erbaviva Organic Baby Soap

Probably the mildest soap you will find, made with love and care to delicately nurture you or your baby’s tender skin. Erbaviva’s Baby Soap contains only the highest quality natural ingredients. Pure milk, honey and essential oils of lavender are blended together to enhance the creamy rich lather. This soap is particularly helpful for people of all ages who have sensitive skin.

Ingredients:
Olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, milk, honey, lavender essential oil.

This product is exceptionally great for people with sensitive skin. The purpose in reviewing this was for my kids. But once I read the ingredients I decided to also review it as a gentle skin cleanser as well. Which it does a very good job at. I have problematic skin. It is oily, breaks out, is sensitive. This bar not only served its purpose as an excellent mild baby cleanser, but it surpassed my expectations of a gentle, mild, soap for anyone with sensitive. Its perfect to wash my 6 year olds face as well. When she lets me that is. I also think its important to mention that not only is olive oil good for problematic skin, but honey is healing and anti-bacterial, while lavender is soothing. Its an excellent concoction for my face.

It is made nice too. Its a nice generous size. It doesn’t have melting, mushy qualities that some bars have. I love bar soaps for washing my babies. Theres 2 wild little things splish-splashin’ around in the tub, so when baths are going to be or need to be quick, I turn to the aid of a bar soap. Makes scrubbing them up quick and easy. They smelled yummy when they got out. I reviewed a sample version of this. But after using it, I plan on buying the full size. Its fantastic.

You can buy the full size that comes gift wrapped in the cotton satchel for $12 or you can buy the refill for $8.

Its almost to cute to use. 🙂

You can find this at bar at Erbaviva , Saffron Rouge, and select places that sell organics.

erbaviva Organic Baby Washbag

I’ll admit when I first got this sample in the mail, I wasn’t sure what it was. Beauty Mama had a bit of a beauty brain fart, and thought maybe that you throw it in the wash, when you wash the babies clothes. Not the case. This is to wash the babies 🙂 In my defense, there is nothing like this anywhere out. Its exclusive to erbaviva, and its unlike anything I’ve ever seen. I know, your saying, “excuses, excuses Beauty Mama, just read the description”. 🙂

The Organic Baby Washbag was developed as a cleansing product soft and natural enough for the newborn baby. Cleansing but not drying it was designed to maintain the necessary oils natural to skin and important for good hydration, while leaving baby clean and fresh. The Organic Baby Washbag is an unbleached muslin sachet, filled solely with herbal ingredients, exuding a delightful aroma. Contains no soap. Cleans beautifully without drying the skin. One sachet is placed in the child’s bath and gently rubbed on baby’s skin for a soft cleansing straight from nature.

Ingredients: Organic oatmeal, organic milk powder, organic lavender flowers, organic essential oils of lavender and mandarin. Filled into an unbleached cotton sachet.

Because it contains milk, its important to know that it is single use. I really enjoyed this product. And since it was in sample form, while it was a blast to use and my babies loved it, I was sad that I no longer had the scent of it lingering in my room. The smell was intoxicating, and I loved it. Theses aren’t some mass product baby product. They are sewn by hand, with love, for your little one

I really love all the erbaviva products I have tried. This is definitely one of my favorites. I love that it is all natural, smells divine, and most importantly was extremely child friendly. My 3 year old loved washing herself with it, while I enjoyed letting her, and not fretting about her using half a bottle of wash or letting a soap bar melt in the bath. Although it was pretty funny, she was wondering why I allowed her to use a bean bag in the bath. 🙂 I love that its USDA Organic, and the high standards that erbaviva has for their products. They also are not afraid of their labels. They put them right out in the open, because theres nothing to hide. They encourage you to. Not only do they make great products, they have the simplest, yet most adorable packaging. I love it. They also have amazing gift sets on their site. You couldn’t go wrong with an erbaviva gift set.

These sachets are fantastic. And they are a really great product to use on a newborn. super mild, non irritating, and soothing.
Its also great for adults with sensitive skin. Oatmeal and Lavender are very soothing. I would definitely take a bath with one of these, but erbaviva makes mommy bath products too so… 🙂

You can find these sachets at Erbaviva, and a few selective sites online that carry natural and organic products. Saffron Rouge, is one of them.

Hugs & Lip Gloss,
Beauty Mama

That being said. I really love this stuff. Here are the huge selling points for me:

-Baby wash, has a Foaming top, therefore using less product…also satisfies my 3 yr olds need to wash her own hair, independently, without the soap going everywhere.

-NUT FREE!!! My 3 yr old has a Nut allergy. While she has never had a reaction to almond oil or such nut oils in products, I really think the fact that they specifically left it out is awesome. Its literally allergy proof..No nuts, gluten, soy or Dairy. Awesome!

-Attention ALL people with sensitive skin. For fun, I decided to review this product in double duty form. The beauty mama love ANY thing that multi-tasks! I have been using the Baby Wash, as a gentle morning cleanser. It is spectacular! I have also been following up with the Baby Lotion. Between those 2 things, and my Korres Pomegranate Cleansing Mask, my face has literally, cleaned up, cleared up, and evened out, overnight. If it helps, you should know that I have skin that is picky. It is sensitive, oily, combo, breaks out. Yada Yada. This is excellent for my face, no break outs at all! I think the gentleness of it, is actually healing my face.

-While its not as easily accesible, it is afforadably priced. Its not a shell shock to me, because I pay good money for my baby products. I win in the aspect of concentation. All the baby products that I buy that are considerably more, are always extremely concentrated. So you need very little. So when it breaks down I end up spending the same, if not less, then what I would pay if I bought some cheap Johnson & Johnson garbage at the store. Its Available @Sephora and Lavanila.com Some of you lucky ducks who live near a Sephora can just pop on over! Even if you have to order online its still not a huge deal, shipping is quick. Besides, Mommy probably was going to order something from Sephora anyways, wasn’t she?!

-I own multiple natural baby care lines. All have their own unique thing about them. If you CRAVE, that baby smell. You know the smell. The Johnson smell. That newborn baby smell. This smells very similar, minus all the toxic things that come with anything Johnsons, Baby Magic, etc. It’s just a straight up baby smell. Not fruity, floral, etc. Just Baby. Very light. I also want to mention…that while I used it on the kids, and they stayed smelling Lavanila Baby lovely, when I used it on my face it was different. I smelled it at first. But then the smell died down. So if you are like Awesome! I want to use this on my face, but I don’t want to walk about smelling like a baby, you won’t! 🙂

The Baby Wash- Richly foaming, extra gentle, wash cleansed and softened my babies skin, and rinsed away easily.

The Baby Lotion- smooth, lightweight but moisturizing, quick absorbing, left my babies skin nice and soft

The Baby Butter- EXCELLENT for my babies little dry cheekies, and dry spots. Helped it significantly. Thicker then lotion, healing.

The Baby Bottom- Rich, Thick, Heals rashes very nicely. Soothes redness, and instantly relieves rashes.

Safe Baby Standards

Absolutely LOVE this stuff. Will definitely buy it again. My kiddos love it, and it left their skin soft, smooth, and smelling yummy!!

Hugs & Lip Gloss,
Beauty Mama
