They Should Call It Mrs. Meyer's Clean Baby

Heather Kuldell — Wed, 27 May 2009 15:34:00 GMT

Ah, babies bloom a little everyday, don’t they? And then there are those moments when they’re down right ripe. Let Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day take care of the stinkier moments. That’s right, Mrs. Meyer’s, the company that helped make kitchen sinks smell like lavender now bestows the power of its essential oils on children. The company’s Baby Blossom Hair & Body Shampoo ($9.99) is infused with the smells of spring, including violets, honeysuckle, apple, lemon and mint. It’s organic, biodegradable, phosphate-free, dermatologist-tested to be gentle, and based around coconut and olive oil surfactants. Aromatherapy won’t stop them from growing up to be a wild child, but at least you’ll get to remember when they were more like a wildflower.

A VedaBaby Bath Is Like A Mini Spa Treatment

Lisa Estall — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:10:00 GMT

I discovered this baby skincare collection VedaBaby and really like the products. Inspired by using ancient ayurvedic principles and herbal remedies, VedaBaby is the creation of a pediatrician who wanted to provide parents with products containing the purest ingredients for their babies. I've been using... Shampoo and Body Wash for my baby and it feels like she's getting a mini spa treatment since the smell is really calming.

It's $40 a jar but if you want to splurge, it would make a nice treat for your children.

Green Up Bath Time with MethodKid Squeaky Green 3-in-1 Shampoo

Heather Kuldell — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 10:20:00 GMT

You may know Method for its naturally derived household cleaners that not only smell of scents like french lavender, sweet water and cucumber, but look chic. (As chic as dish soap and all-purpose cleaner can be.) What you may not know is that they do skincare.

The rubber duckie-esque bottle of MethodKid Squeaky Green 3-in-1 Shampoo is a great size and shape for smaller hands. The fluid squeezes easily through the bottom and can be used as a body wash, shampoo and a conditioner. And of course, the mix is pediatrician tested and hypo-allergenic. Fewer bottles and chemicals in the bathroom equals a cleaner environmental conscious. ~~There’s just one problem: Why isn’t the bottle recyclable?~~ UPDATE: The bottle is recyclable, but the symbol is hidden by the feet.

Available at methodhome.com for $7 fuzzy peach or crisp apple scents.

So Cozy – Hair Care for Tots

alibaba — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 14:31:00 GMT

If you're planning to camp out at all this summer or if your kids attend day care (where lice outbreaks are pretty much impossible to control), read on! Hip uptown Manhattanites all know the deal with Cozy’s Cuts for Kids – it’s a hair salon and toy store where kids are entertained while having their hair cut so that they aren’t terrified. It makes sense – who really likes the idea of having sharp scissors and buzzing razors near the their head? Owner Cozy (yes, that’s really her name) recently expanded her haircutting empire to include tear-free shampoo and conditioners that come in delicious scents like strawberry and grape. Especially brilliant for this time of year is the Camp Kit, featuring Boo! Shampoo and Boo! Conditioner, which are natural lice and tick repellents, since the only thing worse to come home with from camp than a sunburn or mosquito bites is a head full of hungry cooties.

The Camp Kit contains Boo! Shampoo, Boo! Conditioner, So Cozy Swimmers Shampoo and a handy flashlight for $42 at cozyscutsforkids.com.

Give Your Baby Hair Like Brooke Sheilds

Karen — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 18:08:00 GMT

Little Sprout baby shampoo is endorsed by a few celebs, including Mom Brooke Sheilds. It's a formula that is proven to treat exema and cradle cap - two common skin conditions in babies.

Knowing the battle I had with cradle cap on both of my kid's lids, had this been around, I would have given it a whirl, even at $24.95.

Go Fish Bath Brings It Clean

Kelly Mills — Thu, 28 Jun 2007 12:30:00 GMT

Here's what's good about this Go Fish bath set (about $17.99): it comes with an octopus full of bubble bath; the little pail of mud soap would go over very well at our house; and the kids can make fauxhawks with the Blueberry Burst Scrunch 'n' Play Shampoo. (Although pretty much any shampoo works for that, but hey, two out of three ain't bad.) Mud soap could just be the answer to the trauma that is our nightly bath fight. Mama's secret weapon.

Calidou Spa Baby Products - Help or Hype?

Carmen — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 11:02:00 GMT

Oh, my. $16 for baby bottom cream? Even if it does promise "irrestible softness," I'm not sure I can pay that price without cringing. Who really wants a soft baby bottom, anyway?

Billed as a fusion of quality, softness, performance and results, the name Calidou originates from the French meaning "gentle caress". Made with natural ingredients chosen for their high quality epidermal protection, dye and fragrance free, the line showcases shampoos, cleansing lotions - what we call soap in our house - bubble bath and various moisturizing creams.

I'm sure it smells great. I'm sure that it makes for super soft baby skin. Let's hope that for 16 bucks, it does everything it says it will.
