Organic Babies Mum and Baby Rescue Balm

| March 27, 2012

Green People kindly sent a sample of Organic Babies Mum and Baby Rescue Balm for my baby and I to try. We’ve been using this balm for 2 weeks now with excellent results.

In cold weather I develop eczema on my hands which leads to very dry and itchy, red skin. I’ve been massaging Mum and Baby Rescue Balm on my hands every evening before bed and found in 3 days my skin was feeling less dry and itchy and my hands looked smoother. My eczema has now cleared up on my hands and I have soft skin again which I’m very happy about!

My baby’s knees have been rough and red since she started crawling. I’ve found rubbing a little Mum and Baby Rescue Balm on her knees after her bath has soothed her skin and softened the rough patches. She also suffers from eczema occasionally in the folds of her skin so I’ve been using this balm sparingly around her chin, on her elbows and in the creases of her legs. It’s kept her skin well moisturised and has helped to prevent dry skin which can lead to eczema.

As the weather’s getting warmer I’ve started using Organic Babies Mum and Baby Rescue Balm on my elbows and heels to moisturise my skin which has become dry over the winter. I’ve discovered it’s also lovely used as a lip balm!

Instead of carrying several items in your baby changing bag you only need to take Organic Babies Mum and Baby Rescue Balm for both you and your baby!

Mum & Baby Rescue Balm is great if you’re pregnant as it can be used for perineum massage prior to giving birth to help prevent tearing. And for nursing mothers it’s safe to use on sore nipples before, during and after breastfeeding.

This amazing balm contains 95.9% certified organic ingredients and is made from the key ingredients of Hemp, Shea Butter and Calendula to moisturise and soften skin.

What I love most about this balm is that it’s gentle enough for both myself and my baby to use and is free from Parabens, Lanolin, phthalates, artificial perfumes, petrochemicals and colourants.

There’s a great range of Green People Organic Babies and Children Products for all your baby needs including bath products, nappy cream, sunscreen, toothpaste, shampoo, massage oil, moisturiser and lotions.

Organic Babies Mum and Baby Rescue Balm 100ml is available from Green People RRP £9.70.

Riverford Dairy Competition

| March 15, 2012

We’ve sampled some of Riverford’s amazing dairy produce this week.

The selection of Riverford’s organic whole milk, semi skimmed milk and skimmed milk was delicious.

We enjoyed it fresh in the morning on our museli with a side of hot milky coffee and in the afternoon with a cup of English Breakfast tea.

At only 99p per litre Riverford organic milk is great value and healthy for the whole family.

Indulgently we consumed the Riverford clotted cream with scones and organic raspberry jam. We could have been in Devon, it was like stepping into another world…

The whole yoghurt and fat-free yoghurt tasted delicious with a fresh fruit salad and I enjoyed it as a quick and convenient snack during the day with a sprinkling of sunflower seeds. Our baby loved the creamy whole yoghurt after her dinner in the evening, full of goodness and flavour.

The Riverford clotted cream fudge was, dare I say more! Fantastic as a gift or as an indulgent treat for oneself.


Riverford butter is deliciously creamy and it stayed semi-soft in the fridge, making it wonderfully convenient for spreading straight on to fresh bread or toast. We enjoyed it on crusty fresh bread with Leek and Potato Soup and used it in cooking to bring out the full flavour of vegetables.

Riverford Dairy Competition

Until the 27 April 2012 you can enter the competition to win a day at Riverford’s dairy farm in Yorkshire or Devon. The prize includes one night’s B&B accommodation for the winner and a friend.

Riverford work with small-scale producers who care about their animals. They won the RSPCA Good Business Awards 2011. Find out more about Riverford animal welfare and don’t miss the incredible video of their cows bounding into the field at the beginning of Spring.
