| BABY SKIN CARE BASICS Baby skin care is a delicate matter. In the early months of life, babies transition from the protective environment of the womb to changing temperatures, low humidity and exposure to germs, pathogens and irritating substances. Even simple physical contact with the world, including diapers, clothing, and blankets, presents a challenge to newborn skin! Baby skin is very fine, and while it is developing, it is particularly vulnerable to external stimuli. It is critical to avoid exposing babies to harmful chemicals, irritants, carcinogens and endocrine disruptors since baby skin is easily penetrated by these agents. Additionally, it is important to support the proper development of the acid mantle and dermal immunity in the first year of life. OGbaby is formulated to provide support for the developing skin barrier and immune system using certified organic and natural ingredients. OGbaby products are Certified Organic by OCIA according to the USDA National Organic Program standards, meaning that no toxic ingredients are used in our products. OGbaby by Trillium Organics. The most healthful skin care regimen for babies is simple, effective and organic. |
The Importance of pH and Acid Mantle Development At birth, newborn infants have an almost neutral skin surface with an average pH value of 6.5. Assuming that baby skin care is managed properly, normal skin metabolic processes, secretion of sweat and sebum, and the gradual colonization of the skin with micro-organisms results in a gradual adjustment to an acid pH value of 5.5 on the skin surface during the first months of life. The properly developed acid mantle fulfills a series of major protective functions and supports the maintenance of healthy skin. Recent studies show that exposure to products with pH values above 6 and below 4.5 destabilizes the mantle and correspondingly reduces barrier function and cellular regeneration. Impaired barrier function makes skin susceptible to penetration by irritants, allergens and pathogens, and impaired cellular regeneration degrades dermal health and long-term skin vitality. |

| GENTLE SOAP We tell mothers and fathers that soap should be used on babies “seldom and sparingly” in the interest of supporting the development of the acid mantle that is essential to healthy dermal function. Gentle Soap is a truly gentle formulation, beginning with saponified organic olive, coconut and jojoba oils, to which organic honey, aloe vera, rosemary extract, guar gum and natural vegetable glycerin are added. Honey is naturally anti-bacterial and aloe vera is useful as an anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and anti-fungal. Guar gum is a thickener, rosemary extract is an anti-oxidant and vegetable glycerin is a humectant, meaning that it supports dermal moisturization by attracting water to the skin. Breathe Free Tea Tree Gentle Soap incorporates the addition of organic eucalyptus and tea tree essential oils for use during cold and flu season, and when baby shows signs of developing upper respiratory illness. Eucalyptus essential oil has expectorant properties when inhaled, promoting the flow of mucous. Tea tree essential oil is indicated for use as an inhalant in the treatment of ear, nose and throat infections. A warm bath with Breathe Free Tea Tree Soap is a soothing way to allow Baby to inhale the congestion clearing vapors.

| OGbaby and OGmama's Gentle Soaps do not contain any precursors to 1, 4 dioxane or formaldehyde. The March 2009, Campaign For Safe Cosmetic’s report “No More Toxic Tub” presented third-party laboratory results showing that many baby care products are contaminated with these hyper-toxic ingredients. The report states: “Very few, if any, cosmetics or personal care products list 1,4-dioxane as an ingredient (i), even though an analysis by Campaign for Safe Cosmetics co-founder the Environmental Working Group suggests that it may be found in 22 percent of the more than 25,000 products in the Skin Deep database of cosmetics products (ii). That's because 1,4-dioxane is a frequent contaminant of common cosmetics ingredients (iii), but as a contaminant it is not listed among intentionally added ingredients. Most commonly, 1,4-dioxane is found in products that create suds, like shampoo, liquid soap and bubble bath. Environmental Working Group's analysis suggests that 97 percent of hair relaxers, 57 percent of baby soaps and 22 percent of all products in Skin Deep may be contaminated with 1,4-dioxane (iv). Independent lab tests co-released by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics in 2007 showed that popular brands of children’s bubble bath and body wash contained 1,4-dioxane. Besides sodium laureth sulfate, other common ingredients that may be contaminated by 1,4-dioxane include PEG compounds and chemicals that include the clauses "xynol," "ceteareth" and "oleth." |
| 1,4-dioxane: A carcinogenic contaminant of cosmetic products. Listed by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics as a Level 10 Hazard, which is the highest rating, and cited for Allergy/Immunotoxicity, Carcinogenic Activity, Renal Toxicity, Sense Organ Toxicity, Respiratory Toxicity, Eye Irritant, Reproductive Toxicity and Neurotoxicity. It is also cited as a Ecotoxin and Persistent Bioaccumlative in Wildlife. It is banned in Canada and the European Union. Formaldehyde: Used as a cosmetic biocide, denaturant and preservative. It is a known carcinogen (causes cancer). Causes allergic, irritant and contact dermatitis, headaches and chronic fatigue. The vapour is extremely irritating to the eyes, nose and throat (mucous membranes). Listed by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics as a Level 10 Hazard, which is the highest rating. Formaldehyde contaminates personal care products when common preservatives release formaldehyde over time in the container. Common ingredients likely to contaminate products with formaldehyde include quaternium-15, DMDM hydantoin, imidazolidinyl urea and diazolidinyl urea. |
| RESPIRATORY RUB This traditional cold and flu rub is a classic medicated balm, with organic olive oil and beeswax serving as a base to deliver organic eucalyptus and tea tree essential oils. Breathe Free Tea Tree Respiratory Rub is for use when baby shows signs of congestion due to allergy, cold or flu. Eucalyptus essential oil has expectorant properties when inhaled, promoting the flow of mucous. Tea tree essential oil is indicated for use as an anti bacterial, antiviral inhalant in the treatment of ear, nose and throat infections. For Best Results: Apply to chest, back and bottoms of feet, before bundling up, to ease congestion caused by allergy, cold or flu. Test sensitivity: For very young infants, or preemies, test skin sensitivity first. Before applying the balm to the chest, apply a small fingerprint to his or her wrist or ankle first. If any redness occurs, that tells you that baby’s skin is not ready for pure essential oils. In such a case, apply the balm to your own skin allowing the baby to inhale the vapors, while you cuddle or nurse the babe. |
| Organic Certification OGbaby uses no toxic ingredients in any of its products and substantiates its claim with the USDA National Organic Program certification seal. The USDA organic certification is the gold standard in organics and requires manufacturers to submit to rigorous auditing and on-site inspections. Arguably, the most valuable feature of the seal is the authentication of the ingredients that are excluded for use in USDA certified organic products. The program is highly restrictive in terms of ingredients that are allowed for use, which is why most personal care products that claim to be organic do not boast the USDA organic seal. Remember, brands are not certified organic as a whole, and each product must achieve certification standards individually in order to use the USDA organic seal. |
