I prefer to use glass over plastic as much as possible and where safe to do so as dishwashers typically discolour plastic. These are a perfect alternative to plastic!

B.Box Body Protect Nappy + Barrier Cream Airless Jar 100ml
The relatively new B.Box baby body range caught my eye as all the products are refillable from pouches instead of continuously purchasing bottles!
B.Box Body Soothe Mineral Bath Soak 350ml
As with the other B.Box products on this list, refill pouches are available. Super environmentally friendly
B.Box Body Cleanse Hair + Body Wash 350ml
This body lotion is super gentle on the skin. Also refillable from a pouch
B.Box Body Hydrate All Over Body Lotion 350ml
Be careful as oil can make a baby super slippy dippy. It's great to add a few drops into a bath for an extra moisture boost, and is also refillable from a pouch.
B.Box Body Nourish Body Oil 150ml
I've loved using these wipes for Freya. Thick enough to not have 💩 soak through, but thin enough to get in all the nooks and crannies
