Description
Weleda Calendula Body Lotion Baby gently cares for and moisturises delicate skin. It's built around calendula and chamomile, in a 200ml bottle.
A daily lotion for delicate skin
Weleda positions this lotion for delicate skin specifically, designed as an everyday moisturiser rather than a targeted treatment. It's a straightforward addition to a bath-time or nappy-change routine, applied whenever your baby's skin could use a little extra care, and the 200ml bottle is sized for regular, ongoing use rather than occasional application.
What's in the bottle
The formula is built on a considered blend:
- Sesame seed oil and sweet almond oil, as the moisturising base
- Calendula officinalis flower extract and chamomilla (chamomile) flower extract, included for their traditional soothing use
- Beeswax and cocoa seed butter, contributing to the lotion's texture
- A fragrance from natural essential oils
This isn't a fragrance-free formula, so if that matters for your baby's skin, it's worth checking Weleda's dedicated Fragrance Free or Derma range instead.
How it feels to use
Expect a lightweight lotion that absorbs without leaving a heavy residue, suited to daily use after a bath or as part of a regular skincare routine. The texture is designed to spread easily over larger areas like the arms and legs, which matters when you're trying to moisturise a moving baby.
How to use it
Apply to clean, dry skin as needed, working it in gently. It's a reasonable everyday step after bath time, when skin tends to benefit most from a moisturiser.
Building a calendula routine
If calendula suits your baby's skin, the Weleda Baby Face Cream Calendula covers the face with the same active ingredient, while this lotion handles the rest of the body.

As with any new skincare product, it's worth doing a small patch test first if your baby's skin is particularly reactive.
