Aveeno Baby

Hello lovelies, 

last week I went to an event with Aveeno thanks to KBBV in Mother and Baby Fair 2018 in Balai Kartini. The event went on smoothly with a doctor in the house, representative from Aveeno Indonesia and an influencer which is also a mom with concern over her baby's skin.

The doctor is Dr. M. Akbar Wedyadhana, SpKK, FINS-DV and the mom influencer is Ellyse Sinsilia. Dr. M. Akbar is happen to be a dermavenereologist from Senopati Skin Center, so he definitely qualified to talk about skin condition.

During the event, we talk about skin sensitivity in babies and young kids, as well as how to keep the condition healthy and comfortable. So there's things that we can actually do even thou' the condition (like perhaps sensitivity) is considered permanent due to hereditary from the previous generations (aka parents). You can definitely heard more on my Instagram account (@Carnellin) since I post most of the talkshow on instastories.

The thing is, we tend to generalized the kids condition based on society, so if all babies are using Telon oil (for example) we thought that would be the best for our kids without even learning that our babies might allergic to it or just simply couldn't take the heat. Or other 'misconception' like some babies aren't supposed to be bath, or cleanser regularly while medically they were supposed to be cleaned well using proper skincare, like in this event, introducing Aveeno Baby.

I gain a lot of important messages during the event, like Aveeno safety standards to key ingredients of Aveeno Baby

COLLOIDAL OATMEAL

Locks in moisture and helps prevent dry skin.

The AVEENO^® brand is most trusted for its use of natural ingredients. Oat is the natural ingredient most recommended by dermatologists. As a skin protectant active ingredient, oatmeal can help restore skin's normal pH and aid in the maintenance of skin's moisture barrier to help prevent and protect dry skin.

Aside from oatmeal, there's also soy, blackberry, feverfew, wheat, shitake, seaweed, southernwood, and lotus. Do check them out at https://www.aveeno.com

I personally have tried most of Aveeno products since I lived in Singapore and their brand itself is a no stranger for someone who have sensitive skin like me. I'm using the products for grown up and the kids are using the one for babies, actually the grown up can use the products for babies too, just in case you have super sensitive skin like babies.

As a mom, I always tested the products on myself first before giving them to the kids, and since I'm also having sensitive skin that will react almost in a number of days or sometime even almost immediately, I can offer them (my kids) as a human tester. I can feel assured that Aveeno Baby products that have met the US FDA Standard can be safely use for my children. The product contain so little aroma means that most mass produced products in Indonesia market for kids is bombarded with unnecessary perfume and ingredients that can harm their delicate skin.

Aveeno Baby is hypoallergenic, fragrance free, so all the aroma we sniff are from natural ingredients, where most of them is

OAT EXTRACT

Carefully extracted from the oat kernel, Oat Extract provides a soothing effect while gently nourishing delicate skin.

Aveeno word itself is a translation from latin word Avena by the founders of Aveeno, which means, oat. They belief for the nature of oat that nourishing, caring and have so many properties for the skin and hair.
