    Hi,
    I use olive oil, almond oil , Himalaya Vitamin E oil , Jason Vitamin E oil and rotate them depending upon the weather. You can buy pure Vitamin Oil from whole foods.It makes skin very soft.Johnsons baby oild has chemicals which is not good for baby skin.
    Thanks

    Hi,

    I used figaro olive oil for my kid, but one of my cousin says that the skin color becomes dark due to figaro olive oil.

    I now started using olle messa oil, do not see much of the result as such.

    Any suggestions where the kid's skin color becomes fair??

    Thanks & Regards,
    Kellykim

    Hi Kellykim,

    Why you worry about colour of the skin, that too for a baby? Dont worry about the colour. It must be healthy, shinny and soft. For that you can use 'greenmoong dal or yellow moong dal flour' for bathing the baby. First apply oil all over the body and then use this flour and give bath. In due course you will get good skin colour.
    even we can also use that flour. If you want you can add 'vasanai powder' in that which will give good smell.

    My son is 10 months old and I message him with coconut oil both on the body as well as the hair.But I am thinking of switching to olive oil as I heard it is even better.

    massage oil

    I was curious to know what is the best oil for babies under 1 yr when it comes to body massage.Right now I use baby oil but I feel its not the best.I 've heard of almond oil, backhome we used mustard oil but the smell is little overwhelming, Any suggestion from experienced ladies?. Thanks in advance
