My Views and Reviews: Baby Liquid Talc by Mothercare - your answer .

I don't know about you but I know the feel of babies. they give this strange musky smell that is most heavenly and I miss smelling my pwincesh Jada after she grew out of that smell.

However, with the new little guy, the musky smell could get pretty intense. so vivid that I sometimes experience a little uncomfortable with it and I think that he is too.

I think with the super hot and humid weather we possess and the fact that he can't really support the air-condition, he would sweat so much, giving out an intense odour especially in the afternoon and the morning when he wakes up from sleep.

Now I for one, do not think in putting on talcum powder on babies. I don't. Studies have shown that it can do more damage than good. Once when Jada was sweating mad on a hot day, she developed some heat rashes and we decided to relinquish this feeling so that she can be more easy and dry. True enough, 3 years later, she started coughing and sneezing, with a runny nose. Once we stopped putting talcum powder, the job went away.

But seriously, I can't possibly stand seeing the small guy this way. He already has some heat rashes in the folds of his chubby neck and I can see that the sphere of the rashes have spread a little in a week. Thus, I think of this product I once tried on Jada when she was real little...

the Mothercare Baby Liquid Talc - yes, I got it during the current Mothercare sale :)

I am not certain if you can get any other brands with this miracle magic - it is a baby lotion that transforms into talc when the lotion dries up on baby's skin. Therefore, you pass the risk of loose talc flying in the air and inhaled into baby's respiratory system when you use it to your child as how normal baby powder works.

the product packaging states it all clearly...

The better role is, it smells awesome - fresh and clean. I know how the small guy now smells. if you intend the musky baby scent is heavenly, wait til your baby smells of this liquid talc :)

the entire description on the second label.

On a very warm day, Jebat will look fresh until around 1pm when he starts to sweat but since I would freshen him up before he sleeps, that will be the alone time when he smells musky.

Helllooo heaven, bubye musky.
