  • We're using olive oil too, it's taken ages to work, but slowly it is clearing up. Hope it works for u soon!

  • Not sure if what Fin has is cradle cap but he did have a very crusty looking forhead and eyebrows.

    I used olive oil and it is almost gone now. Just the tiniest bit on his eyebrow.
  • Thanks ladies, i'll continue with the olive oil, it does se ma little better already!! XX
  • Just an update, at rhea's 8 week app. With the doc yesterday, she gave me some bath stuff to use every other day to help it, it's called oilatum bath formula. We used it last night & have noticed a difference in her skin today.

  • I use Weleda baby's Calendula oil all over my little boy including his scalp, as he's very dry and flaky and was starting to get cradle cap. I get eczema so it looks like he might get it too, but the oil works wonders and has kept it at bay so far. Smells gorgeous too!
