New research shows the use of olive oil on babies’ skin can be counter-productive and by damaging the top layer of the skin can actually encourage eczema and allergic skin conditions. That’s why organic and Fairtrade skincare pioneer, Green People, has launched a new ‘Organic Babies’ No Scent Baby Oil which is made without damaging olive oil or mineral oils, just an unadulterated blend of the purest oils available to soothe, nourish, heal and protect little ones’ delicate skin.
Why is olive oil damaging for babies skin (0-3 months)?
Recent studies have shown that olive oil, recommended for years for massaging or moisturising baby’s skin, contains up to 83 per cent oleic acid, and has now been linked to a dramatic increase in eczema and skin allergies. The imbalance created by this high oleic acid content weakens the top layer of babies delicate skin. The natural water content of the skin is lost, leading to dry skin which is more prone to eczema, and allows chemicals to penetrate the skin more readily.
What harm can mineral oils do?
Don’t wrap your baby’s skin in cling-film! Mineral oils, paraffin wax and other petrochemicals are a by-product of crude oil and are also commonly found in many baby products, but these oils simply create a barrier on the skin which stops the skin from functioning naturally; toxins can’t be eliminated through the skin, the skin can’t breathe and the mineral oils are absorbed into the blood stream. Alternatively, plant oils actually feed the skin with essential nutrients.
May also be suitable for those prone to eczema and psoriasis
Suitable for vegans and vegetarians
