About ten days ago I took Fergus to the pediatrician to check out a painful-looking rash that had developed on his cheeks. She took one look and diagnosed dry skin. Winter is hard on a baby!
I started applying olive oil to his face and scalp, but found it hard to control when Fergus wriggled. I switched to Badger Baby Balm and within a few days his skin was soft and clear.
Badger Baby Balm is 100% organic, made from extra virgin olive oil, beeswax, essential oil of chamomile, and calendula extract. It melts into Fergus’s skin and it smells great.


I'm a writer and the mother of William and Fergus. Before dedicating my work to children's environmental health, I earned an MA in Cultural Reporting and Criticism from New York University and was a photography editor at The New Yorker. My family is preparing to move to New Orleans, where my husband, an architect, is building us a non-toxic home.
