Group Intervention Description Whole-body Balm + Wash and Shampoo Wash and Shampoo Parent participant will be instructed to apply the whole-body balm on the newborn baby's whole body (excluding the mouth, eyes, diaper area, and scalp) two times per day (morning and evening), and to cleanse the newborn baby with the wash and shampoo at least once per week and no more than three times per week up to Day 28. Whole-body Balm + Wash and Shampoo Whole-body Balm Parent participant will be instructed to apply the whole-body balm on the newborn baby's whole body (excluding the mouth, eyes, diaper area, and scalp) two times per day (morning and evening), and to cleanse the newborn baby with the wash and shampoo at least once per week and no more than three times per week up to Day 28.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline After 4 Weeks of Product Use in Clinical and Parental Evaluations of Skin tolerance Measures Change from baseline after 4 weeks Change from baseline after 4 weeks of product use in clinical and parental evaluations of skin tolerance measures will be reported. The clinical and parental evaluations of tolerance will be recorded on paper source documentation.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline After 7 Days of Product Use in Corneometer and Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) Measurements Change from baseline after 7 days Change from baseline after 7 days of product use in Corneometer and TEWL measurements will be reported. The Corneometer measures moisture content in the stratum corneum by an electrical capacitance method. Readings are proportional to the dielectric constant of the surface layers of the skin, and the results are displayed in arbitrary "Corneometer units" ranging from 0 to 120, with increasing values corresponding to more hydrated skin. TEWL is a equipment with open chamber TEWL probes to measure the TEWL of the skin. The non-invasive probe contains two sensors that measure the temperature and relative humidity at two fixed points along the axis normal to the skin surface.
Change From Baseline After 7 Days of Product Use in Clinical and Parental Evaluations of Skin Tolerance Measures Change from baseline after 7 days Change from baseline after 7 days of product use in clinical and parental evaluations of skin tolerance measures will be reported. The clinical and parental evaluations of tolerance will be recorded on paper source documentation.
Percentage of All Response Options for Each Question in the Parental Questionnaire Day 28 Percentage of all response options for each question in the parental questionnaire will be reported. parental questionnaire will be completed by the parent participants which include the questions about "how much do you agree after using balm" where 1 indicates 'strongly disagree', 2 indicates 'somewhat disagree', 3 indicates ;neither agree or disagree', 4 indicates 'somewhat agree', 5 indicates 'strongly agree'.
