Another Rave about Cyleina Peruvian Cacao Whipped Butter Cream

If you've been reading my blog, you probably know that I heart Cyleina Peruvian Cacao Whipped Butter Cream and now I must declare that I heart 1000x Cyleina Peruvian Cacao Whipped Butter Cream. You see, I've started applying this on my one-year-old's skin in the hopes of conquering her rashes and it worked!

You see, my daughter, Kulit, has really sensitive skin. She's had rashes since day one and I can never figure out the cause. I've tried all kinds of diapers and she can only use Prokids and Magic Dry. Good luck trying out the rest because if she wears anything other than diapers, she's toast (or sores).

Lately, I was at my wit's end because she's developing rashes even without eating chicken, wearing Prokids, and only after she has bathed. And of course, I couldn't bathe her in oil, right, like Elphaba in Wicked? I was tempted to bathe her in mineral water just to see if she was allergic to chlorine.Then, I noticed that she also develops rashes after she's been to an air-conditioned room. Could it be that she's allergic to the cold? I was ready to bring her to a pedia-allergologist and began sending out feelers in Girltalk to know about other women's experiences with them. You can check out the thread here.

Good thing, a Girltalk sister, sis leletmd, suggested that she might have cold urticaria. She explained it really well and she said, when you have cold urticaria, your skin tends to be dry and hence, itchy. So when you scratch your skin, you develop rashes. She suggested that I moisturize my baby's skin. So I did, and yay! My baby is rash-free since the day I applied Cyleina Peruvian Cacao Whipped Butter Cream! Of course, you might have the same results with other moisturizers but it makes me feel good knowing that our lotion is paraben-free, organic, and unscented. So now, part of my bonding time is applying the peruvian cacao on my daughter's skin and she loves it.

I got the Peruvian Cacao Whipped Butter Cream as per your recommendation and I love it! I apply it every night before I go to sleep and wake up to smooth skin :) Glad to know it works for your daughter as well :)

PS: Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it! :)

Leaving your child in an air-conditioned room for a long time would leave her skin dry, indeed. Same for me, after 8 hours in the office, my skin is pretty dry -- even my hands are cracked at times. I've heard about Cyleina before, but I haven't tried it. Seems like an interesting alternative to petroleum jelly.
