Next time you’re standing in one of those super ginormous  baby stores trying to pick between which onesie tri-pack to buy for that baby shower you’re attending this weekend, put down the onesie pack and walk away.  Let’s face it, the new mommy will get plenty of those onesie packs for their baby.  Now if you really want to be thoughtful about what to give a new mother and baby then think no more, I have your answer…

All-natural body care fit for the new mommy, new baby and heck, even new dad! You see, there’s a reason why consumers (namely, new parents) have become conscientious about the soaps, lotions and various creams that they’re purchasing for their family.  There’s a definite growing demand and appreciation among today’s parents who seek out natural and organic products for their child.  Okay, so what’s a gift-giver to offer up in order to keep up with this proven consumer trend?  Here is the number one rated body care product that every new mother will love for their new baby:

A Calendula-based Salve:  The term “salve” might resonate more with ol’ granny than it does with you, but there’s a reason why your granny is so wise!  Salves are making a serious comeback in the body care and cosmetic marketplace (particularly when it comes to baby products since they treat diaper rash and child skin irritation so terrifically).  Salves are serious moisturizer/healer combos!  A good salve will be able to treat your entire body (from dry elbows to diaper rashes) and your entire family can use it (one jar should do it all).  Now, “Calendula” a.k.a. “pot marigold” has long been praised by the holistic community for its amazing healing properties (anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal–just to name a few) .  So it’s no surprise that many new baby products have begun to add this flower extract into their mix.  But if there’s one piece of advice that I can offer in this department, it’s to not be deceived by imitators.  You must seek out products that use the pure and organic form of this essential oil.  FYI, many over-commercialized or under-developed product “wanna-bes” use less concentrated and inferior Calendula blends (so ultimately you’re buying an inferior product without the optimum healing properties that true Calendula can produce).  So, don’t go out and buy just any Calendula salve for the baby gift.

Do your research and…well heck, I’ve already done the research and here it is….G.B. Proudfoot’s Original Calendula Super Salve ($12.99) https://www.gbproudfoots.com/products-page/all-product-category/original-organic-calendula-super-salve-4-oz-net-wt.  This stuff is splendid.  It not only talks the talk but it also walks the walk.  It smells beautifully relaxing and really does the trick for any dry or irritated skin issues.  Also, you can’t argue with the price (especially since it’ll be the gift that every new mom will love using on baby and themselves (did I mention it’s great on stretch marks?).  Additionally, G.B. Proudfoot’s Natural Body Care www.gbproudfoots.com ships throughout the U.S. (and Canada too) and they even have some pretty cute gift wrap options for those of us who just want to click and sigh a breath of relief that their baby gift dilemma has been settled!  Thank me later!  Okay, you’re welcome! 😉
