What does this time of year mean to your family? To us it means picnics, day trips and lots of fresh air. Unfortunately for my poor 6 year he also has to deal with hay fever which means itchy eyes and a snuffy nose. I’ve never suffered with hay fever but my husband does and was able to recognise his symptoms. I spent a while looking for something to ease his symptoms and have recently been trying out HayMax Kids allergen barrier balm.
HayMax Kids allergen barrier balm is a prevention rather than a cure and acts to trap pollen, dust or pet allergen before it enters the body. It comes in a little pot which can be applied around the nose. It’s so simple to use and my 6 year old quite liked the fact that he had his own little pot of balm and could apply it himself. He’s not allowed to take any thing to school but I found if we applied it in the morning it lasted well throughout the school day. HayMax is 100% natural, organic and drug free, so it’s suitable for children and pregnant and breastfeeding women to use. You can find out more on the HayMax website.
We were also sent some Incognito insect repellent, and Salcura Bioskin Junior bath milk both of which have been really useful. My 4 year old has eczema so we go through lots of bath products to help soothe her skin. The Bioskin Junior bath milk is free for SLS, Lanolin, Parabens, Steroids, Parrafin and Artificial Ingredients and helps to cleanse, soften and soothe skin. The children haven’t noticed me pouring it in the bath but I’ve noticed how lovely their skin is after using it.

May 22, 2016 at 1:38 pmSneezing! Which I know all too well as I’ve spent the past two or three weeks sneezing every five seconds or it feels like anyway. I’m like a sneeze machine since it got hot and pollen-y.
