How to find natural baby care products
The mantra is, “always read the label”. Even if something is described as ‘best for baby’ or ‘pure and natural’ always look carefully at what the product contains. Lotions and moisturizers which are advertised with components like ‘pure & natural’ may not be all they appear.
