Smells like dog shampoo

This smells like medicated dog shampoo. The pump was also broken. Pretty disappointed for a more expensive product like this oneEdit: we ended up using the bottle. While i did not care for the smell and the dispenser was broken, I still removed the lid to dispense manually into my hands. The update is because the product is high quality and a little goes a long way. My baby’s hair is soft and shiny after use and she feels very fresh. I can tell it’s a quality product, regardless of the smell…

Pros
  • Love this stuff for my eczema prone child!
Cons
  • Love the product and brand but the smell was not the best. Highly recommend the unscented version🙌🏼

Oatmeal in the soap is so hard to find.

We suffer from mild eczema and the regular "gentle" or "no tears" shampoos don't really help much with the irritation even though they are the most gentle soaps I can find.I have been looking for a shampoo and body wash that doesn't have harsh fragrance and can soothe some of the dryness/irritation. My kids are a bit older, but this is exactly what they needed. Who cares if it says "baby"? I struggle with finding the right products that won't exacerbate their symptoms. So far so good!

Pros
  • It smells great and isn't too perfumey. Great for sensitive skin
Cons
  • It may not work effectively for all hair types

Favorite Baby Wash for my opinion

This is by far my favorite shampoo/body wash for my baby. All the other brands I have used would irritate her skin, but this one has a good lather, leaves her nice and clean, and has never left her red. I will note it is not exactly 'tear-free' but any decently made wash that isn't extremely altered won't be *tested by me, crazy mom, who opened my eyes in its suds* but has never bothered my daughter when its gotten in her eyes

Pros
  • Comes in a recyclable bottle
Cons
  • It may not work well in areas with hard or mineral-rich water

We use a lot of Babo Botanicals products and love them all but I wanted to specifically talk about this one (Moisturizing Shampoo and Wash). My son has had bad eczema since he was a newborn. In the winter we use the Moisturizing Baby Shampoo and Wash with plus other things like YL essential oils to help keep his flare ups minimal but in the summer, the Wash alone will help minimize flares to zero. My mom accidentally used a different wash instead of the Moisturizing Shampoo in his bath and the…

Pros
  • Biodegradable Warning
Cons
  • It may cause hair to tangle or knot easily

Best One To-Date in my review

I am pretty sure this is the best wash I've used for my baby to-date. It doesn't dry his skin so it's perfect for bedtime routine. My bubs skin was instantly more moisturized and soft after first use. I love the way this soap feels and how easily it matters without an overwhelming scent. It just does what it's supposed to and more!

Pros
  • SAFE FOR LITTLE ONES:: Pour a few drops in hands or directly into the bath. Gently wash baby's body and scalp. Avoid eye area. Rinse.
Cons
  • It may not remove all styling products or residue from the hair

It does not contain harsh chemicals

It has a good rating on SkinDeep and I like the scent. It is recommended for babies so I decided to try it as I had bought some for my granddaughter. It checks all the boxes of what I like in a body wash. It is not drying and has ingredients known be soothing to the skin and hydrating not drying.

Pros
  • I definitely don’t have an addiction to this stuff……I do. It’s amazing
Cons
  • Some individuals may find the scent unpleasant

Great product, but pump cannot work with the very thick soap

I like using this gentle soap for my shampoo and bathing.The manufacturer did not consider how this very thick soap would be dispersed or I simply got a particularly thick batch (where are the product standards?). The soap I received was both thick and gooey, the pump has a narrow tube--the combination does not work. I had to move some of the soap to another pump container and add sterile water to thin it for use.

Pros
  • Recommended by dermatologists and pediatricians
Cons
  • It may not provide enough shine or gloss for some hair types

A must have for babies

Absolutely love this product for my little one who has sensitive skin. It smells so clean and he was not irritated from it at all. I have now bought it several times because I refuse to use anything else!

Pros
  • BABO-8040
Cons
  • It may not provide enough cleansing power for heavily polluted environments

Smells heavenly for my opinion

Love all Babo products! The smell of their Shampoo and Washes, and lotion are heavenly! The lotion is thick and not sticky or greasy, and I feel good knowing the ingredients are natural and won’t harm my babies! All my kids have sensitive skin and do well with Babo products!

Pros
  • Baby & Child Care
Cons
  • It may not leave hair feeling particularly nourished or soft

Smell too strong! in my review

I'm not the only one in my family who doesn't like the smell, it's just too much, would never buy this one again. However, we did like the fragrance free version.

Pros
  • Hypoallergenic, making it safe for those with sensitive skin
Cons
  • It may not provide enough hydration for extremely dry hair

FINALLY - a soap that actually CLEANS!

Best shampoo and body wash. I've used california baby, babyganics, honest brand and mustela. And of all of these, Babo Botanicals is by far the best. The other gentle and organic body washes were gentle and organic - yes. But they did not do a good job of WASHING and CLEANING. I think people are so caught up in the ingredients list that they forget that these body washes and shampoos need to actually CLEAN your kid. Whenever I take my 2 year old out and put on sunblock, I noticed that the other

Pros
  • Vegan formula, making it cruelty-free and environmentally conscious
Cons
  • The consistency may be difficult to spread evenly throughout the hair

Love the product but can't stand the scent

I wanted to like this more. I thought it cleaned well and seems to have moisturized my baby's skin so no complaints there, my only issue is the scent. I was hoping it would just be sort of a warm vanilla and oat scent but honestly it smells like vanilla patchouli which is a scent I am super sensitive to and cannot stand. Like it starts off as a vanilla-forward scent that settles into the musky scent of patchouli. I don't see patchouli listed in the ingredients in this listing but could swear I…

Pros
  • PLANT-BASED & HYPOALLERGENIC FORMULA:: Specially formulated with naturally-derived ingredients including calendula oil soothes scalp with cradle cap or dry patches.
Cons
  • It may not be suitable for oily or greasy hair

Not the best smelling soap

I like that it’s fairly "clean” but the smell is pretty strong and not in a good way. Would it hurt them to add some lavender or something?

Pros
  • NO HARSH CHEMICALS & IRRITANTS: Hypoallergenic to reduce the risk of allergic reactions and clinically tested under dermatological control. Gluten, soy, dairy, peanut, almond and walnut free. Made in USA and B Corp Certified.
Cons
  • It may leave hair feeling dry or stripped

Loving the scent best in my review

Upon opening, first impression was oh gosh the smell is quite strong. Then, started using it, and after every bath, all I wanted to do was sniff my kids. I think the strong scent is due to the concentration of the product. It's gooey/thicker than other over the counter bath products. I would describe the scent as a blend of sandalwood & something earthy.I'm not really sure what/how canlendula smells like (It reminds me of the sandalwood bar soap my mom likes to use when growing up). The bottle…

Pros
  • Gentle enough to use daily
Cons
  • The formula may cause product buildup over time

Parents should know the truth

This company should not be trusted with baby’s skin. Babo has no customer service, they do not respond to emails, they offer no phone number, if you did deeper on their website you’ll find a major lack of transparency. It is false advertising, which is not a good look for a supposedly natural brand.

Pros
  • Helps prevent dryness and irritation
Cons
  • It may dry out the hair and lead to breakage over time

So good I use it for my hair too

My son suffers from eczema and I bought this product because the ingredients sounded good. I tried it on my hair just because, and I ended up loving it, my hair is so soft and shiny, I will be buying more.

Pros
  • Leaves hair and skin feeling soft and moisturized
Cons
  • It may not work effectively in humid climates

Great for moisturizing and gentle on skin!

I have been using this product for the past 4 yrs for my 4 yr old and 9 month old. It's really gentle on their skin and doesnt leave a residue on their bodies or mine. My girls and I use only unscented products and this is a staple in our home. I use a loofah sponge and it lathers up really well.I love that it also works as moisturizer. The smell isn't strong at all. It's a faint scent that quickly goes away. Also, a little goes a long way. I dilute it and put the mixture in a foam pump bottle.

Pros
  • Highly rated and reviewed by customers
Cons
  • The formula may change consistency or texture over time

Same great product, just better!

When we got this baby wash recently, it didn’t look the same as the bottle we had a couple years ago. I contacted the company and they responded in a timely manner that they had since altered the formula to be even more natural, the orangey color is from annato oil.Baby’s sensitive areas are clearing up better with this wash than the Honest brand we were using. It smells light and pleasant and baby’s skin is less dry that with the other wash.

Pros
  • FORMULATED TO CLARIFY THE HAIR AND SKIN: This 2-in-1 shampoo and body wash is specifically developed with oatmilk & calendula oil to leave hair soft, smooth and shiny. Enriched with Babo's organic Nutri-Soothe Complex.
Cons
  • The packaging may not be sustainable or eco-friendly

I love the way this smells

I love the way this smells. I don't understand the complaints on that. If you are used to buying natural products, the smell shouldn't bother you. It is a little "hippy" in the way it smells, but again, I find it quite pleasant. My daughter had a really dry scalp and this cleared that right up. I can now wash her hair every day if I want to and don't have the dryness that we had before. I was very disappointed with the shipping of this item. It was boxed with a food item and not placed…

Pros
  • 2-in-1 product is convenient for busy parents or travelers
Cons
  • The packaging may be inconvenient for travel purposes

works great for my eczema boy

I have tried many brands for my son's eczema and I think this seems to work the best.It is gentle with light aroma. It may not effectively remove chlorine or other chemicals from the hair!

Pros
  • Contains no synthetic fragrances or colors
Cons
  • It may not effectively remove chlorine or other chemicals from the hair
