If your baby’s been prescribed a cream for eczema and you’re wondering, “Is this safe?” — this video is for you.
Hi, I’m Kasturi, co-founder of Oleum Cottage and a sensitive skincare expert. In this video, we’re breaking down what many parents aren’t told about topical steroid creams for baby eczema — from how they work, to the hidden risks, and what safer, natural alternatives exist for long-term care.
🧴 Here’s what we’ll cover:
✔️ What eczema types are most common in babies
✔️ How to spot if your baby’s cream contains a steroid
✔️ Why baby skin absorbs more and reacts differently than adult skin
✔️ Questions you must ask your pediatrician or pharmacist
✔️ Side effects of long-term or unsupervised steroid use
✔️ The “steroid cycle” trap most parents get stuck in
✔️ Expert advice on short-term use
✔️ Natural, baby-safe alternatives to support your little one’s skin
✨ Eczema doesn’t have to be a never-ending cycle of flare-ups and steroid creams. Awareness is power — and gentle care goes a long way.
