Mangomica Hypoallergenic Balm for Children

Product description

Mangomica Hypoallergenic Baby Balm contains over 97% ingredients of natural origin, including vegetable oils – a rich source of essential unsaturated fatty acids. These primarily include Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acids, which soften, moisturize, and lubricate the skin. The product's formula is enriched with Ceramide NP – the plant-based equivalent of Ceramide 3 (a component of the intercellular cement in the epidermis). It replenishes epidermal lipids, rebuilds and strengthens the skin's hydrolipid barrier, and prevents excessive water loss.

Additionally, Mangomica Hypoallergenic Baby Balm contains an innovative prebiotic complex with moisturizing and softening properties. This complex activates the synthesis of vitamin D in the skin. Glycerin, betaine, and allantoin also provide moisturizing benefits, accelerating the healing of irritations and minor skin lesions.

The preservative system of Mangomica Hypoallergenic Baby Balm is sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate, and the antioxidant is vitamin E. The balm does not contain a fragrance composition, which significantly reduces the risk of allergies.

A good product composition based on natural ingredients that both moisturize and lubricate the skin, i.e. properly care for it. They maintain the epidermal barrier in good condition and can soothe skin irritations. The lack of fragrance additives is an important feature of the product for allergy sufferers, because it reduces the possibility of local and inhaled irritations (irritations of the nasal mucosa). This increases the safety of using the product. There are many products for children's skin care on the market. Those that are hypoallergenic, like this balm, certainly have a better chance of remaining in constant sale. Every child's skin is different and only after trying a given product do we find out if it is the right one for us.

Overall assessment

Due to its consistency, the balm spreads very well on the skin - it is neither too thin nor too thick. It absorbs very well, leaving the skin moisturized. Immediately after application, the skin becomes velvety smooth, refreshed, and minor irritations disappear. In my opinion, it is a very useful product, both due to its successful, natural composition and excellent moisturizing effect. I also rate its packaging very well: a handy and light plastic bottle (from an ecological point of view, a glass bottle would be better, but this one is more convenient because it is lighter) and a very convenient and well-functioning dispenser. The outer packaging is a cardboard box with a lot of information about the product, including a comprehensive discussion of the ingredients and their effects, how to use them, and the age of the child for whom the product is intended. I have been using this balm for about 4 weeks and I am delighted with it. Very convenient to use, it moisturizes the skin very well, the condition of which has improved significantly over time, and the packaging is very aesthetic. I don't see any flaws.

The product meets all the criteria of a good emollient. The advantages of the balm include - a very good composition, based on natural ingredients that have a beneficial effect on the skin condition and the lack of fragrances. The product is very useful for constant care of the skin of the whole body. It keeps the skin in good condition - improves its elasticity, moisturizes, and also prevents itching due to dryness.

Starting with the packaging, which is durable, minimalist, and has a pump that dispenses the right amount of product. As for the properties of the balm, I believe that it meets the manufacturer's promises, moisturizes and leaves a pleasant protective layer on the skin, it is not greasy, absorbs quickly, the skin is soft immediately after use. The only small minus from my point of view is the scent, which is quite neutral but noticeable. I think the balm could be either unscented or with a sweet mango scent.

Maja, Łucja's mother (1 year and 11 months)

The balm is amazing, it acts as a delicate mousse on the skin and soothes dry skin. I like the bottle with a convenient pump that can be closed and child-proof. The balm is very efficient.

Katarzyna, mother of Zosia (1 year and 1 month)

The balm does its job - it has a light consistency, moisturizes and leaves a light, pleasant film on the skin. The skin looks healthier. With regular use, it improves the condition of dry skin in problem areas such as elbows and knees. Additionally, the balm absorbs quickly, which is a great advantage in the case of a cosmetic for children.

Paulina, Laura's mother (8 months)

The balm is delicate and at the same time effective. Very pleasant to the touch, not heavy and absorbs well into the skin. Moisturizes and soothes dry, allergic skin, relieving symptoms and improving comfort.

Anna, mother of Rysiek (12,5 years old)

Even though the baby's skin was not problematic, I still noticed an improvement in its quality and a significant improvement in the skin on my hands. The balm has a very delicate consistency, absorbs well and provides excellent lubrication.

My son has major skin problems. He has dry, red patches on his folds and a huge, itchy rash on his neck. We have tried four other creams/ointments, one from a doctor's prescription and nothing. This one took just 5 days and there is a huge difference. I would spend thousands on this cream if I had to. It is effective and works. I have photos showing the obvious improvement. I am grateful that I was given such a great product to test.

Wiktoria, mother of a 6-month-old baby

Very gentle product. It did not cause allergies and moisturized my child's skin very well. The skin became soft after a few days and the irritation of atopic dermatitis decreased.

Katarzyna, mother of a 3-year-old child

My son has no diagnosed skin problems. However, he often has rough skin and small pimples. After regular use of the balm, the skin quickly became smoother. I liked its consistency. It spreads easily and absorbs quickly, which is important to me with a 6-year-old energetic child. It does not have an irritating smell as it happened with other balms from other brands.

Kinga, mother of a 6-year-old child

The product has a very convenient packaging. The consistency is perfect, it doesn't run, spreads nicely and absorbs quite quickly, so it doesn't stain clothes. The skin is moisturized, delicate. Even my son's rough and constantly scraped knees look better after treatment with this balm.

Natalia, mother of a 6-year-old child

Light consistency, easy dosing, delicate scent but not entirely to my liking.

Karolina, mother of a one-year-old child

Very nice product, convenient packaging and absorbs quickly.

Agnieszka, mother of a 6-month-old baby

I am very pleased with this product, it absorbs very well, the child uses it with pleasure and does not have dry skin which happened very often with it.

Agnieszka, mother of a 3-year-old child

We are mega happy with the improvement in the appearance and hydration of the skin. It is more radiant and mega pleasant to the touch.

Paulina, mother of a one-year-old child

I expected a mango scent, but I read that it is an unscented product, which was a plus, easy to apply, the baby's skin redness decreased, so I'm satisfied.

Wiktoria, mother of a one-year-old child

Used by us for the first time, probably not the last. Great composition, easy to spread, no streaks left on the body. The child's skin is well moisturized, not sticky after use.

Monika, mother of a 10-month-old baby

Easy application, pleasant, nice consistency, no irritation, elimination of itching and redness.

Monika, mother of a 4-year-old child

Super consistency as for me plus is that it is not greasy and absorbs quickly. It quickly disappears the feeling of itching and redness, moisturizes the skin well.

Sylwia, mother of an 11-year-old child

The skin was smoother, more moisturized, and the hydration lasted quite long.

Agata, mother of a 6-year-old child

The balm spreads very well. My baby's skin is moisturized, free of redness, very soft compared to other products used.

Marlena, mother of a 4-month-old baby

The balm absorbs nicely and leaves the skin soft and pleasant to the touch. After a few days, the skin was noticeably better, less dry and smoother. It's great that the balm is fragrance-free, I'm sure that the fragrances won't irritate the baby.

Karolina, mother of a 5-year-old child

Absorbs quickly, the dispenser dispenses too much balm at once, continuity of use is important.

Kasia, mother of a 4-year-old child

I am very pleased, especially in the autumn period the balm turned out to be beneficial.

Ewelina, mother of a one-year-old child

Correct.

Sandra, mother of a 1,5-year-old child

I wasn't very impressed with this product.

Alicja, mother of an 18-month-old child

The product is too "substantial" enough. Its very light formula did not work on the baby's dry and reddened skin.

Katarzyna, mother of a 5-month-old baby

The balm has a distinctive, very pleasant, satin consistency. It absorbs very well. It quickly relieves tension, dryness and itching.

Joanna, mother of a 7-year-old child

It moisturizes perfectly, which I find improves the itching.

Edyta, mother of a 6-month-old baby

The balm has a good composition, but the effects after 2 weeks of use are not satisfactory.

Patrycja, mother of a 10-month-old, 2,5-year-old and 4-year-old child

The balm has a convenient pump, thanks to which applying the product is pure pleasure. The cosmetic spreads very well, absorbs quickly and does not leave a greasy, sticky layer. After using it, the skin is smooth, moisturized and clearly soothed. Redness becomes less visible. After the first application, you can see an improvement in the condition of the skin. The baby does not scratch as often as before, so the cosmetic brings clear relief. This is a real rescue for skin struggling with atopic dermatitis. The balm is very efficient, just a small amount of the product is enough to spread on the child's skin.

Jolanta, mother of a 7-month-old baby

This is a good product for children with atopic dermatitis, from pleasant application through quick absorption and quickly visible effects.

Anna, mother of a 3,5-year-old child

My daughter has problems especially in the folds so we didn't use the cream on the whole body only on specific spots and redness. In our case, testing this cosmetic would be more effective in the summer when the symptoms are more severe. There were situations when after applying it to the redness, my daughter complained for a few minutes that a given place burned her more

Dorota, mother of a 4-year-old child

The product turned out to be perfect for my child. Moisturizes, dry spots on the body as well as on elbows and knees disappeared after regular use. Does not cause allergies.

Kinga, mother of a 5-year-old child

I am satisfied.

Marta, mother of a 5,5-year-old child

Relief for the baby, super absorbent, perfect product.

Edyta, mother of a 12-month-old baby

My son had no problem letting me apply it, especially at night. His skin was softer with each day of use and the changes and dryness did not return so quickly. He did not wake up at night scratching. I had the impression that after a few days of use, a protective layer was created on the skin. Only on his face did he not allow me to apply it, as if the smell irritated him.

Agnieszka, mother of a 2-year-old child

My daughter really didn't like applying the balm. She complained a lot about the smell. After it was absorbed, she was happy that her skin wasn't so dry anymore.

Agnieszka, mother of a 4-year-old child

At first I really liked the smell. Which is very subtle, almost powdery with a light fruity note. Then the consistency. Not greasy. Light. Spreads well on the skin. Very efficient product. 2-3 pump portions are enough for an entire one-year-old child and the mother still uses the tip 😉 nice product. The children liked it. It combined care with massage and building closeness. Even the 6-year-old was happy to use it. Although he had no problems with irritation this time, he did have damage (abrasions) from playgrounds and skate parks. I decided to check if they would heal better. I had the impression that the skin regenerated faster and better when using the balm. The abrasions disappeared faster and the skin was nice and without any traces of dryness later. A very nice product also for traces of all kinds of rashes. My son had a suspicion of chickenpox which turned out to be some other viral reaction and these spots dried up, so we applied the balm to them because they were itchy. And it helped. They quickly decreased and stopped itching. My younger daughter clearly felt an improvement in skin hydration. It was soft again like a newborn ❤️ the product also worked well on the face for wind-dried skin. I highly recommend it. I was positively surprised. I didn't think it would work so well.

Adriana, mother of a 6-year-old and a XNUMX-year-old

The balm has a very nice consistency, but my daughter says the smell is unbearable.

Beata, mother of an 8-year-old child

Great product for a young mother and baby. Efficient, beautiful scent. Perfect consistency.

Natalia, mother of a 7-month-old baby

It's great. It absorbs quickly, softens the skin, moisturizes it wonderfully and reduces holiday. It doesn't irritate and reduces redness.

Natalia, mother of a 3-year-old child

The balm helped my son a lot. The irritations under the knees and in the folds and on the face decreased. The balm has a nice smell and absorbs quickly. It does not leave a film on the skin.

Diana, mother of an 8-month-old and a 5-year-old child

While using the Hypoallergenic Regenerating and Soothing Balm for Children by Mangomica, I noticed that the balm worked quickly, the redness in the child quickly disappeared and had a soothing effect, it also helped a lot to relieve the rash on the child's broken collarbone, where the skin in the folds was very red and irritated, after just one day the skin looked regenerated, a pleasant smell that does not bother the child, made it possible to spread it more thoroughly on the skin, after applying the balm to the child's skin, I did not feel the need to wash my hands as after other balms.

Marzena, mother of a 3-year-old and a 15-year-old child

The balm moisturizes the skin, creating a delicate, non-sticky filter, is efficient and has a delicate, pleasant scent.

Monika, mother of a 5-year-old child

Great product

Agnieszka, mother of a 6-month-old baby

Pleasant application, light consistency. Easy to spread, after the first use you can feel that the skin is moisturized and pleasant to the touch.

Aleksandra, mother of a 5-month-old and a 2-year-old child

I tested the cream on my 5-year-old child who struggles with atopic dermatitis (AD), and I am very pleased with the results. The child's skin was very dry, red and prone to irritation, especially around the bends of the elbows and knees. After a few days of regular use of the cream, I noticed a significant improvement - the skin became more moisturized, and the redness gradually began to decrease. The cream has a light consistency, absorbs quickly and does not leave a greasy layer, which was a big plus for us, because the child does not like heavy products. Importantly, it did not cause burning or discomfort, even on very irritated areas. Regular use of this cream helped us significantly alleviate the symptoms of AD, which had a positive effect on the child's well-being. I definitely recommend it for children with similar skin problems.

Julia, mother of a 5-year-old child

Great product for my baby. Works well for irritations. Reduces redness. It is the first balm that works so well, the baby's body reacts fantastically to it.

Dominika, mother of an 8-month-old baby

The balm spreads very nicely on the skin, does not leave a greasy film and absorbs quite quickly, so you do not have to wait long to put clothes on your child. My child had dry "flakes", which softened a lot during use. My son's skin, which was prone to all sorts of pimples, improved. The only downside to the balm for me is the smell.

Natalia, mother of a 6-month-old and a 2-year-old child

The balm perfectly moisturizes the skin and soothes itchy skin.

Karolina, mother of an 8-month-old baby

I am very pleased with the use of the Mangomica regenerating and soothing balm. It worked great for us. First of all, it comes in a convenient package with a pump that doesn't get stuck. Big applause for that👏 secondly, it is convenient to apply and spread easily on my son's body. Thirdly, the redness and dryness of the skin actually decreased visibly after a few days from the start of the tests.

Ewa, mother of an 11-month-old baby

Everything is OK, the product fulfills its purpose, I am not able to assess whether it is better than similar products bought in the pharmacy, although it seems to be a reasonable choice for parents.

Piotr, father of a 6-year-old child

It's a good balm, it moisturizes the skin, although I have the impression that the moisturizing is not long-lasting. I think the product is a bit too emollient.

Małgorzata, mother of a 10-year-old child

Easy absorption, pleasant consistency, smooth moisturized skin.

Alina, mother of a 5-year-old child

This is a product with a very good composition, excellent absorbency and very good effect.

Iwona, mother of a 21-month-old child

Overall, I am pleased with the balm's effect, it moisturizes and soothes skin lesions.
