When this product was launched there was great feedback from Mums saying it cleared up eczema type rashes and nappy rash in just two days, and from other women saying they now use it as a soothing face cream. Many new mums have said they get really confused when trying to work out what is best to put on their baby’s bottom between nappy changes because many of the creams available have parabens and other chemicals which can often aggravate the sensitive skin on a baby’s bottom.
So Wendyl's worked with Tricia Curtis who has been making balms for twenty years using plants grown on her farmlet in Puhoi or in native bush. A simple, time-honoured process of putting the healing essences of everyday plants cultivated in her garden or gathered from our regenerating native bush into a readily usable form.
The baby balm Tricia has made is a rich cream using the purest ingredients to soothe and protect your baby’s skin. But you can also use it as an amazing lip balm, and also as a deep moisturiser for your face. It’s ingredients are:
Olive oil – Rich in Vit A, Vit E anti-inflammatory and skin regenerative properties.
Beeswax – Anti-bacterial properties and contains Vit A; is skin regenerative.
Calendula – Fabulous healer, antibacterial, stimulates regrowth of damaged skin tissue therefore diminishing scar tissue formation.
Kawakawa – New Zealand’s own native plant is analgesic, soothing pain and stimulating skin healing.
Aloe Vera – Great for burns, protects and heals babies bottoms from the burns of acidic urine and diarrhoea so common during teething. Rehydrates skin, analgesic and anti-inflammatory.
Plantain – Anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and analgesic. Helps maintain healthy environment on the skin.
