I used the scalp cream to get rid of the cradle cap which worked wonders, and now use the shampoo and the body wash to maintain... I find they work well, but the main reason I love them is the smell!!!
bi-carb soda make into a paste with water put on scalp leave for a few minutes and wash off worked wonders for ds rub it very gently when on its easier to do in the bath a bit less messy that way
I have been using the scalp cream. DS developed cradle cap at about 4months, and I tried the oil, brushing, shampooing etc but it kept getting worse. It was really thick and crusty on the top of his head so I started using the moogoo scalp cream morning and night as well as shampooing everyday and he's almost completely free of it now.
Willow - Eva has this horrible dry, white cradle cap that had even spread to her eye brows. This is what I have done: Rubbed almond oil into her scalp at the start of each day, then I gently picked her scalp whilst feeding her throughout the day (yes gross). At the end of the day I washed her head and gently rubbed the scalp with a face washer. I had to do this for 3 days in a row and so far the real thick cradle cap has not come back for over a week.
Eva also has very dry skin and I have been using a bath oil called Grahams Bath Oil and then mositurise her up with QV dry skin (honestly the only lotion that has worked).
BTW - Eva's milk pimples cleared up only 2 weeks ago
HTH..goodluck hun
Willow, this sounds exactly what DS2 has. TBH it reeks!!!! I've bought MooGoo, but it's just not fixing it. DS2 also had the same all over skin issues. A week ago he looked like a little lizard - he had dry skin all over his face. People were looking at him like he was a little freak. I slathered his face in Sorbolene (after trying the MooGoo) and it's working wonders. It's a petroleum product though, but it's working.
As for his cradle cap, nothing is budging it. I went and bought some QV wash and moistuiser and that's not doing anything either. The CCap just smells and looks terrible. I'd be interested to try the conditioner, but I've just tried so many things. DS1 never had any of these issues, they must just have such different skin!
I'm ereally interested to keep up with this thread to see what else comes of it. I might stop off at the chemist tomorrow and see what they recommend. I'm at a loss too.
My DD had really thick bad crusty smelly cradle cap and I brought the moogoo scalp cream that fixed it up within a matter of days, all gone.
I just applied it morning and night then let her head soak in the bath and once it was soggy gently wiped with a face washer and it just came right off.
