born. Your baby uses scent to create the bond with you. Even using natural products that contain a fragrance can disrupt the process!

We created our 2nd baby bum balm with essential oils to pack more of a punch when it comes to the healing and protecting your baby’s little bum bum.

We had a few hiccups along the line and this last month we struggled with the feel of the essential oil version. It had a very hard texture, which is not ideal when your baby is doing the macarena dance when trying to apply bum cream and a nappy. After hours in the lab we have nailed it! Much softer and easier to apply.
