When your baby suffers from stubborn cradle cap scales on the scalp, this can cause the necessary unrest and concern. The fragile baby skin requires an extremely mild approach, where aggressive methods or irritating substances can only worsen the situation. Drs Leenarts Cradle cap ointment offers mild and responsible support here. This greasy, easily spreadable ointment has been specially developed to soften the scales in a mild way, so that you can subsequently remove them without irritation. As your trusted health partner, VitAdvice offers you a practical solution for the daily care of the little ones in the family.

Key benefits

• Targeted care: Supports the care and hydration of the sensitive scalp with cradle cap.
• Effective scale removal: Helps to effectively soften cradle cap scales, making them easy to release.
• Optimal tolerance: Formulated without perfume and irritating ingredients to minimise the chance of skin reactions.
• Complete delivery: Includes a free fine hair comb to gently and safely comb the loosened scales out of the hair.

How it works

The formula of Drs Leenarts Cradle cap ointment is carefully composed with ingredients that respect and protect the skin barrier. Through the combination of greasy components such as petroleum jelly and specific softeners such as decyl oleate, the dry cradle cap scales are intensively hydrated and loosened from the underlying scalp. This mechanical process of softening ensures that you can remove the scales without having to rub hard or damage the skin with the included comb. This contributes to maintaining a calm and healthy baby skin.

Composition

Ingredients

Petrolatum (petroleum jelly, skin protector), Decyl oleate (Cetiol V, softens scales), Isopropyl myristate (skin protector, improves spreadability), Paraffinum liquidum (stabiliser, skin protector), Pentaerythrityl distearate (stabiliser, skin protector), Ceteareth-20 (stabiliser)

Use & Dosage

Does your baby under 6 months suffer from cradle cap? Then wait before using the Cradle cap ointment. At this age, cradle cap usually disappears spontaneously. Also, the skin at this young age is still very sensitive.

Our advice
Use the Cradle cap ointment if your child is older than 6 months, and preferably not earlier. Why? Babies younger than 6 months have a very sensitive and fragile skin. When you remove cradle cap scales all at once, this can sometimes lead to redness and irritation of the skin. Because cradle cap goes away by itself in most cases, it is wise to wait a while first anyway.

Apply the ointment to the scalp and let it soak in for a few hours. Ensure that the scales on the scalp are well softened, so that you can easily remove them with the included hair comb. After this, you can wash your child's hair so that it is no longer so greasy.
