What Is Eczema-Prone Skin?

Eczema-prone skin is one of the four main skin types of babies, but it can be found in children and adults as well. People with this skin type typically have a weakened skin barrier that makes their skin more susceptible to irritants and allergens. As a result, they'll periodically experience bumps, red patches, and itchiness. The extreme itch can disrupt daily activities and sleep patterns if left untreated. About 1 in 5 children are affected by eczema, so it's pretty common. Many of these kids will outgrow this condition as they age. Others will need to manage their symptoms throughout their lives.

How Can I Tell If My Baby Has Eczema?

The most common symptom of eczema is dry, itchy skin. You may also notice small bumps or areas of thickened, discolored skin. Eczema can appear anywhere on the body, including the face, hands, feet, and the back of the knee. Symptoms often come and go, and you might be able to track flare-ups to specific triggers, such as certain fabrics or foods. If you suspect your baby has eczema, it's best to consult a pediatrician for an accurate diagnosis. They can also help you develop a customized treatment plan.

How Do I Soothe Eczema-Prone Skin?

When your baby's experiencing an eczema flare-up, here are some things you can do to help them feel better: • Try to determine what triggers are causing the symptoms to worsen and avoid them if possible • Select fragrance-free products formulated for eczema-prone skin • Keep baths short and cool long, hot soaks can further dry out the skin • Use a hydrating cleanser (like Stelatopia Cleansing Oil) instead of soap • Apply moisturizer after every bath • Choose pajamas and clothes made from non-irritating fabric (such as cotton) • Regularly wash your little one's bedding and outerwear in gentle, fragrance-free laundry detergent If these home-care measures aren't making a difference, you'll want to ask your child's pediatrician about other treatment options.

What Is Mustela's Stelatopia Cleansing Oil?

Mustela's Stelatopia Cleansing Oil is a cleanser made from natural plant-based ingredients chosen for their hydrating properties, such as Sunflower Oil Distillate and Avocado Perseose®. This all-in-one bathtime solution easily dissolves dirt and can keep your baby's face, body, and hair skin clean without drying it out. The gentle formula is an excellent choice for newborns and babies with eczema-prone skin. It also works well for older children. Because it contains no harsh chemicals or fragrances that can irritate your newborn's sensitive skin, you can use Stelatopia Cleansing Oil in your baby's very first bath. And since it's tear-free, you won't have to worry if a tiny bit accidentally gets into your baby's eyes as you figure out how to maneuver through bath time.

How Do I Use Stelatopia Cleansing Oil?

You can use Stelatopia Cleansing Oil in two different ways. You can apply it directly to wet skin or add it to the bath water. Let's look more closely at each method. For direct application, simply squirt a small amount of the oil into your hand. Then, gently use it to wash your little one's face, body, and hair. After they're clean, rinse the oil off thoroughly. If you prefer to add Stelatopia Cleansing Oil directly to the bath water, fill the tub with lukewarm water. Then, pour a small amount of oil and swirl the water a few times to distribute it evenly. Put your baby into the tub and use the water to wash them. Rinse thoroughly in clean water after they've soaked a bit. Either way, just be careful the oil can make the tub (and your baby) slippery.
