Does anyone not like Johnsons baby products?
For my son’s baby shower we received a ton of Johnsons lotions and baby washes. I know that they are the tried and true standard for baby products, but I don’t really like them. The smell of the lotion bugs be, and they don’t seem to work well for my son’s skin. The lotion seems to be more drying than moisturizing, as well as the baby wash. We started using Aveeno baby, which has worked really well for him.
Does anyone feel the same, or does anyone swear by Johnsons? Why or why not? Thanks!

I also like the aveno better. It makes my DD’s skin softer and I prefer that it’s unscented. Just bought her the baby aveno SPF 55 sunblock. Her skin is so soft from it!
If you really don’t like it, don’t use it! Donate to a local women’s shelter.
I love the way they smell, but I’ve read from several sources that babies don’t really need the lotions and stuff (because it could dry out their skin like you said).
We started out using Johnsons…the only one I couldn’t stand is the lavender lotion…after the regular baby lotion, we switched to a cocoa butter wash and lotion, which smelled awesome. My son started getting really dry skin, so we switched to Aveeno Baby (which is made by Johnsons anyways!), and have been using those ever since.
I use Johnsons’ on my two older kids, but not my newborn. I use Huggies brand with Shea Butter for him becasue he’s only 9 days old and his skin is still super dry. When he’s a little older, I’ll probably start using Johnson’s on him. Aveeno is too expensive! I use Aveeno diaper rash cream, but that’s it. Huggies works just as well and it’s not as pricy.
I like Aveeno too, and am also very picky on scents, and cant stand that yellow lotion they always put in the Clinique bonus buy bag.
I never like Johnson’s. I always used Huggies and Grins and Giggles (Which I can’t find hardly anywhere anymore!) I stand by Huggies products, even their diaper rash cream got rid of a rash as fast as Destin or Balmex. The Boudreaux Butt Paste did nothing for him.
theres a brand of baby products called ” my lil angel” or sumthing like that and i think those smell the best and the lotion works good. plus, its more on the cheap side as far as money goes!! but really, i do use johnsons alot! i have no complaints about it!!
