Winding down starts before lights out. Our lotion brings together magnesium, the soft aroma of lavender and chamomile, and a massage you can repeat each night. Let’s look at why we chose these ingredients and how the routine helps make bedtime feel familiar.

Magnesium is a mineral the body uses for normal nerve and muscle function. Our lotion contains magnesium chloride, putting this familiar mineral at the heart of the bedtime blend.

Your little one has been moving and playing all day. You rub in the lotion, they get your full attention, and you share one quiet minute together. It’s a simple way to say, ‘Let’s slow down now.’
Meet the bedtime lotion
The lotion has a soft lavender and chamomile scent. Use it during the same bedtime step each night, and that smell becomes one more familiar part of the routine.

Shea butter helps moisturize little skin. Oat and prebiotic inulin help care for it, too. So the same small step leaves skin feeling soft.

DermatKids Bedtime Lotion is made for little ones 3 months and up. It can also be used by older children as part of their bedtime routine.
It is made for children 3 months and up and has been dermatologically tested. Patch-test before the first use, use externally only, and stop using it if irritation occurs.
You can use it each night as part of a familiar bedtime routine. After a bath, gently massage it onto your child’s feet about 15 minutes before bed.
Every child is different. Some families may find the massage and familiar scent help bedtime feel calmer after a few nights, while others may take longer to settle into the routine. Sleep changes are not guaranteed.
The lotion is applied to the skin during a gentle massage instead of being swallowed. It also moisturizes with shea butter and oat and adds a soft lavender and chamomile aroma to bedtime.
