Description
Weleda Calendula Shampoo & Body Wash Baby is a 2-in-1 wash for hair and body, built around organic calendula. Weleda's own claim for it is simple: it gently cleanses and cares from head to toe. It's available in 200ml and 400ml, and is recommended by paediatricians.
One bottle for hair and body
A combined shampoo and body wash is a genuinely practical shortcut for bath time, since it means one product covers your baby from head to toe rather than juggling separate bottles. It's formulated for delicate skin, and Weleda notes it's recommended by paediatricians, which is worth knowing if you're looking for a wash with some professional backing behind it.
Why calendula
Calendula is the headline ingredient, chosen for its traditional, gentle character in baby skincare. Weleda pairs it with a fragrance drawn from 100% natural essential oils rather than synthetic perfume, which gives bath time a mild, natural scent rather than an overpowering one.
A creamy, gentle lather
The texture is creamy rather than sharply foaming, designed to lather gently and rinse away cleanly without leaving residue in hair or on skin. That combination, a mild lather plus calendula, is aimed at making daily washing comfortable rather than drying, which matters for skin and hair that are washed frequently.
How to use it
Apply to wet skin and hair in the bath or shower, lather gently, and rinse thoroughly. Keep it away from eyes, and rinse immediately with water if any gets in.
Building a calendula bath routine
If you want to build out a full calendula-based routine, the Weleda Calendula Cream Bath Baby is a cream-based bath alternative if you'd rather not use a 2-in-1 wash every time, and the Weleda Baby Body Cream Calendula is a natural after-bath follow-up.
