Sebamed Baby Lip Balm, 4.8 gm

Sebamed Baby Lip Balm is formulated at pH 5.5 - the same slightly acidic pH as the human skin's natural acid mantle - to protect and moisturize the delicate lip skin of infants and young children without disrupting the developing skin barrier. Sebamed's commitment to pH 5.5 in all its baby products reflects the scientific understanding that the acid mantle is the baby's primary skin defense mechanism, and that products maintaining this pH support rather than compromise skin health from the earliest days of life.

Benefits

• The pH 5.5 formula is scientifically formulated to match the baby's natural skin surface pH, ensuring that application of the lip balm does not disrupt the acid mantle that acts as a microbial and chemical barrier for the delicate newborn skin
• Fragrance-free formulation eliminates the sensitization risk of fragranced baby products - the lip area is particularly sensitive to contact allergens because it is adjacent to the mouth and in frequent contact with hands and pacifiers
• Protects baby lip skin from the environmental drying factors that cause chapping - cold air, indoor heating, and the wetness of drooling and feeding that repeated wets and dries the lip skin
• Provides the emollient moisture that baby lip skin needs as it develops its own lipid barrier - the lip skin lacks sebaceous glands and requires external emollient support
• The compact size fits easily in a nappy bag or pocket for application whenever the baby's lips appear dry, particularly during winter months or in air-conditioned environments

How to Use

• Apply a small amount to the baby's lips whenever they appear dry or chapped
• Gently smooth onto the lips with a clean fingertip
• Apply before going outdoors in cold or windy weather
• Apply at night before sleep for ongoing lip protection
• Safe for use from birth
• Ensure the balm remains in good condition - do not use if texture or smell changes significantly
• Keep out of reach of older children who may put the balm in their mouth
