Do you check the ingredients in baby products?

by - July 25, 2019

 I went to the Johnson's 'School of Gentle' in the beginning of this month and graduated with full marks! Yes, I got to learn myriads of facts about the baby products that we use and I can proudly say that I am a more informed mother now! We moms were flown from all over India and our school was established in Grand Hyatt, Mumbai.
My day started with my baby dropping me off to school. I was taught 'Turn to learn'  Whenever you get any product in your hands, you should turn to read about the ingredients i.e what all are present in the product.
 I have always been a Johnson's mom and use Johnsons on both of my babies. However I have always been intrigued by so many ingredients in the products. In this school of gentle,  we were taught about all the ingredients present,  their common names and of course their roles.
Johnson's Baby uses the most essential and only safe ingredients. When you turn to learn, you get to know what all you are using on your baby.
We were divided into 4 batches and taken to different classrooms. My first class was that of fragrances....Did you know that fragrance helps to connect emotionally? Johnson's baby uses fragrances that are IRFA certified. Formulated by scientists and tests conducted all over the world.
In our next class we went to study about baby lotion. Johnsons baby lotion is absolutely non sticky yet very moisturising and no harmful chemicals. We did a few tests too to establish this fact. Our favourite big bottle comes with a pump. The lotion is white in colour. It's non sticky yet very moisturising. Me and my daughter have always loved it!

Then we went to 'Microbiome of Baby skin' class. We were taught about the infant/baby skin,  how sensitive it is and how to protect its integrity by applying the right products. We were also taught about good and bad microorganisms (especially bacteria) and how the bad ones attack when the baby skin is not intact. The class was taken by Dr Preeti and she did a great job in explaining us everything. There were fun activities too!
We also learnt that cuddling with the baby is important as it helps to transfer the good bacteria from the mother to the baby (provided the mother is absolutely clean of course). Gentle products like Johnsons help to make the baby skin healthy and strong.
Our last class was in a chemistry lab where we made top to toe wash ourselves. This class was taken by Dr Ram Shukla, the Head of R n D, J n J. Johnsons baby products are formulated after years of research and undergo rigorous quality checks. You can be blindly assured of their safety, efficacy and mildness. This revolutionary baby wash is free from suphates, pthalates and parabens like every other J n J product. It is clear which means no dyes. The bigger bottles come with a pump which means easy to use. We mums have to multitask all the time.... ain't it? Also the pump can be locked which would prevent your naughty munchkin from committing any mishaps!

Now why are not Johnson's products preservative free?

Preservatives are important. They are indispensable for the longevity of products. Suppose if a drop of water goes inside a bottle of shampoo/baby lotion, it would become contaminated if it does not have preservatives. Again that contaminated product when used on a baby would cause harm.
So they opt for a milder preservative Sodium benzoate. Now food products contain Sodium benzoate. So you can understand how mild it is.
Whatever Johnson's baby uses in their products are 100% safe for your baby. They have been researched over 100s of years and are the result of pure science as well as hard work. Ruling for 125 years is not easy!

All the ingredients are listed on the back and the products are absolutely safe and gentle for your baby. J n J does not hide anything from anyone. The products are 100%  scientifically tested and clinically proven mild. Do you read about the ingredients?  Do you #CHOOSEgentle for your baby?
