The bubble gum pink bottle and iconic Coppertone baby are American classics. But what's even more memorable is this sunscreen's powerful protection, which is gentle enough for baby and great for adults with sensitive skin. "I use this religiously on my kids and they have never had a sunburn ... it's so great, I always end up using this on myself," says one reader. Another says, "It moisturizes all day and does not irritate my skin or my children's skin. It also absorbs very well. It's just perfect."
Mustela's Bebe Shampoo is made from wheat, chamomile, and coconut oil extracts, which nip tangles in the bud and leave hair smooth and shiny. Readers agree that it's an amazing product for babies and moms. "I love this shampoo. It smells good and makes my hair feel baby soft," says one reader. Another, who originally bought it for her two toddlers, says, "After using it once on them, I decided to try it myself -- let's just say there is a bottle in both bathrooms now!"
Whether they're all-natural, unbelievably gentle, or easy on the purse strings, it can be hard to resist certain baby care products for your little one -- or yourself.
Sure, you can pretend that they're for baby, but once you've indulged in that yummy-smelling lotion or super-mild shampoo, deep down you know who's really going to enjoy using it. And, why shouldn't you? The best baby lotions, oils, and powders work well on moms, too. Isn't it smarter and more pennywise to share and share alike? Especially when some products that are intended for wee ones work better than what you've been paying a premium for in the "adult" aisles?
So go ahead and steal from your baby. Just because something is meant to calm or gently clean the littlest among us doesn't mean it can't work wonders on you, too. From rash cream to sunscreen, here are the seven baby care products you'll want to nab from your newborn.
