Diaper Rash? No More!

Reply

Tender Defender for Baby. Diaper Rash.Tender Defender was crafted for babies, specifically for diaper rash! Babies are our mission. Everything about the formulation was created with babies’ most sensitive skin in mind: the level of concentration of the aloe gel, the non-photosensitizing oils, the combination of essential oils, and the overall cloth diaper-safe formulation.

What makes Tender Defender so special? It’s part of a patent pending new approach to diaper rash treatment. Tender Defender contains botanical sources of essential fatty acids such as omega-3 and omega-6 that human bodies cannot produce for themselves but are absolutely necessary for skin to heal itself. For the mildest diaper rash, Tender Defender can be used on its own. For moderate to severe diaper rash, it is used beneath barrier creams to supply skin with the botanical nutrients it needs to support healing. The barrier cream is applied after Tender Defender has dried completely. The combination of the Tender Defender base coat and barrier cream top coat gives skin the nutrients it needs and protects from further environmental irritation.

Diaper rash is the primary use for Tender Defender on babies. But parents have also also found it useful for: dry skin, cradle cap or other forms of seborrhea, heat rash, baby acne, eczema, intertrigo and teething rash, chafing, contact dermatitis, and other skin issues.*

I received The Tender Defender in my bluum box and it couldn’t have come at a better time. My little one was suffering from the worst diaper rash I had ever seen, and after using several different products the diaper rash was only getting worse!! I put ONE application of the Tender Defender on her overnight and the next morning the diaper rash was almost gone. One more morning application and by lunch time the rash was ALL GONE! –Evelyn R.

This botanical, aloe based gel takes diaper rash prevention and treatment to a new level. Providing a layer of protection while letting your baby’s bottom breathe, Aloe Baby helps to eliminate the chance of bacteria without the use of harsh chemicals. Aloe Baby Tender Defender is chock full of gentle botanicals perfect for tender skin. –Max

My son had some diaper rash we believe related to the tooth he had cut that day. I put it on at bedtime with nothing else (no barrier cream) just to test and the rash was nearly completely gone by morning. –Tina K.

Not only great for diaper rash, but also for good to help heal all of the boo-boo’s of toddlerhood. This is such a great product. I had never heard of this before, but I’m so glad that I know about it now! –Laurie

Seemed to really help my daughter’s diaper rash and it smells gorgeous. Lovely stuff! Glad I got the sample [Travel Pack]. The diaper rash seemed to resolve much more quickly than without the gel. –Jana

My daughter’s diaper rash improved immediately. I also love the way she smells when we cuddle…I expected something more like a Desitin. But then later figured out that that was the way it was supposed to be, as opposed by something like Desitin. Thanks for a great product and I wish you the best!  –California Mommy

It’s a great product and works amazing on my 6 month old! We have had diaper problems before and this stuff gets it away quickly! –Helen

I like that it’s very gentle on baby’s soft skin and that it works under barrier creams. I hadn’t found anything that works well on my son, but this on shows promise! –Lisa

These Travel Packs are the perfect fit, and should have a home in everyone’s diaper bag! –Jill

Tender Defender goes on your baby’s skin as a first step, acting as a base coat and providing a healing layer before you apply any additional ointment. –Nicole

I put ONE application of the Tender Defender on her overnight and the next morning the diaper rash was almost gone. One more morning application and by lunch time the rash was ALL GONE! –Evelyn R.

Your product was recommended to me by Stephanie M. who owns our local cloth diaper store. My daughter had a diaper rash for about a week and a half, and we were going to take her to the doctor if something didn’t help. My husband got it on Friday from the store and we started using it, along with the same diaper rash cream we’d been using. By Friday night, I had decided I was going to take her to the doctor Saturday morning. When she woke up on Saturday and I went to change her, her rash was almost gone, and by Saturday evening, there was no sign of it. My husband and I are super impressed and will be telling everyone about Tender Defender. Thanks for making such a great product! –Lisa K.

My little one has very sensitive skin and is prone to occasional, sometime severe, diaper rash. Nothing has worked as well as this does bringing her quick and complete rash relief. –Angela I.

Reviews: Skin Healing for Older Children/Adults

Reviews? We’re thrilled to share! See what people are saying about using Tender Defender for older children and adults on Facebook, Amazon.com, and other outlets:

Tender Defender is better than a pain patch! My husband is bedridden and has a lot of sores on his bottom. Tender Defender has made it so much better that he doesn’t need his pain patch for those anymore. Thank you! –H.

I got this as part of the beta [testing] program, and we used used it on my 3 year old’s chronic eczema, for which the doctor had prescribed steroids. It turned his skin from scabby to clear over the period of a week. Great stuff! –David G.

This product is amazing! I was sick for a week and my nose was red and in pain. I tried everything, Vaseline, lotions, even chapstick but my nose was still scaly and killing me. As soon as I tried the Tender Defender my nose started to feel better. It was so soothing and within a day my bright red nose was healing. I no longer have a red nose but I’m still using the gel to keep my elbows smooth. It’s fantastic! –Lindsay P.

This product is amazing on the itchy, reddened patches on my hands. I am getting a rapid response to using it just like you would for a baby with diaper rash. I put it on and let it dry, then use the cream I got from the doctor. Finally, some relief! –Emma D.

I had this weird allergic reaction to a mango – apparently the skin of a mango has the same oil as poison ivy. My face and lips are now super itchy and nice and swollen. I put Tender Defender on it and it stopped itching and feels great now!!!!!!!!!! I’m not even going to take more Benadryl b/c it’s messing with my milk supply and the TD feels so good. –Lauren L.

I had an allergic reaction to my fake nails so I applied Tender defender to help heal my sore hands. It worked great! It seems to help soothe and heal a variety of rashes, dry skin and even allergic reactions too. Great stuff! I need to purchase a case of it for summer bug bites and sunburns. My friends all use it too. Great product….a definite MUST!!! –G.G.

I used the product on a skin irration on my 12 year old. She had very irrated skin due to an over-use of bandaid/medical tape to keep an area covered and protected. She said it immediately soothed her discomfort. I put it on a bad sunburn on my neck. Again, I experienced immediate reflief. Great Stuff! –J.G.

Anyone who has ever had cold sores knows how painful they can be. I use Tender Defender on cold sores. It promotes healing and soothes the pain. My cold sore seemed to heal a lot faster than usual. I also use it after working in the garden, it’s great for sunburns, chapped or wind-burned skin. A little bit goes a long ways and I love the fresh herbal scent. It works great! Thanks Tender Defender! I couldn’t be without it! –Barbara M.

Used it for jock itch, and it did a great job! It was gone in a couple days. My wife uses it for her calluses and cracked dry feet. Keeps them from cracking. She rubs it in her hands. Keeps her hands nice and moist too. And she put it on two sores…on her feet, and Tender Defender took care of it. –B.

My grandson kept asking me to scratch his back. After about the third time, I applied Aloe Baby to his entire back. He never asked me to scratch it again as the itching was gone! –Beverly S.

This product is FANTASTIC! My daughter Emily broke her arm last month (she is 8 yrs old). Her cast was irritating her skin around the edge of the cast, almost wearing a blister in one spot. I put some Tender Defender on the area. It did not sting at all…she said it cooled the irritated area & made it feel better! The next day it looked less inflamed & was not as sore. I also put some on my hands, which are constantly dry, chapped, & often crack & bleed due to repeated daily handwashing. This soothed, smoothed & healed my hands better than anything else I have tried. Thank you for such a fabulous product! –Stacy R.

We would love to have your review as well! Please talk back to us! Or share your review on Facebook or Amazon.com.

Next Chapter for Aloe Baby

It’s official: Aloe Baby is going to be a big sister! That precious girl who adorns our company logo, for whom Tender Defender was created and the company was founded? If all goes well, she will be having a little brother in December or January!

Here at Aloe Baby, we’ve already been impacted significantly by this wonderful event. As CEO and Momma to our adorable Aloe Baby, I’ve been extremely sick with this pregnancy. My severe nausea has effected our ability to engage in marketing events and move our product into more brick & mortars, so it has slowed our progress somewhat. But as we navigate the medical screenings and monitor the little guy’s development, it also helps us remember what’s most important: good health.

After all, that’s what Aloe Baby was founded for: providing a well-researched, natural, botanical product to support skin healing.

Last weekend, we spent some time at a local Mom-2-Mom sale, where we met some terrific people. Laughter: we enjoyed a lot of that! But we also had some amazingly uplifting conversations as we connected with people of all ages who were experiencing myriad skin challenges. Our Travel Packs were a huge hit as folks were eager to try Tender Defender to see how it would work for them. We’re excited to see many of these kindred spirits “liking” us on Facebook, and we look forward to having them add to the conversation there (or here) about how Tender Defender works to support their families’ skin health.

We’re so excited that our little Aloe Baby is going to have a baby brother, and we welcome thoughts and prayers for good health! We will be sending out an announcement to folks on our mailing list and posting one on our Facebook page. Our announcement will have a celebratory coupon code for the largest-ever discount at our own online store. Find the coupon code on Facebook or join our mailing list for future discount codes. Our deepest hope is that Tender Defender can support your family’s good skin health!

Aloe Baby Rises to (Mass)Challenge

Press Release        ****For Immediate Release****

Local Start-Up ALOE BABY Rises to (Mass)Challenge

Grass Lake, Michigan, May 10, 2012: Aloe Baby, LLC of Grass Lake, Michigan, has made the first cut in the 2012 MassChallenge entrepreneurial competition based in Boston, Massachusetts. MassChallenge is a business accelerator for innovative start-up companies around the world. Now entering its third year, MassChallenge has attracted thousands of entrants  and has reduced this year’s competitive field of 1237 competitors from 35 countries to a short list of 300, all of whom are invited to Boston to give 20-minute pitches to a panel of judges.

Aloe Baby, LLC is one of the 300 semifinalists. Formed in December 2011, Aloe Baby is the brainchild of former education professor, Melissa Mercer-Tachick. Her daughter suffered from diaper rash for three months before she crafted a new (patent pending) solution for wound care: the use of a bio-active, botanical gel that is air dried before barrier creams are used. Dr. Mercer-Tachick explains:

“I knew that my daughter was getting the best possible care, yet medical science was not able to heal her diaper rash. Barrier creams like Desitin are great at keeping the diaper environment away from skin, but they are very limited in their ability to help support skin healing. Any parent who has ever had stubborn diaper rash can tell you that. I wanted to create a product that would be used under barrier creams: a bioactive, botanical blend that would provide phytonutrients that skin needs to heal. It turns out that this is a patentable idea, and so we have filed a provisional patent. I used the research skills I honed throughout my professional career to comb the scientific and medical literatures and find the very best botanicals for the job. My ingredients had to be natural and had to be the highest quality. My baby deserved nothing less.”

Aloe Baby’s product is called Tender Defender. The formulation contains concentrated aloe—which they believe is unique in the U.S. market—apricot kernel and rosehip seed oils, and a blend of essential oils. Mercer-Tachick is exacting in her ingredient selection. For example, she chose a specific chemotype of niaouli essential oil that contains significantly less cineole, an irritating component common to that family of plants. Mercer-Tachick worked closely with an expert in the essential oils field to finalize the formulation. Manufacturing and packaging were done by local companies Reforma Group of Southfield and Xela Pack of Bridgewater, Michigan.

Aloe Baby, LLC isn’t just a company with a pretty face. It is a company that embraces social, environmental, and economic responsibility. Aloe Baby plans to support social causes when it becomes profitable. Mercer-Tachick notes, “’Diaper need’ is a phenomenon that plagues millions of children in the country. When parents can’t afford to purchase enough diapers for their children, those babies are stuck in dirty diapers far longer than they should be. This can give rise to terrible diaper rash problems. These kids deserve not only the number of diaper changes they need, but also products that will help support skin healing as they recover. Aloe Baby is committed to supporting ‘diaper need’ causes and looks forward to forming partnerships that will get Tender Defender into the homes of babies who need it.”

What will participating in the MassChallenge business accelerator mean for Aloe Baby, LLC? Mercer-Tachick explains: “Entrepreneurs that make it to the third round will be gathered together in Boston for four months, where they will have access to legal services, mentorship, networking, and lots of help with marketing, strategic planning, and what we look forward to most—hiring! These businesses will also have access to financiers and potential customers. The program will accelerate those lucky companies in ways we can only imagine.”

Mercer-Tachick will give her pitch in Boston on the morning of Wednesday, May 16, 2012. “Making it to the second round has been an honor. Making it to the third round would be a dream.”

Soon-to-be mommas are often very aware that they need to be careful about what they eat or drink. But what we often forget is that what we put on our skin also ends up inside our bodies. There are a couple of good ways to think about this. First, through a historical cosmetics lens: think of how we now regard women who used white lead (often tainted with arsenic) to paint their faces, and the serious damage that did both to their skin and their health. How many men, women and children died from lead poisoning from cosmetic use between the middle ages and Victorian era? Stepping back a bit, what horrible ingredient(s) will our great grandchildren be aghast that we routinely used on our faces and bodies?

Second, let’s use a modern medical lens: think about the use of transdermal patches for delivering medication for pain management, contraceptives, nausea, and many other medical issues. Why are transdermal patches so useful? One reason is that the medication—as long as its molecular structure isn’t too huge—passes right through the skin and enters the bloodstream very, very quickly. So quickly that transdermal patches have to be made with materials that mete out the medication at a slower pace so it doesn’t all get absorbed at once. Gosh. Doesn’t it make you wonder about the moisturizer you’re using for your hands, face, eyes? How about that lovely foundation you’re wearing, or your lipstick (even Burt’s Bees lipsticks have been found to be tainted with lead)?

Taken a step further, would you slather your newborn child in a shampoo/wash that contains potentially cancer-causing chemicals? (And shouldn’t companies who have those chemicals in their products be working to get them out, not waiting for the pressure of a boycott to force their hands? But I digress.) Many moms are in the same boat as us here at Aloe Baby or Jessica Alba, who has co-created honest, a company dedicated to getting nontoxic products into our households. It is in this spirit that I offer today’s product reviews.

The setting: Natural Products Expo West—the largest and most respected exposition for natural products on the planet. We at Aloe Baby went looking for partners—companies with similar missions whose products we could sell here on our online shop (coming in May, 2012). When we looked at baby skin care lines, we asked for samples as potential resellers. We talked to people from some wonderful companies, including: Aubrey Organics (amazing family atmosphere, which speaks highly of its CEO, Curt Valva), Natracare, Hugo Naturals, Nappy Shoppe, MommaEarth, Eyla’s Imports, Bellybar/NutraBella, Body Verde, Bamboobies, Sparkle Hearts, The Jojoba Company, BabyGanic, Waleda, Badger, California Baby, Motherlove, Earth Mother Angel Baby, and many more. Most of these companies were warm, receptive to new innovators, and super supportive. Here were some of the stand-outs among the baby products we tried:

  • Natracare Organic Cotton Diaper Wipes. First of all, Susie, the founder of the company, is truly wonderful! It was delightful to meet and talk with her, and I can see why her company has succeeded. She is full of life, love, and hope, and she was very encouraging to us as a new company. Okay, the wipes: these were the only wipes we brought home from the Expo, and we LOVED them. Organic cotton infused with essential oils and natural plant extracts—what’s not to love? They are free from animal products (for the vegans among us), any formaldehyde-releasing preservatives, SLS, or parabens. They smell lovely! Not overpowering, but just enough scent to impart a sense of cleanliness, which is important when dealing with poopy diapers. Their company’s philosophy and their ingredients are extremely well aligned with ours, and we adore their sense of corporate responsibility. These are very good candidates for our online shop.
  • Baby Hugo Shampoo and Baby Wash (Chamomile & Vanilla). My daughter has pretty sensitive skin, so I test for gentleness on myself first. I use two tests: how harsh is it on my (newly) colored hair and how does it feel when I put it in my eyes? I put quite a few baby washes to these tests, but this Baby Hugo product stood out. It didn’t sting my eyes at all, which was a great first sign. I used it three or four times on my freshly colored tresses, and it didn’t strip the color at all. In fact, it left it feeling conditioned/moisturized in sort of a heavy way, probably because of the Shea Butter. It wouldn’t be appropriate for daily use for me, because my hair is already thick, but I really liked the gentleness. Because the fragrances are all natural, we had no issues with sensitivities when I used it on my daughter. I love the product so much that I haven’t farmed my bottle out to anyone else yet, so I haven’t gotten confirmation, but so far I ADORE this product enough to put it in our online store. Watch for it!
  • Baby Hugo Diaper Cream with Vitamin E. Because our own product, Tender Defender, works best when applied beneath a barrier cream, we’ve been on the lookout for a good candidate. Most of the barrier creams people use (Desitin, Triple Paste, A & D Ointment, etc.) have petrolatum and other objectionable ingredients, so we’ve scoured the “green” space for an alternative. One of our favorites is Baby Hugo’s Unscented Diaper Cream. Its ingredients are a who’s who of moisturizing, and if it is applied thickly enough, it can be used as a barrier cream. We were dismayed when we couldn’t get all of the product out of the container, which is made of a higher density plastic, but my mom came over and used her frugal ingenuity: she cut the container in half, put it in a plastic baggy, and then we scooped out the remaining diaper cream, which lasted us a few more days. While I’m not thrilled that I have to do that with the packaging, it is one of the best natural barrier cream solutions we have found, and we have looked REALLY REALLY hard! Yup, it’s a stand-out! Look for it to show up in our online store!
  • BabyGanics Healin’ Groovy Non-Petroleum Protective Ointment. This one is really cool. I could almost swear I’m opening a jar of Vaseline, but there’s no petroleum to be found in this product. It’s a little more pliable than Vaseline would be, so it spreads very well. We have found it to be a terrific compliment to Tender Defender. It moisturizes beautifully. As a barrier ointment, it isn’t quite as effective at staying put and repelling diaper “events” as Baby Hugo’s Diaper Cream. But there’s no denying its moisturizing capacity, and when buying the 1-pound tub, it’s fairly economical. As a silly aside, we had to go buy this one. We were told to come back on the last day of the Expo and get Healin’ Groovy and Hiney Helper from their booth, but the person that was there that day said they weren’t giving out any products. We haven’t tried Hiney Helper, so we can’t comment on that one. Healin’ Groovy, though? That might end up in our shop!

So, dear readers, which of these products would you like to see us carry as our online store opens and grows? We would love to hear from you!

What is Tender Defender?
It is a botanical gel that is designed to support skin healing for babies suffering from diaper rash (patent pending). The organic, concentrated aloe-based formula is bio-active. It is infused with essential oils to support skin regeneration. As a diaper rash gel, it is applied directly to the baby’s bottom and allowed to air dry completely before caretakers apply a barrier cream, ointment, or paste. This gives the skin a nutritive layer of support as it heals.

But it isn’t just for babies’ bottoms. Tender Defender has been used for razor burn, chafing, abrasions, minor burns, cuts, contact dermatitis, irritation due to waxing or epilating, sunburn, rashes associated with incontinence, and external hemorrhoids. Testers of all ages have reported that the bio-active botanical formula supports skin healing for all sorts of issues–including on pets. Check out our reviews on Amazon.com, too!
