Review: C-J's original BUTTer

C-J's original BUTTer nappy/diaper balm has recently arrived into the uk and are available to purchase with babybots.co.uk or you can also purchase direct from the states at www.cjsewingroom.com. C-J is a work at home mum of 3 from Colorado springs and all her products are made from natural ingredients.
I got to try some samples before they were launched into the uk and received them from usa in about 1 week.  As eager as i was i ripped open the packaging with a big smile on my face as this nappy balm is very highly rated in usa, its safe to use with reusable nappies which is a big thumbs up for me as we are cloth users or you could call me a clothbotoholic. My baby girl Freya has lately suffered with quite bad nappy rash where her skin has blistered sometimes causing it to bleed, so you can see why i was so excited to get testing.
The tubs are plain white with a handmade sticker with CJ's butter, product scent and list of ingredients . On opening the tub (small tester pot) I opened 'Monkey farts' yup this is the scent name for this balm and oh boy the smell was amazing, almost like a tropical fruity smell it smelt divine. I also received 'unscented' and 'mango,sugar & mint' and this one is gorgeous too i was very impressed. The BUTTer is made with all natural ingredients Shea butter, olive oil, coconut oil, lanolin, beeswax, cocoa butter and vitamin E. It's really easy to apply to the skin it melts slightly with the warmth of your finger and doesn't have any greasy feeling that some balms can leave and a little goes a long way. Although Freya's rash didn't completely disappear (she needed antibiotics & steroid cream) it did help soothe it and prevented the blisters from cracking and bleeding. Her rash has since been treated with the prescribed cream and has cleared up so im now using CJs as a preventative at each nappy change and hey its working, no rash and no blistering. This product gets the thumbs up from us.

Price: £6.99 for 4oz tub in the uk.
