How to Protect Baby’s Skin in Winter Weather

Winter Skin Needs More Support

As the seasons shift and the air turns crisp, your baby’s skin needs more than just basic care—it needs intention. In winter, baby skin loses moisture faster than adult skin, making it more vulnerable to dryness, irritation, and chapping. Cold outdoor air, dry indoor heat, and less humidity all work against your baby’s natural skin barrier.

At Mavey Jaymes, we believe every family deserves skincare that’s pure, natural, and effective—especially when skin needs extra protection. That’s why our 3-step winter skin routine is designed to gently cleanse, deeply hydrate, and lock in moisture using nature’s gentlest ingredients .

Why Layering Works

Think of your baby’s winter skincare routine like bundling up for a walk in the cold: you wouldn’t put a coat on bare skin—you layer.

Layered skincare works the same way:

✓ A warm bath opens pores and prepares skin to absorb moisture

✓ Lightweight hydration replenishes what winter takes away

✓ A rich sealant locks it all in

Each layer plays a role in keeping baby skin soft, soothed, and protected—even in the harshest weather.

Our 3-Step System for Happy, Hydrated Skin 🖤

1. Cleanse Gently

Start with our soon-to-launch Shampoo + Body Wash, a calming 2-in-1 formula crafted with aloe, coconut oil, and sweet almond oil. Designed to gently cleanse without stripping delicate skin, this nourishing wash lays the foundation for your baby’s winter skincare routine. Infused with lavender and rosemary, it creates a soft lather that soothes the senses and prepares skin to receive lasting hydration.

2. Hydrate Deeply

Follow with a layer of our Organic Baby Oil or Body Serum. Both are crafted with fast-absorbing botanicals like jojoba, marula, and aloe to deliver deep hydration that doesn’t sit on top of the skin. They absorb beautifully and help restore softness, elasticity, and balance .

3. Seal + Soothe

Finish with Body Butter—our whipped, plant-rich balm that seals in moisture with shea butter, oat kernel extract, and organic glycerin. Its calming lavender-vanilla scent creates a relaxing ritual, while the rich texture locks in all the goodness from step 2 .

Want a sustainable way to keep it going? Refill it with our Body Butter Refill, the same nourishing formula in a recyclable insert .

Why This Matters for Winter Skin

Dry, delicate skin isn’t just a seasonal nuisance—it can cause discomfort, disrupt sleep, and lead to more frequent skin concerns. By layering care, you’re not just hydrating—you’re protecting your baby’s skin barrier so it can do what it’s meant to do: keep your little one safe and comfortable.

Layering also helps create a moment of connection. Bathtime becomes more than just a routine—it becomes a ritual of care. Each step is an opportunity to bond, soothe, and share the warmth your baby needs most during colder months.

Layer Up for Winter Time 🖤

In the colder months, layering isn’t just for clothing—it’s the key to calm, comfortable skin. With nature’s gentlest ingredients, our winter skin system protects against the dryness and irritation that winter can bring. Pure, safe, and thoughtfully made, each step supports the bond between you and your baby—because caring for skin should always feel like caring for family.
