Care Tips & FAQs for Baby Skin & Hair Care

Practical, gentle newborn care tips for new parents. Maaiee blends pure cow milk ghee with organic Ayurvedic botanicals to nourish, protect and support delicate baby skin. Below are simple routines, safe usage guidance and trusted answers parents ask most.

Quick Care Routine (0–12 months)

  • Daily gentle cleanse: Use a pH-balanced baby wash; avoid excessive washing.
  • After-bath care: Apply a thin layer of lotion on slightly damp skin to lock in moisture.
  • For dry patches: Apply a slightly thicker layer of lotion at night to support overnight hydration.

Newborn Skin Care: DOs & DON'Ts

  • DO keep baths short (5–7 minutes) with lukewarm water.
  • DO moisturize immediately after bath.
  • DO choose gentle, fragrance-free, pH-balanced formulas.
  • DON'T scrub peeling newborn skin — it sheds naturally.
  • DON'T over-bathe; 3–4 times a week is enough for very young babies.
  • DON'T use adult creams, talc powders or strongly scented products.

How to Use Maaiee Baby Lotion & Baby Wash

Baby Wash: Take a small amount of Ayur-Ghrita Pro-Vita B5 Wash, lather it gently in your palms and apply on your baby’s wet hair or body. Massage softly and rinse well with lukewarm water.

Baby Lotion: Apply a thin, even layer after bath while the skin is slightly damp. For dry patches, apply a slightly thicker layer of lotion at night to support overnight hydration.

Newborns: Use very small amounts and avoid heavy layering, especially around the face.
