Baby Bodhi Butter | All-Purpose Baby Balm

Pure comfort for delicate beginnings.

100ml £20.00 | Safe from birth

One balm, so many little uses.

Baby Bodhi Butter is a rich, fragrance-free botanical balm made for the kind of skin that needs very little, just gentle, reliable care.

Use it all over after a bath, on dry cheeks, little hands, flaky patches, dribble-prone skin, the nappy area, or anywhere delicate skin feels dry, exposed or in need of a little extra protection.

Baby Bodhi Butter was inspired by vernix, the protective coating babies are born with. The idea was simple: support delicate skin with a rich, fragrance-free balm and leave out anything it doesn’t need. There are no essential oils and no added fragrance. 

Best For

• Newborn and baby skin
• All-over daily moisturising
• Dry cheeks and little hands
• Flaky or rough-feeling patches
• Dribble-prone areas
• Nappy-area barrier care
• After-bath nourishment
• Cold and windy weather
• Sensitive or easily overwhelmed skin
• Families wanting a very simple skincare routine

One Jar, Lots of Little Jobs

This is the jar that tends to end up beside the changing mat, in the bathroom, in the changing bag and occasionally somewhere nobody can remember putting it.

Use a small amount wherever skin needs it.

After bathing, massage it into slightly damp skin.

Before going outside, smooth a little over cheeks and hands when the weather is cold or windy.

Use it around dribble-prone areas when skin needs extra protection from moisture.

Apply it to the nappy area as part of everyday barrier care.

And when you find one of those mysterious little dry patches babies seem to collect, you already have something simple to reach for.

That is really the point of Baby Bodhi Butter. Fewer products, fewer decisions, less clutter.

Why We Kept It Unscented

Babies do not need fragrance added to their skincare.

Baby Bodhi Butter contains no essential oils and no artificial fragrance, so its scent is simply the natural smell of the ingredients themselves.

That makes it a lovely option for newborns, delicate skin and anyone who prefers skincare without added aroma.

It also means the ritual stays beautifully simple.

Warm a little between your hands, massage slowly into the skin and let touch do most of the talking.


Create a Gentle Beginning

Baby Bodhi Butter can be used completely on its own, which is one of the things I love about it.

If you would like to turn bath time into a slightly slower ritual, it also sits at the heart of our Gentle Beginnings collections, alongside simple botanical bathing and cleansing essentials for newborn skin.

Ingredient spotlight

• Squalane:
Inspired by the natural squalene found in vernix (the coating babies are born with), squalane locks in hydration and helps maintain soft, comfortable skin from the very first day.

• Calendula-Infused Sunflower Oil:
One of the gentlest botanicals in nature's pharmacy, calendula has been used for centuries to soothe and comfort delicate skin. Traditionally beloved by herbalists for its gentle, nurturing qualities.

• Shea Butter:
Rich in fatty acids and vitamins, shea butter deeply moisturises and softens, wrapping delicate skin in lasting nourishment.

• Beeswax:
Forms a gentle breathable shield that locks in moisture and helps protect against wind, cold and dribble, without clogging pores.

Every ingredient chosen with one intention: to give the most delicate skin on earth the gentlest, most honest care possible. Free from essential oils, artificial fragrance and synthetics.

Safe from birth.

Allergens present

Free from essential oils and artificial fragrance. If you have sensitive skin or known allergies, perform a patch test before use. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Ritual use

Warm a small amount between your fingertips and gently smooth over your baby's skin, especially after bath time when skin is soft and slightly damp.

Use wherever comfort is needed: dry cheeks, tiny hands, nappy area, behind the ears, or any patches prone to dryness or sensitivity.

Let it become a moment of quiet connection...a soothing touch that nourishes skin and deepens the bond between you and your little one.

For the perfect bedtime ritual, pair with Settle and Soothe. A warm, calming soak followed by this gentle balm. Soft skin, settled baby, peaceful night.
