    mustella, moogoo, gaia, ???

    so when DD was born we used mustella on her... hadnt herd of it but got given all of the products full sized when i was at the baby shower show on the circle so used it becasue i had it

    then i moved onto GAIA because its natural and smells nice

    basically im avoiding J&J like the plague given the crud thats in it....

    DD has got excema on her chin and on her neck, from all of the drool and the impossible task of keeping it dry 24/7.....

    so on the recommendation of the gorgeous Em i got the moogoo excema cream but im now wondering if its "softer" on DD's skin than the gaia would be and if i should convert her bath stuff over??

    any help would be much appreciated!

    I use moogoo wash and moisturiser on dd and she drools 24/7, soaks a bib in a couple of hours. She's never had drool rash, or nappy rash or cradle cap. Could be coincidence, but I loove moogoo!

    I use pitta patta, thats gorgeous stuff too. I cant stand cruddy J&J either...............i mean the stuff gets grease off DH's hands, thats saying ALOT!! Pitta patta is like gaia but i feel thats softer too, so it must be like moogoo. I dont have any moogoo advice, just talking really lol

    The Moogoo MSM cream is excellent, as is the shampoo, conditioner and bodywash. I use the bodywash for me.
    Paw Paw ointment/cream is also very good for dribble rash.

    I am not sure if it would be softer I guess you'd need to research into the different ingredients used in both companies products.

    FWIW after 6 weeks of this blasted reoccuring nappy rash type thing I am considering ditching all the pharmacy stuff and trying their bum cream (not the MSN cream) as the medicated creams seem to be doing nothing.

    crupet if you send them an email, they'll generally post you some samples.
    Not sure how sensitive your DD is, but I tried moogoo after everybody's recommendations and it was just awful for me. I don't deal well with gaia either.

    I've never heard about moogoo - will definately look into it.

    I have used Aromababy on DS since he was born. I LOVE their barrier balm. It is all natural. DS has mild excema. I used their other products when DS was a baby but haven't stopped with the barrier balm. Don't know if anything will come close.
