review | Mater Mothers baby products

We have some issues with sensitive skins in this house (mostly me), so when I was offered the chance to try the Mater Mothers baby products, I was keen. I was sent samples of products, all opinions are mine.

 Of the 3 products we tried, hands down my favourite was the baby wash. With no smell, not many bubbles, and being able to use it on hair and body, I love it. Sophie wasn't worried when she got a little bit in her eyes, we just washed it off, and she kept playing. I often find that soaps dry out my hands, making my dermatitis flair up, but this body wash left my skin feeling just as if I hadn't used soap at all (weird, I know, you want soap to leave you feeling clean, but trust me, it is awesome!)

I like a good thick moisturiser on my skin during winter, so I used the pregnancy balm for my arms. I found the smell a little cloying (but that could be because it's bad hay fever weather at the moment, and I'm sneezing madly every day), but my skin was left feeling soft and fresh, with no sticky residue once it soaked in.

The baby moisturiser is slightly thicker than the pregnancy balm, with a similar smell. It soaks into skin quickly, leaving no sticky residue, and feels great on my hands and Sophie's tummy.

Proceeds from the sale of Mater Mothers products support the Mater Little Miracles through the Mater Foundation, helping with vital research and providing specialist care for critically ill babies.
