MooGoo Irritable Skin Balm

11th Jan 2012 marks a very special day. My beautiful baby girl's birthday. So you can imagine how important that very day was for me. It was a life changing experience which I would not trade for anything in the world.

When I saw her for the first time, a mother in me was born. I'm sure all the new mothers out there can relate to how I felt.

As a new mother, I didn't know a lot of things about taking care of a newborn. I choose not to have a confinement lady because I wanted to take care of MY baby. I did my research, read a lot and asked tons of questions.

After almost 2 months of being a mother, one of my main heartache is to see my baby's face plagued with rashes or what some will call prickly heat.

That triggered my obsession to find the quickest, safest and most effective cure for my baby. I learned that the baby skin's is very sensitive and steroid creams given by doctors will definitely
clear it up in a day or two but I didn't like the idea of the side effects (skin darkening, thinning of the skin...)

After doing my study and survey, I decided to try this cream by MooGoo called Irritable Skin Balm. The below is the product description taken from their website.

Product Description

Irritable Skin Balm 120g
Just because you or your children have a skin problem, it no longer means that steroid and chemical based ointments are your only option. This revolutionary cream that took over a year to formulate and license. It is for both sensitve & troubled skin.

Active Ingredients: Matricaria recutita (flower extract), Centella Asiatica (herb tincture), Sage Oil (dalmation), Aloe barbadensis (leaf juice).
Excipient Ingredients: Purified Water, Sweet Almond Oil, Emuslifying Wax, Olive Oil, Olive Squalene, Allantoin, Vitamin E.

This balm can be followed by our MSM Soothing Cream which is designed to keep easily irritated skin moist and supple.

So next time your practitioner suggests steroid creams, mention that there is now another option available in Malaysia, developed in Australia.
