Pipette Baby Balm is our top pick for targeted moisturizing and problem areas. The 7-ingredient formula is beautifully simple—just proven moisturizers without fillers or preservatives of concern.
This balm shines for:
- Dry patches and eczema-prone areas
- Chapped cheeks from drool or wind
- Cradle cap treatment
- Diaper area protection
- Cracked lips
The squalane-rich formula absorbs better than petroleum-based alternatives while providing similar barrier protection. Parents consistently report that this balm actually heals problem areas rather than just masking symptoms.
The price per ounce is high, but this is a targeted treatment—you don't need much. One jar lasts months with proper use.
