Skincare for Babies: Why Natural & Organic Ingredients Matter
As the weather warms and blossoms bloom, spring brings new beginnings — and the perfect time to refresh your baby's skincare routine. At Seven Sundays, we believe in nourishing your little one’s skin with the gentlest, most natural ingredients. Here's why organic baby skincare is especially important in spring, and what to look for when choosing your baby’s skincare essentials.
Why Spring Can Be Tough on Delicate Baby Skin
Your baby's skin is up to 5 times thinner than adult skin, making it more vulnerable to irritation. As temperatures rise and allergens like pollen fill the air, many babies experience:
Dry patches or redness
Heat rash from warmer clothing
Flare-ups from synthetic or fragranced products
This makes gentle, natural skincare more important than ever.
What Makes a Product "Organic Baby Skincare"?
At Seven Sundays, when we say “organic,” we mean formulated with care, using ingredients that are:
Certified organic where possible
Free from parabens, sulfates, silicones, and synthetic fragrance
Dermatologically tested and safe for newborns
Organic baby skincare goes beyond just being “natural.”
It ensures no harmful chemicals, from farm to formula.
Key Ingredients to Look For
Whether you’re switching products or starting fresh this spring, look for these calming, nourishing ingredients:
Calendula – known for its anti-inflammatory properties
Chamomile – soothes itchy or sensitive skin
Jojoba Oil – hydrate and protect the skin barrier
Aloe Vera – cools and calms spring-related flare-ups
You’ll find these in our bestselling Organic Baby Oil and Natural Baby Wash – each thoughtfully formulated for your baby’s daily routine.
How to Build a Gentle Skincare Routine
Start with the Baby Wash
Choose a natural baby wash that’s soap-free, pH balanced, and free from synthetic lathering agents. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth to cleanse your baby’s skin gently, especially in areas prone to sweat buildup (like neck folds or behind knees).
Lock in Moisture with Organic Baby Oil
After bathing, lightly towel-dry your baby and apply a few drops of organic baby oil while the skin is still damp. This locks in moisture and supports the skin barrier.
Our Seven Sundays Baby Oil contains organic sunflower and coconut oils — rich in antioxidants and safe for even the most sensitive skin.
Spot-Treat with Natural Balms or Lotions
For dry patches or areas of irritation, apply a natural baby lotion or balm. Avoid synthetic fragrance or petroleum-based products which can block pores and worsen flare-ups.
