When I First became MomI began to question the ingredients in everything I put on the baby. Unfortunately, there were no good answers to most of my questions. A product that was surprised to find that it had problematic ingredients was the dust for children.
The problem with the baby's dust
However, innocent, children's dust often has some hidden ingredients. Until recently companies like Johnson & Johnson used talcum powder as the main ingredient in their children's dust. The problem is that the talk is usually contaminated with the cancer that causes asbestos. , 57,000 lawsuits laterJ& J recently interrupted the talc for corn starch in their powder without talc.
Even with the new formulations even though there are still some issues for sensitive skin. There is an aroma which is associated with allergen disturbances and endocrine disruption. Or salicylicilate benzil which has a high risk of allergies and immunotoxicity … but only if it is in the form of dust.
When I had really little, I wanted personal care products that were also safe for my baby's skin. Thankfully there are natural powders for children and children's products there that are safe at the end of the baby.
Make your home made at home
I have found some good alternatives purchased in the store, like this organic by Eraorganics AND Pillow. However, I wanted to find a good DIY version. I doubted if I could do it, I would save money and be able to fix it.
Unlike some body care recipes that require a lot of effort before I find a recipe I want, this was relatively simple. Only a natural powder of an optional type and herb or essential oils.
Dusty ingredients for children
I was placed using arrow or organic corn of corn as base and added dust herb as chamomile AND kalends to calm the sore ends. Some recipes add some mixture of kaolin clay, baking soda or tapioca starch. I have also experimented by adding a few drops of chamomile essence And it also worked really well. Tea tree or lavender essential oil are good substitutes if you do not have chamomile.
I found it was easier to use when I stored it in a Sugar powder. I also pack your children's powder made at home with a recipe card on how to do more when giving this as a gift for children.

If you use chamomile flowers or calendulas, dust them into blender or coffee grinder (see note below for tips).

Mix the flowers of fine soil, or essential oil if you use, with nuts and store it in a glass jar, spice jar or sugar shaker for easy use.
You can add a few tablespoons of Sagittarius powder to the flower coffee grinder and essential oils. Mixing them together this way involves the ingredients and avoids accumulation. Just wait for the dust to be placed before you open the lid!
How to use children's powder
Baby dust is useful for more than just babies! Women have used it for decades as part of their skin routine. The body's dust helps absorb excess sweat and moisture in the skin. Also useful to keep the end of the baby dry to prevent diaper rash. And when adding soothing herbs can help the skin heal faster.
