We have raved about little me before, but as it's Green Week on ThinkBaby, we thought we'd look at their latest ranges.
Put together by beauty expert Jo Sinclair and inspired by her first child, Scarlett, the little me range includes balms, creams, bubble bath and massage oils to suit different moods.
Sinclair has worked with renowned aromatherapist Glenda Taylor (co-author of 'The Happy Baby'), to create items that don't just smell nice, but have great well-being properties too.
Both agreed it was also important that the oils and other ingredients were organic, to make the best possible skincare products for a new baby's skin.
Different oils for different moods
Using different oils at different times of the day can really enhance a mood, as any fan of essential oils knows. Thus, Glenda Taylor has mixed lively mandarin and tangerine in the uplifting, Playtime Fun products, and soothing lavendar and dill in the Sleepy Head range.
The Pamper Me mix of Neroli, rose and mandarin has a more relaxing effect and is great for times when you might want to share a baby massage with your child.
The Helping Hand all-in-one balm uses chamomile alongside jojoba, sunflower seed and olive oils, for an all-round cream ideal for dried skin, irritations, sore lips and even cradle cap.
The new Moisture Babies range
A mix of cleansing lavender and healing chamomile has been developed as one of the newer ranges in the collection, which helps retain or re-establish a baby's natural skin moisture.
Chill winds, central heating, and our desire to give our babies a relaxing bath as part of a (usually) daily bedtime routine, all mean that precious moisture can be lost. With Moisture Babies' bath soak, body wash, hair wash and body cream, you can make bathtime a kinder experience for your baby's little body!
Where, when and how much?
Happily, you don't have to pay spa prices for the little me range.
Boots stock their products exclusively, and thus they retail for high street prices. Individual pots start at £1.99 and the highest price is the Sleepyhead Gift Set for £9.99.
