5 Required care with baby's skin
When it comes to baby skin, a soft, silky smooth skin with no wrinkles or other problems comes to mind. But other than fluffy, the baby's skin is also more sensitive and is more prone to allergies, rashes and other sensitivities. According to a 2000 study by the Pediatric Clinics of North America, in Philadelphia, United States, 80% of newborns will have some skin lesion in the first month of life. To avoid them, it is important that parents take extra care. See the main ones below: 1. Make bath an ally The baby's bath should be warm as it soothes the child and does not bring irritations. In the summer, it is best to take more than one shower in the child so that it can cool down. However, it is recommended to use the soap only once a day as it can remove the protective film of fat from the child's skin, making it more exposed to sensitivity. Use soaps and shampoos suitable for children who have undergone dermatological and hypoallergenic tests.
2. When the baby is newborn, he still can not use sunscreen, because his skin is very sensitive and the product can irritate it. Therefore, protect the baby physically from the sun by wearing carts, caps, and mango clothing, but try using thinner fabrics in the summer. When the pediatrician authorizes, enter with the sunscreen, to better protect the child against the action of the sun.
3. Do not put too many clothes on your child.
Sweating can cause rashes and other allergies on the child's skin, so it is important for parents to be careful not to overcoat their baby, which can be tricky, since the little one can not verbally complain. This is also exacerbated by the fact that adults think babies feel colder than normal, which is a myth.

To see if the child is over-wrapped, the ideal is to observe it. If the baby feels uncomfortable with the amount of clothing and blankets, it will perspire and may even cry. A restless, red baby who is perspiring is certainly overcooked.
4. Choose the right clothing fabric
The baby does not yet have an enhanced immune system, so it is more prone to allergies when exposed to dust mites. The choice of tissue, therefore, is very important to prevent the child from developing allergies. So avoid buffy fabrics that can collect dust, such as wool, plush, soft and velvet, especially in winter. Cloths such as cotton, flannel and sweater are best suited for children.
These fabrics should be worn not only on the clothes, but also on the child's sheets, pillowcases and other bedding. Studies have shown that babies have seen themselves up to ten times a night, and the friction with the tissue can irritate their skin.
Parents' clothing also deserves attention, after all babies come into contact with these tissues when they are placed on the lap, for example.
5. Use the right products when doing laundry

Clothes and bedding are always in contact with the baby's skin, so they can be a common cause of allergies. Hygienizing them with antiallergic products is therefore a way to ensure that skin allergies do not appear on the child's skin. Products like the new Comfort Pure Care leave soft tissues, avoiding friction, especially when the child turns into the night.
There are several myths about the use of softeners in baby clothes, mainly because they are products that add smell of clothes. Coconut soap is often the favorite of parents because it is considered a more neutral and less artificial product. However, this product also contains chemical compounds and artificial fragrance, and if used alone it can leave the fabric hard and rough.
Therefore, it is best to use a product that was developed especially for sensitive skin, such as the baby. The Comfort Pure Care line, for example, underwent dermatological and hypoallergenic tests, as well as being an encapsulated, uncured product and dye recommended for people with sensitive skin such as babies.
