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.*

See what parents are saying about using Tender Defender for diaper rash and other skin issues for babies on Facebook, Amazon.com, and other outlets:

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

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.

Tender Defender Ingredients

Reply

While the balance of essential oils in our formula is proprietary, we believe that parents have every right to know what is in the products they use on their babies. We are proud to list the ingredients in our formulation and urge you to explore our Knowledge Center to find out more about these botanical ingredients.

Travel Pack Outside

Ingredients: Deionized water and Aloe barbadensis powder (concentrated organic aloe vera); Prunus armeniaca (wildcrafted apricot kernel) oil; Rosa rubiginosa (wildcrafted rosehip seed) oil; proprietary blend of essential oils of Melaleuca quinquenervia CT viridiflora (organic niaouli), Zingiber officinale (wildcrafted ginger), Anthemis nobili (organic Roman chamomile), and Lavandula angustifolia (organic high altitude lavender); carbopol (thickening polymer); potassium sorbate; sodium benzoate; citric acid; sodium hydroxide.

What? You’re using preservatives?

Baby and puppyYes, unfortunately, we must. Though these botanicals have amazing properties for mammalian skin, the antibacterial and antifungal properties are not robust enough to ensure that the product won’t become moldy or otherwise tainted a few days after it is opened. But we have worked with our suppliers and chemists to choose the safest possible route (these are all food grade ingredients) with the lowest concentrations that will still be effective. We looked at some alternatives, but they weren’t pretty!

And we’re not afraid to shout out for another baby skin care manufacturer who has explored this topic beautifully! Check out Earth Mama’s Blog.

What are those last two things for?

The citric acid and sodium hydroxide are pH buffers. Without them, the formula’s pH (level of acidity or alkalinity) could swing wildly in any direction. That would not be good. Again, we worked with our suppliers and chemists to choose food-grade buffers that we could use in very small amounts that would be least impactful on babies’ skin.

Baby’s Skin

Reply

Babies: what amazing creatures! They are born with the ability to see and hear almost as well as full-grown adults. They triple their size in their first year. And by the age of two, the average baby has had more than 7,200 diaper changes! What effect does all of that diaper changing have on babies’ skin?

Baby Bottom

Baby’s skin

That waxy coating a baby is born with is called vernix, and it is the best skin defense in the world! (Never wash it off! Massage it in!)

Your baby’s skin is 20-30% thinner than an adult’s, and it loses moisture much more quickly. Because it is so thin, the lotions, soaps, shampoos, creams, pastes, detergents, and ointments we use penetrate much more readily and quickly–for better or for worse. More about that in just a moment!

Your baby’s skin is also more prone to infection than an adult’s because his immune system has not had time to build up resistance to common microbes. Friction from cloth or disposable diapers can provide microbes with a weak spot in your baby’s dermal defenses. Add feces and urine, and you have a closed, moist environment with a high pH (alkaline or basic) that encourages fecal enzymes to further irritate baby’s skin while microorganisms thrive.

Artificial fragrances, harsh detergents (“hypoallergenic” does not equal “gentle”), chemicals in many best-selling soaps/shampoos, and preservatives are all prime candidates for irritating a baby’s skin.

Not even “baby” powders are safe. (The Environmental Working Group has an excellent database of cosmetics, their ingredients, and their safety. There is an entire section for babies and moms.) The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) recommends not using powders on babies’ skin; airborne talc can cause lung problems while plant-based powders feed fungal infections.

As parents, we owe it to our children to be aware of the chemicals we are buying in the laundry soaps and softeners, shampoos, lotions, ointments, pastes, and ointments that come into contact with our babies’ thin and vulnerable skin.

 

Diaper rash

Babies are most susceptible between 8 and 10 months, but diaper rash can occur at any time. Though there are many causes, there are two things parents can provide that will help: air and barrier creams/ointments/pastes.

According to the Mayo Clinic:

“Give your baby as much diaper-free time as possible so that his or her skin can have a chance to stay dry and start healing. When you do use diapers, change them frequently and apply a diaper rash cream or ointment to act as a barrier between your baby’s skin and a dirty diaper.”

AAD also recommends keeping it simple when treating babies’ skin for diaper rash: warm water and a washcloth for cleaning, plenty of air for drying, and a barrier cream, preferably with zinc oxide.

With Aloe Baby’s Tender Defender, you can give your baby both the air and barrier her bottom needs. But she will also get natural botanicals that support wound healing and skin regrowth. When you use Aloe Baby’s (patent pending) approach to diaper rash treatment, you will be providing both a bio-active nutritive layer to support healing and important air drying time before applying a barrier cream.

Home of Aloe Baby

Naturally Crafted for Babies…

Tender Defender was designed by Aloe Baby, LLC for babies with diaper rash. Diaper rash is our reason for being! Our formula was created with the most powerful botanicals available, carefully blended to be both effective at supporting skin healing and gentle enough for baby’s most tender skin.

Tender Defender Bio-Active Aloe Base Gel: Diaper Rash Care

Aloe veraTender Defender is a revolutionary new step (patent pending) in diaper rash care. The product is a concentrated aloe-based gel. It is used before barrier creams/ointments/pastes. Here is why it is so important:

  • Barrier creams, ointments, or pastes alone can do harm if they trap moisture or plant-based starches, providing food for harmful microbes.
  • Tender Defender provides a bio-active, nutritive layer to support skin as it heals, acting as a base coat beneath the barrier cream.
  • It is made from natural, wildcrafted, and organic botanicals full of Ginger flowerbio-active compounds to support skin as it heals.
  • Tender Defender is free from petrolatum, detergents, parabens, phthalates, alcohol, artificial fragrance, colors, formaldehydes, nuts, gluten, soy, and animal products.

…But Great for the Whole Family!

Tender Defender is also terrific for older kids, adults, and pets. It supports skin healing by providing nutrients the skin needs to repair itself. Chafing, heat rash, sunburn, razor burn, eczema, psoriasis, bed sores, pressure sores, external hemorrhoids…Tender Defender’s users report lots of uses for it!

 

More than 99% Wild-crafted or Organic Ingredients

rose hipsThis bio-active, nutritive formula includes botanicals that have been scientifically demonstrated to be helpful to healing skin. All of them are sustainably wild-crafted or organic. Some of the ingredients Aloe Baby, LLC has included in the unique formulation are listed below.

  • Aloe is concentrated for greater regeneration of basal keratinocytes. That means that concentrated aloe supports faster skin regrowth.
  • Apricot kernel oil provides vitamins E and A and gamma linoleic acid, which helps skin maintain moisture balance.
  • Rosehip seed oil has been demonstrated to aid in post-surgical wound healing.
  • Niaouli is a highly effective antibacterial and antifungal agent that is less irritating than its cousin, the tea tree.

About Aloe Baby, LLC

Aloe Baby, LLC is dedicated to the notion that babies deserve the highest quality care we can provide. Their skin is delicate and thin, and the environment it encounters–especially in diapers–can be harsh and cruel.

Growing Baby

Aloe Baby, LLC grew out of the need for a product that did not exist for one child’s diaper rash that persisted for three months. It led to a new method for treating diaper rash, and all sorts of other skin issues mammals have when barrier creams, ointments, and pastes are medically preferred. (Patent pending.)

 

Ginger flowerThe product and company were developed with a commitment to using natural, renewable, plant-based ingredients. Whenever possible, we choose organic ingredients, and many of our oils are wild-crafted in a sustainable manner and provide living wages to workers around the world.
