According to a study published in Clinical Dermatology, applying a skincare oil designed for newborn skin significantly improved skin conditions in healthy full-term newborns.

Furthermore, the study suggests that the two skincare regimens [(group 1: Skincare oil + cleansing oil), (group 2: Cleansing oil)] did not differ significantly in their effects on the physiological course of skin barrier maturation, skin pH changes, or the development of the microflora.
