Product Overview

Gentle Protection for Delicate Skin

Baby skin is thin, delicate, and easily affected by moisture, friction, and frequent cleansing. Our Baby Bum & Body Salve was created as a gentle, protective balm to support the skin barrier when little bottoms — and little bodies — need extra care.

Every ingredient in this unscented formula was chosen with sensitive skin in mind. Organic calendula, plantain, and chickweed have a long history of use in baby care for helping keep skin calm and comfortable when irritation shows up.

We begin with extra-virgin olive oil slowly infused with these botanicals, then enrich the blend with unrefined evening primrose oil and natural beeswax. Together, they create a soft, breathable barrier that helps seal in moisture and protect skin from wetness and friction — two of the biggest contributors to redness and diaper rash on baby bottoms.

Applied to clean, dry skin during diaper changes, this salve helps minimize ongoing moisture exposure, reduce rubbing from diapers, and soothe the visible redness and discomfort that often accompany diaper rash. It is safe for both cloth and disposable diapers.

For Diaper Changes

Applied to clean, dry skin, this salve helps:

reduce ongoing exposure to moisture
minimize friction from diapers
soothe the look of redness and irritation
keep skin feeling soft and comfortable between changes

More Than a Bum Balm

In our family, this has long been the salve that everyone reaches for — the one kept close for everyday skin moments. We’ve used it on our children and grandchildren for rough or dry patches, minor scrapes and “boo-boos,” cradle cap care, and the little skin flare‑ups that come with growing, exploring, and weather changes.

It’s gentle enough for babies, yet comforting for grown‑ups who secretly don’t mind being babied too.

What It’s Commonly Used For

Diaper rash support
Cradle caprealted dryness
Dry or rough skin patches
Minor everyday skin discomforts
Cloth-diaper friendly protection

Pure, Simple Care

Made with only organic herbs, olive oil, evening primrose oil, and beeswax, our salve contains no:

petrolatum or petroleum derivatives
synthetic fragrances or colors
alcohol
preservatives
mineral oil
artificial additives

Simple protection for delicate skin, right where it’s needed most.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Use Your Products on my Baby or Young Children?

We often receive questions as to whether our soaps, shampoos, and other items are safe to use on young children.

A baby’s skin, so thin and delicate, is no place for harmful synthetic chemicals.

Sadly, even some of the most trusted baby brands add nasty chemicals to their products.

Read the label on a bar of commercial baby soap or shampoo. Read the label on a bottle of commercial baby oil. Now read the ingredients in Chagrin Valley products.

We recommend starting with our Milk & Honey Baby Soap. We also recommend our two Castile soaps and Carrot & Honey Soap. They are unscented and, as with all of our products, contain no artificial ingredients!

My grandkids use our Milk & Honey bar as a baby shampoo--just keep the soap away from their eyes.

When you think your child is ready, try some new soaps.

As with all new products, it is best to do a skin patch test prior to full usage to test for any skin allergies or sensitivities. If you have any questions or concerns always check with your doctor or health care professional.

It is best to add only one new soap or product at a time and use it for a while before switching to a new soap.

Essential Oils & Children: We do not provide information on the safety of essential oils for use in Children because the available information is very ambiguous and often contradictory. If you are interested in using essential oils with young children please consult your health care professional before use.

Please do not ask us to diagnose your child's skin problems, we are not health care professionals. Our recommendations are based on what our customers have shared.

Are Chagrin Valley Ingredients & Products USDA Certified Organic?

Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve is a USDA Certified Organic Company

The most important consideration in any business is its customers. Today's world of misleading claims, false advertising, and simple deception, often leaves consumers trying to discover the truth about personal products and their ingredients.

We want our customers to know that we are committed to transparency in everything we do.
We want our customers to know that when we say "organic," we mean it.
We believe that in becoming a USDA Certified Organic company, our customers do not have to wonder if we really use certified organic ingredients or if our organic products are truly organic.
So we choose to be a certified organic company and abide by the strict standards required for organic certification.

Some of my favorite products are made with ingredients that just do not exist as certified organic. Why? At this time there are no standards created for ingredients specifically used in the personal care product industry. Organic certification of personal care products is based on the organic food standards set by the National Organic Program of the USDA.

But since we are a certified organic company, we are required to submit documentation that even our "non-organic ingredients" were produced without the use of toxic pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), sewage sludge, or irradiation.

Is There an Expiration Date On My Natural Skincare Product?

Product Expiration Dates

Natural Organic Skin Care Products We hand make all of our own products in small batches to ensure freshness, consistency, and perfection.

Our products are not made to sit on store shelves for years and years.

Although there are natural preservatives within the chemical structure of many natural ingredients, they not as potent as the synthetic preservatives used in commercial products to prolong shelf-life.

Other than soap, our products are remade every few weeks and none are very old when they are sold. Our non-soap products should be opened within 6 months of purchase.

Since we use no preservatives or chemical stabilizers, the more important question is, "how long will the product last once it has been opened?

Once opened, skin care products become exposed to dirt and microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, and molds) that are found in the air and on the skin.

As soon as you open and begin to use any product, simply the way in which you use it will affect its lifespan.

So, we use the PAO (period-after-opening) symbol. These symbols are already available on the product pages of our website and we are in the process of adding them to all of our labels.

The POA symbol is a standard symbol that identifies the useful lifetime of a skin care product after it has been opened for the first time.

As you can see from the picture, the symbol is an open jar with a written number and the letter "M" for the word "months."

A product with a "9M" would mean that it is good for 9 months after opening.

Tip: write the date you open a product for the first time on its label so you can keep track of the period after opening.

Our POA number represents our best suggestion. There are many factors that can affect the lifespan of a product. If a product is discolored, has an unpleasant smell or looks odd, the product should not be used and should be discarded.

Each time you place your warm fingers into a tin or jar, you melt some of the butter which can change the consistency of the product.
Fingers also introduce bacteria and other contaminants into the product.
If a product has not been stored properly, for example, if the lid has been left off for long periods of time, the product may ‘go off’ before the period after opening has passed.
As scented products age, some of the natural essential oil scent may be lost. Pure essential oils just do not have the staying power of synthetic fragrance oils.
Over time, natural colors may also fade.

If you’re like me, and you find an old dusty product hiding in a drawer, makeup bag, or even a suitcase from your last trip, you can call us with the lot number and we can verify its age. Obviously, if it seems off in any way, toss it!

Please note: This PAO symbol is widely used in Europe to recommend the length of time a product remains usable after opening, for products that have a shelf-life of at least 30 months. Our products do NOT have a shelf-life of 30 months before opening.

Do Chagrin Valley Natural Skincare Products Contain GMO's?
