AVEENO Baby Daily Care Hair & Body Wash

The AVEENO Baby Daily Care Hair & Body Wash gently cleanses and leaves delicate baby skin feeling moisturised as well as leaving the hair soft, shiny and easy to comb. The product is developed for newborn skin, soap-free, paediatrician tested and formulated to minimise the risk of allergies.

Would you recommend this to other mums?

Naomi: Aveeno is a very well known brand and has a good reputation. The product was really nice to use, had a pleasant smell and left my son's skin feeling smooth and cleansed as well as hydrated and moisturised. It worked into a nice lather and a small amount was sufficient to wash my son from head to toe.

Georgie: I would recommend this product to fellow mums due to the formula. Aveeno daily care is safe to use from newborn and is gentle on the babies skin and hair. The pump design makes bath time easier as you do not have to use both hands to tip and squeeze. It smells gorgeous also and my little one smells lovely after using.

Charlotte: Before testing the Aveeno Baby Hair and Body Wash, I hadn’t used any of their products but now I tell everyone about them! I love how luxurious it feels and it is completely free of any nasty ingredients. It is gentle and nourishing on hair and skin and I would recommend it to all parents but especially those with children who suffer from eczema.

How did this product make your life easier?

Kirsty: This seems to be a miracle product. Until I was asked to test this cream I had always steered clear of it. Upon receiving the cream it has quickly become my go-to moisturiser for the whole family! My 16-month-old twins and five-year-old suffer from eczema patches that have previously been treated with various creams and lotions over the counter and prescription but now all we need is Aveeno.

Sonya: The product saved me time and storage space as it is a multi-usage body and hair wash. This was so useful as I was able to speed up bath time by just having the one bottle to dispense from.

Alison: I like the bottle as it has a pump dispenser which makes it easy to get the soap out quickly, especially when you have a wriggly baby. It's easy to lather up and apply to hair and body and I know that I am using a gentle product on my babies skin. A bottle will last a long time as a little goes a long way.

Would you choose this product to win?

Emily: Yes. I've tried most products from store brands to high-end but this wins hands down. My 12-month-old felt fresh and soft and I noticed a difference in my three-year-olds skin after the first bath. I love that it smells baby friendly as I personally hate products that take away the lovely baby smell.

Charlotte: I would definitely like to see this product win an award as it’s so luxurious yet at an affordable price (particularly with it being a 2-in-1 product). I really like the oaty smell and a little goes a long way. I will definitely continue to use this product and have also bought other items in the same range.

Kirsty: I am an Aveeno convert and I will definitely be choosing this moisturiser every time. It truly is fragrance-free which means I use it too. It is approved by paediatricians which is a big thumbs up. It gave my kids near enough instant relief from eczema leaving their skin soft and healthy.

What changes would you make to this product?

Sonya:  I would maybe use some child-friendly animals or symbols on the packaging so it appeals to children more clearly and gets them excited about using it at bathtime.

Alison: I would prefer if it was made with 100% natural ingredients as I want to avoid chemicals. It is on the pricey side compared to other similar natural baby hair and body washes so I might only buy when it is on offer.

Emily: The only thing I would change is the price. I have been put off of this product in the past purely because of the price compared to other brands that claim to do the same thing.
