Clean ingredients are gentle and free from skin-irritating ingredients. They are also always environmentally friendly and cruelty-free, with ingredients sustainably derived from plants or nontoxic synthetic sources. Clean ingredients are clinically tested by third parties for stability and efficacy.
Natural ingredients may be irritating or harmful to skin, may be sourced from endangered plants, animal by-products, or threatened ecosystems and the ingredient efficacy may be unpredictable.
The national Eczema Association will only grant a product the Seal of Acceptance if they are free from the ingredients on the Ecz-clusion list - as these ingredients are known irritants and allergens. For more information, click here.

A child’s skin barrier is still developing and can lose moisture more easily than adult skin. Barrier balms help protect the skin by creating a gentle layer that locks in hydration and shields delicate skin from irritation caused by dryness, drool, friction, cold weather, or frequent washing. Regular use can help keep skin soft, calm, and resilient.
Healthy skin depends on a strong barrier that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Ingredients like colloidal oatmeal, coconut oil, shea butter, mango butter, beeswax, and vitamin E help nourish the skin, support hydration, and reinforce the skin’s natural protective layer. These ingredients help soothe and protect dry or sensitive skin.
