Top 9 Baby Lotions and Baby Bath Products

By Robin Elise Weiss, LCCE, About.com

There are a ton of products out there to bathe your baby in - from baby oil and baby lotion to spritz and bubble bath. Here are some of my favorites that just smell like a baby to me.

1. Angel Baby Lotion

Delightfully scented baby lotion that goes in without being greasy. It also is chemical free, making it safe for your baby's skin and system. The lovely orange/vanilla combination is so nice, it will make you smile every time you smell your baby.

2. Burt's Bee Baby Shampoo Bar

This is a great product, particularly for washing hair on slippery babies. This also gives you control so you don't have liquids running in baby's eyes. I like that a lot. It does a great job at getting baby clean. The smell? It's awesome. This is one of my favorite products for babies.

The Noodle & Boo Baby Skin Care line is a great set of products that treat your baby's skin like a baby rather than with adult like products. The scents are gentle and the packaging is parent friendly.

4. California Baby Diaper Area Wash

This spray/spritz is used for diaper changes. It helps cleanse a sensitive area in a non-burning fashion. It also smells really nice. I use this in addition to regular or cloth baby wipes.

5. Aveeno Baby Fragrance Free Lotion

If you prefer a nice daily lotion to use on your baby that is fragrance free, I really like the Aveeno Baby lotion. You can use it daily without baby getting greasy and it feels very nice on their skin.

7. Johnson's Baby Cream

This old favorite has a slightly new twist. I like the texture of this baby lotion better than the original baby lotion by Johnson's. This has a light smell and goes on very smoothly. Great for daily use.

8. California Baby Massage Oil: Overtired & Cranky

This handy massage oil comes in a pump form, with just a touch of aromatherapy to help calm you. While California Baby has many flavors, this one is our favorite. It's a great idea for a baby shower gift and helps make baby massage quick and easy to ensure it gets incorporated into diaper changes or bath time.

9. Mustela Hydra Bebe Baby Lotion

Mustela is famous for their baby porducts. This lotion is very popular. It has a very strong scent which can be a bit much if you are sensitive to smells or have severe allergies, for everyone else, they describe it as awesome!
