Are your products safe for babies?
Yes! However, because infants are more sensitive to essential oils, we recommend our Lil' Sprouts line, which specially formulated for babies, with a lower concentration of essential oils.

Is your Foaming Baby Wash tear-free?
Our Foaming Baby Wash is not tear-free because it’s made with natural soap, which has a slightly higher pH that can sting if it gets into the eyes. Unlike synthetic "tear-free" products that use milder surfactants or pH-adjusted formulas, our baby wash is crafted with pure, natural ingredients to prioritize safety and gentleness for your baby's skin.
Many "tear-free" products achieve their label by avoiding true soap altogether, instead using synthetic surfactants with neutral or low pH levels that are less likely to irritate the eyes. Rest assured, our Foaming Baby Wash is free from harsh chemicals, sulfates, and synthetic additives often found in conventional "tear-free" formulas.
While our baby wash may not be "tear-free," it's formulated with care to cleanse and nourish your baby's delicate skin naturally!
How to Work Around a Non-Tear-Free Baby Wash:
- Be mindful during bath time: Tilt your baby's head back gently while rinsing to keep soap away from the eyes.
- Use a washcloth: Apply the soap onto a damp washcloth instead of directly onto your baby’s skin, helping you control where the soap goes.
- Rinse carefully: Pour water gently using a cup or your hand, keeping it aimed at the back of their head rather than the face.
What’s the difference between Lil' Sprouts Diaper Rash Cream and Bum Balm?
Our Diaper Rash Cream is designed to heal existing diaper rash, using Zinc Oxide to create a strong moisture barrier, Coconut & Olive Oils to help heal and prevent infection, and Shea, Cocoa & Kokum Butters to moisturize and strengthen damaged skin.
Our Bum Balm is a lightweight, everyday barrier balm made with Olive Oil and Local Beeswax to keep baby skin moisturized and dry. It’s best used at every diaper change to help prevent diaper rash before it starts.
