Bubble bath for very sensitive skin

[snowchickie79]

DD loves bubbles and the only way I can get her in the bath at the moment without a fight is to put in bubbles however she has very very sensitive skin to the point where I cannot change our laundry detergent and she does not have any soap used on her so no shampoo - she gets this from me unfortunately.

I'm wondering if anyone can suggest a bubble bath which might be ok with her skin? I've used a standard bubble bath this past week just to keep her happy but her skin has flared up on her back, shoulder blades and around her hips under her nappy line so I've stopped again but she is asking me for bubbles.. My only alternative is giving her a shower which again she loves but I'd rather give her baths as she can stay in their longer than a running shower.

Suggestions are welcomed..

i use one from the health food shop, but not often as it still dried my DD2 skin out and we get ezcema flareups, cant remember the name though

We use the Organic Care Shampoo and body wash and use it in the bath for bubbles (as well as their hair!). Both mine are prone to eczema and it has been fine. Very mild with no nasty petrochems or SLS etc. Or else you could try Gaia but it's not quite as bubbly.

Burt's Bees makes a baby bubble bath which is mild. DS has had eczema in the past, but hasn't reacted to this one.

I just squeeze a little Gaia shampoo or body wash in when running the bath, awesome bubbles!

The aveeno range is great! And dermaveen too!

Yes I use Gaia here too. It has no nasties in it. makes great bubbles and smells awesome

we use jurlique here. might be worth a try as it has chamomile in it...

i was going to say Gaia as well, they're good for sensitive skin too

We use "enviro care" brand bubble bath - DS has eczema and it doesn't seem to bother him when we use this one. We got it from our local health food shop where I also get our MooGoo products - unfortunately MooGoo don't do bubble bath otherwise I'd be using that.

whatever you buy, read the INGREDIENTS box on the back.

Perfume
SLS (cheap foaming agent)
parabens
they are the main contenders for aggravating skin like your dd's.

so avoid products, with those words (or parfum) in the ingredients list

Miessence
burt's bees'
cherub's rub (i found that at a shop called Eco-lateral, and i've seen it online too)

organic care in the supermarket, i'm careful with that one, after discovering so much perfume, in their "soap on tap" (the green tea one) that i coudln't use it - could not bear to have it in the house, was SO overpoweringly strong. but have no problem with their hair products. And their detangler for kids is very full of perfume too. so i think that company is a "mixed bag".

maybe google "organic bubblebath australia" and see what you get?

i love the SUKIN range, but haven't noticed a bubblebath. Also MOO GOO.

I wash us with goat's milk soap, no colour, no perfume, very simple (much cheaper, buying the no name goats milk soap at the health food shop, 10 for $12)

Once i found out the main irritant culprits, i went thru the bathroom cabinet adn threw out TWO bins of products. SO MUCH of what i had (at that time), had parabens, perfume, SLS in them. The difference has been amazing. well worth doing.

i just did the google thang (with "organic bubble bath") and the first one in the google list was ORGANICS AUSTRALIA ONLINE and the first page had about six diff options, so there you go, won't be hard (burt's bees was in the list, as was Cherub's Rub).
