Soft as a LAMM Bum Balm: 3 (or 4) ingredients

Happy Monday! I sit here in utter disbelief that its about to be February! Where is the time going already?!

Like many mommy's, I am usually on the prowl for a safer, more natural way to treat my baby girls ailments. I was so excited to give the "homemade" route a try and went to town on ordering and shopping for the ingredients I would need to successfully do so.

I am a huge proponent of Baby Aquaphor and Burt's Bee's multi purpose ointments. They are my everyday use products that keep my little Princess smoothe bottomed & free of diaper rash- redness.

That being said- I plan to use the homemade ointment intermittently while still using my go-to products.

* Be mindful to always test each ingredient on your child's skin to ensure no allergic reaction!*


My first attempt is homemade *NATURAL* diaper cream/ointment. This is what I did and what products I used:

Organic Beesworks White Beeswax Pellets $11.78 (14 oz) Amazon
Coconut Oil
Not pictured: Organic Shea Butter, Lavender Essential Oil

Step 1: Melt together 1/2 cup Shea Butter, 1/2 cup coconut oil and 2 tbsp Beeswax

Step 2: Once melted, pour into your 4 oz jar (Mine are from the Target dollar section & are adorable!)

Step 3: Cool & cap! The balm will be the consistency of a lip-balm once set.

Step 4: For a creamier, more pliable texture- I suggest whipping your balm. If you elect to do this--- step 4 is actually your step 3. While whipping, add in 10 to 15 drops of your Lavender essential oil. If you are using an adjusted amount of shea butter and coconut oil[aka Carrier Oil] (ie: making a smaller batch), you will use LESS Lavender Oil.

Once whipped, re-fill the container and you're ready to use your homemade booty balm!

Again, please be sure to always check with your pediatrician before trying any new products---especially if your little has any sensitivities!

Wishing all of your littles a happy, comfy bum!
