Dr. Eddie’s Happy Cappy Daily Shampoo & Body Wash for Children, Soothes Dry, Itchy, Sensitive, Eczema Prone Skin, Dermatologist Tested, Fragrance Free, Dye Free, 8 oz
Feature
- A pediatrician's solution for soothing normal skin and dry, itchy, irritated, sensitive skin for children of all ages. The term "sensitive skin" definitely includes very dry or eczema-prone skin. 1 in 10 children are affected by eczema [1]. This gentle cleanser is an excellent companion to Dr. Eddie's Happy Cappy Medicated Shampoo & Body Wash.
- This moisturizing cleanser is dermatologist and clinically tested and is free of skin irritants like fragrance, dye, alcohol, sulfates, phthalates, and preservatives known as parabens. In fact, over 95% of our ingredients are of natural plant-based origin. Ingredients were carefully selected for their soothing properties-Oatmeal Extract, Licorice Root Extract, Aloe Vera, Provitamin B5, and Hyaluronic Acid. Happy Cappy is cruelty free and vegan.
- Happy Cappy complies with pediatric dermatologist recommendations for eczema by being a non-soap cleanser that is hypoallergenic, fragrance free and has a low pH [2]. Non-soap means that we do not use harsh surfactants that strip skin of its natural moisture. Happy Cappy has a low pH (unlike most other soaps) to match the pH of normal skin, which preserves the skin's barrier function [3].
- Generally, normal skin has a low pH (a pH from 4 to 6). Patients with eczema (atopic dermatitis) can have skin that becomes neutral to basic (high pH). The majority of soaps available on the market are basic (they have a pH of 9 to 10), and can alter negatively the pH of skin. Studies have shown, "maintaining a normal pH through appropriate therapy is well known to benefit disease states such as atopic dermatitis [3]."
