MIKI HOUSE Baby Skincare

A newborn baby’s skin is only about half the thickness of an adult’s. It lacks a proper barrier function, and is actually incredibly delicate. In addition, it faces dryness and irritants upon birth, after being in the womb’s protective environment.

If only we could protect such delicate skin…
“What can we do for our babies?”
We are constantly posing this question to ourselves.
MIKI HOUSE developed its Skincare Series with the sincere wish to make the lives of babies and their families as pleasant as possible.

MIKI HOUSE Frequently Asked Questions on Baby Skincare

Question1Why does my baby need skincare?

A newborn’s skin is only about half the thickness of an adult’s, and does not develop a barrier layer of sebum until anywhere from 3 months old to puberty, leaving it dehydrated. Baby skincare is necessary to moisturize and protect your baby’s skin.

Question2Until about what age will my baby need skincare?

Skincare is essential throughout your lifetime, but your child should switch products as they hit puberty.

Question3Can they use the same skincare year-round?

There is nothing wrong with using the same skincare year-round, but we recommend using Baby Cream instead of Baby Milk Lotion if your baby is prone to dry skin, or during the winter season.

Question4In what order should the skincare be applied?

After using Baby Soap for bathing, we recommend using Baby Oil (full body) → Baby Milk Lotion (full body) → Baby Cream (spot treat any extra dry areas).

Question5How much should I apply?

Baby Soap: 2~3 pumps per body part (face・chest・hands・legs・back)
Oil: 2~3 pumps per body part
Lotion: 1~2 pumps per body part
Cream: 1~2 pearl-sized amount per body part

※If applying to the whole body, make sure to use the appropriate amount for each body part. Adjust amount to your child’s size.

Question6Can I use only a single product instead of all of them?

While each individual product will perform their duty on their own, each one is designed to work with each other, so we recommend using the complete routine.

Question7Should I use skincare even if my baby has no apparent skin problem?

Infant skin is often dehydrated despite looking healthy, so skincare is essential.

Question8Are these products safe to use on the face as well as the body?

These products are suitable for both the face and the body.
If you are an adult using these products on yourself, and find that the result is unsatisfactory, we recommend using products made for adults. We do not recommend adults to use Baby Soap to wash their hair.

Question9Is there a recommended time to use skincare?

Because children’s skin (especially baby) lacks the barrier function adult skin has, we recommend using within 5 minutes of bathing to prevent excess evaporation.
During the summer, or for children who are not prone to dry skin, once-a-day application after bathing is enough. However, during the dry winter season, or for children prone to dry skin, we recommend applying 2~3 times a day after bathing, upon waking, or right before going out.

Question10Should I adjust use according to my child’s skin type or current condition?

We recommend layering Baby Cream over the Milk Lotion during the drier seasons. In addition, if the guardian’s judgment deems it appropriate, there is no problem with entirely substituting Baby Cream for Milk Lotion for children with dry skin.
Please consult a doctor before use if your child has any skin disease.

Question11Why is there a scent if the product is “unscented”?

There are no added fragrances in this line of products. However, you may be able to smell the natural scent of the ingredients in the formulation. Please be assured that the product is not defected should there be a natural scent.

Question12Is there an expiration date?

The product will expire in 3 years if left unopened at room temperature. Please use as quickly as possible after opening.

Question13How should I store the skincare?

Avoid direct sunlight, high temperatures and high humidity. Store in a cool, dark place.

Question14Is this product safe for babies with sensitive skin?

Yes, but please stop use if any abnormal reactions occur.

Question15Is this product safe for babies with eczema?

We do not suggest you use if any skin reaction or inflammation occurs. Please consult a doctor before use.

Question16Is this product safe for when my child is experiencing diaper rash, inflammation or other irritations?

Please refrain from using these products should your child be experiencing these. Please consult a doctor before further use.

Question17What should I do if my child experiences any redness, discomfort, etc. upon use?

Please stop using, and rinse the product off where it was applied. Please consult a doctor before further use.

Question18My child has licked the product off. Is this safe?

Because the safest ingredients are selected for this product, there should not be great harm. However, if this should happen, we recommend wiping the inside of the child’s mouth with a damp gauze, have them gargle water, and drink water to dilute the solution. If there is further concern after following these steps, please consult a doctor, and bring the product with you for reference. Should your child ingest a large amount of the product, please consult a doctor immediately.
