Tested by mum Vicki Lee for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
Lovely products. Really love the design and smell. Easy to use with the pop-open lid.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
Quick to grab and open, so no messing around with hard to open bottles.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
Perfect. Does not need changing.
Tested by mum Jane Hobday for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
I really liked the Boots Baby Sensitive Skincare Range - I found it to be very delicate on my baby's skin - I never noticed any reaction to it, like I have with other products before. It has no odour to it and yet baby smells nice and fresh after a bath with it. I didn't notice that my baby got any irritation from it in his eyes either.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
As a range of skincare products, I suppose the way it makes life easier is that Boots is accessible and convenient and I can really trust these products knowing that they don't irritate my baby's skin. I also felt they lasted a long time as you only need a little bit to go quite far.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
The only thing I would change would be perhaps to have more moisturising elements to the bath products so that when you get baby out, that he/she is really soft. I felt they were good for cleaning, but I still needed to apply oil or cream afterwards.
Tested by mum Faye Jones for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
We really enjoyed using this range in the bath and loved the different products and the different styles they came in, such as there was a body lotion as well as a thicker nappy cream. So there wasn’t just one product that was expected to be used on all areas.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
These products made our lives easier as my daughter has a quite sensitive skin and as these were kind and gentle on her skin and have numerous products to use in conjunction with each other and no harsh smells that would inflame her skin, but left it soft to touch and comfortable for her.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
There isn’t anything I would change about this range as the price point is great and the products are all simple to use without any side effects for children with sensitive skin which we love as my daughter flares up to some harsher items on the market
Tested by dad Richard Barnes for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow parent?
A great range of high quality toiletries, easy to use and apply. Easy to hold bottles. No tears shampoo means you can use it and not worry about where the lather goes. Sensitive, so able to use on all skin types. No unpleasant odours so ideal for girls or boys.
How does this product make your life easier as a dad?
It provides a complete range of toiletries you need for your little ones to keep them clean and pampered. Saves time in the bathroom and while changing.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
Better able to differentiate between some of the products when looking at them, most all come in a white bottle and only the wording is different, so it is easy to make a mistake and pick up the wrong product when you’re in a hurry.
Tested by mum Melissa Newton for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
I really liked Boots Baby Sensitive Skincare Range. My little one suffers with eczema so apart from using Oilatum I didn't use any other product until I read on the bottles it was great for eczema prone skin. There wasn't manner bubbles which proved that the products were mild and there was no smell at all. I thought if you get everything for £2, this was fantastic value. The products help to keep my little ones eczema at bay which was brilliant.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
It’s great that you can get all the products at once which are all great for eczema prone skin. Most of the time you just get the cream and the bath lotion so it was great to see a moisturiser, bath wash, and oil in the package too. This would mean I wouldn't have to search the shelves of a store to find everything I need as this is all available in the package.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
I would probably add a nice smell to the product. I like to have a nice smelling baby and bathroom. I also thought the packaging was quite plain. Maybe have something a bit more colourful so you can tell which bottle is which without having to look at the label.
Tested by mum Nancy Paterson for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
I loved the Boots Baby Sensitive Skincare Range and was pleasantly surprised at how good they were. The bottles don't look very exciting, they're all white with a simple label. The moisturising bath is gentle and is fragrance and colour free. It left my baby's skin feeling extra soft and smooth and was also loved by me and my other daughter! The body wash is fab too and the moisturising creams are perfect for sensitive skins.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
They are gentle to my family's sensitive skin and we all enjoyed trying out the different products. They're really good value for money and just as good as more expensive branded products. I would definitely recommend them.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
I would make the packaging look more interesting! A clear bottle would be much better and a slightly more inspiring label. The products themselves are much better quality than the packaging implies.
Tested by mum Elizabeth Emmanuel for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
Boots Baby Sensitive Skincare Range is a good basic range for everyday use. The products were mild and gentle on my baby's skin and caused no irritation. They were mildly fragranced and the shampoo left my baby's hair lovely and soft. They are good products to have in the bathroom. The moisturising cream was especially good when my baby's skin was a little dry.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
Good basic range for sensitive skin. I will be using this regularly on my little one.
Tested by mum Carmen Bell for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
I really like using this range with my little one. This range did not disappoint. The wash and shampoo were very mild and caused no eye irritation. The moisturising cream did a good job of hydrating my baby's skin.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
This is a range I would use again. I also trust the brand and frequently use their products for my own dry skin.
Tested by mum Lucy Bamford for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
Yes, all of the Boots products tested are very good on my baby's sensitive skin.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
This product takes the worry out of caring for sensitive skin, leaving it well-moisturised and clean.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
The product would be easier to use with a pump dispenser.
