Newborn skin normally does not require any oint­ments or creams. Especially avoid the application of any oil, ointment, or greasy substance, since this will almost always block the small sweat glands and lead to pimples or a heat rash. If the skin starts to become dry and cracked, use a baby lotion, hand lotion, or moisturizing cream twice daily. Cornstarch powder can be helpful for preventing rashes in areas of fric­tion. Avoid talcum powder because it can cause a serious chemical pneumonia if inhaled into the lungs
