A baby’s skin is fragile and requires gentle care to stay soft, hydrated, and healthy. Parents often wonder, when can you use lotion on baby safely. Generally, fragrance-free, hypoallergenic lotions can be introduced after the first few weeks, especially if the baby experiences dryness or irritation. Applying lotion after baths helps lock in moisture and supports the skin’s natural barrier. At Soteri Skin, we recommend choosing products with mild, nourishing ingredients that soothe and protect delicate skin without causing sensitivity. Regular, gentle moisturizing promotes comfort, prevents flakiness, and helps your baby’s skin remain smooth, balanced, and healthy every day.
