Cradle Cap

January 9th, 2007

Its not pretty to look at, but cradle cap is a harmless scalp condition common in newborns.  It can appear anytime between two weeks to three months and usually clears up on its own.

The best way to remove it is to rub a mild vegetable oil or olive oil into your baby’s scalp a couple times a week, let it sit for 15 minutes then comb out the flakes.  Then wash your baby’s hair with a gentle baby shampoo.

Now speaking of oils that are good for cradle cap, we have some special oils for mom too! The Herb Infused Stretch oil is a unique blend of light oils that will keep mama’s skin soft.   A Little Something New for the New Mama set includes natural nipple cream, bottom spray and organic healing tea.
