"HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! I was so happy when we used this shampoo on both of my babies when they had cradle cap. Doc had suggested head and shoulders which I didn’t want to use on newborn. This resolved the problem quicker than I expected. Loved that it’s also safe and gentle product."

Amazing Shampoo
"When my son was a baby, he had terrible cradle cap. Someone recommended Mustela, so we gave it a try—and within just two washes, his cradle cap completely cleared up. We were so impressed back then. For the next 13 years, he never had any issues. But about two years ago, he developed a severely flaky scalp with painful pustules. We took him to a dermatologist, tried every type of dandruff shampoo—including prescription formulas—but nothing worked. Over time, the itching became unbearable. He was showering multiple times a day just to find some relief. A couple of weeks ago, we remembered how well Mustela had worked when he was a baby and decided to try it again. The results have been incredible. In just two weeks, his scalp is completely clear—no more pustules, no more flaking, no more itching. You truly have an amazing product. A huge thank you!"

Amazing cradle cap treatment
"My 2 month old son had moderate cradle cap and it didn’t bother me for a while, but as it started to get worse, I decided to look for a product to treat it. I wish I had tried this product by Mustela earlier, and I wish I had taken a “before” photo! We have used the overnight treatment twice and shampoo once so far, and the improvement is clearly visible - the cradle cap scales have reduced by over 50%. I will definitely recommend this to all my friends with babies who have cradle cap."

My baby has been
"My baby has been having this issue since he was born he is now almost 2 months. I have gone to his pediatrician and said it was normal that it would go away on its self and to not put anything on it. It just kept getting worse and worse. I did a deep dive and have read a lot of good things about this product. I decided to try it and the first day it came in I used it on him and saw a difference! THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!"

Magic
"I've used this on all 3 of my babies and it works like magic. My boys have eczema and sensitive skin as well as tight coily curls. This product is effective and non-irritating and left their baby coils soft and silky and crust-free. I love it."

So worth it!!!
"We came home from a trip to Paris and noticed how so many baby products in America contain sulphates and parabens. Not able to find the best healthy options like I can for myself as a stylist, I decided to look for a product with the smallest ingredient list. This was it and I couldn't be more happy. Gentle, smells great, and really gets the job done. We Love this baby shampoo!"

10/10 recommending this shampoo.
"10/10 recommending this shampoo. We were using the honest co orange and vanilla shampoo/body wash and our baby had a horrible rash on his head ears and back. We switched to this and within days it was completely gone. The foam wash feels so luxurious and nice to put on too. He loves bathtime and I love having a baby with healthy skin!"
