Honey Babe Range Review

I love the products introduced to us via this trial. All are well utilised. I am convinced those products can be a game-changer to the baby wellness industry!

Will I purchase them given the price, quality and overall factor? Definitely! This brand is one of the best (being NZ-made is a bonus!).

I was selected to take part in the trial team for this product. I was very excited when this package arrived, as first of all it was a mystery and second, it was Wild Fern! I recently discovered the wild fern range and I absolutely love it. The label is a yellow or golden orange ombre base with manuka flowers 'falling' over it. There is also a gold trim along the bottom, and the brand "Wild Ferms' is in gold. There is an adorable picture of a baby asleep on a manuka flower too. The barrier creme and the shampoo & wash have this design on them. The massage oil however comes in a box but is a plain white bottle with black writing. The only splash of color is the Honey Babe label. This may be because the sticker label may come off with the oil? All three products smell the same and have such a fantastic aroma. It's a nice light manuka smell. They all left his and my skin feeling great. I used all three products on my skin first (eczema prone hands) just to make sure they wouldn't cause a reaction. The barrier creme was great. It comes in a screw top tub with a solid plastic seal. The texture wasn't as thick as the eco store creme which I like. It also spread easily and I found I didn't need much. It also healed any problem areas in the same time frame that bepanthen did. (Note:they weren't bad problem areas, we try and catch them out before we actually need the antiseptic). I also found the creme was very soothing and healing on my own (eczema prone) hands. The massage oil was great. It comes in a bottle with a screw top lid. The only thing I found a problem was the tiny seal for the oil hold was a tiny individual pin that I needed my nails to get out. It was small enough that it could get lost very easily, or if your child is quick fingered like mine - could be a hazard. It absorbed into our skin quite nicely and it left my hands feeling like I had just moisturized them. His skin was left feeling nice and soft. The amount that I did manage to get into my sons skin had no effect on his eczema which was a bonus. The Shampoo & wash was also great. It comes in a small pump bottle which if you turn the nozzle left it locks it, or right to pump it. It also came with a locking clip on the neck of the pump to stop any accidental pump in transport. The texture was very much how I expected it to be - like a normal liquid soap. It is similar to the QV that we have been using on our sons skin. I did find that it did not foam much when using just my hands, but when we used a loofah it bubbled up a lot! I found two pumps more than enough to do our sons body and half a pump was enough for his hair. It left our sons hair nice and soft too, and did not aggravate his eczema or his cradle cap. I would absolutely recommend these three products. We will definitely be repurchasing these. The smell is divine and they work exactly how they say on the package - the fact that they don't aggravate his eczema is the main seller for me.

Wild Fern’s Honey Babe wow wow wow!!!! What amazing products you have created I am in love! From being all natural, animal friendly, paraben free, in recyclable packaging and made in New Zealand you have ticked all this Mummas boxes! All the products I tried were gentle on my daughters skin, smelt amazing & some even did more than they were suppose to. All information is clearly displayed on the boxes and bottles. We tried the honey babe massage oil - a great 100% natural product that isn’t super oily, easy to use. I also used it on the small amount of cradle cap my daughter had and it helped clear that up. It smells amazing. It comes in a 120ml bottle which is sold for $15.00 so really affordable. The honey babe gentle no tears shampoo & wash - amazing stuff 100% natural, very gentle on babies skin, comes in a pump top bottle for ease of use. Product size is 100mls for $12.00 which is super cheap for a 100% natural baby product. And the smell oh my gosh it’s devine reminds me of sherbert fizz lollies. What’s better than baby smell - baby smell & honey babe shampoo and wash that’s what! And last but not least the honey babe barrier creme - fantastic 99% natural barrier creme. Cleared up redness and prevented further irritation. A babies bottom is very sensitive and it’s such a relief to know that there is a product that is all natural and gentle on babies skin. Once again Wild Fern have delivered a fantastic product with a Devine smell this smell resembles honey cocoa butter. It comes in a 100ml pot for $14.40. It’s safe to say this product is now going to be a staple in our household. Try it you’ll love it.

The products are fantastic, not only do they smell like baby products should, making you reminisce when your little one was a fresh bundle. They do as they say they do with natural ingredient's that is clearly good for the skin as you are left with soft clear skin and shiny hair. This product will quickly become a new parent's must have as soon as the word gets around and will knock the socks off the other competitors. It is nice to have a New Zealand made product you can rely on with ingredients you can read and understand. It will be a staple in our home and a request on the baby shower list for then the final bundle arrives to fill our hearts.

I loved trialling these products on my precious little boy. I especially liked how all the products were made of no nasty chemicals and of all natural ingredients. The scent of each product in this range was appealing also. The packaging was simple, clear and effective thoughout the range of products. The baby wash and shampoo came in a small pump bottle. The pump was perfect to ensure that you don’t use too much and easy to use when you have a little one to control in the bath. 2-3 pumps was enough to wash my little one from top to toe. It lathered well and didn’t seem to irritate my little boys eyes or skin.

The Baby oil was another treat to use. It smelt wonderful and the small hole in the top of the bottle controlled the flow and ensured that you didn’t waste a bit. Only a very small amount is needed as a little goes along way. It left my baby’s skin feeling soft and smooth.

Finally the baby balm, it came in a small tub with screw on lid (if your child anything like mine the screw top was blessing as it prevented and deterred him from trying to get in to the balm while I had my hands occupied dressing him). The balm it’s self was luxurious. It was easily applied due to it soft and silky like texture. In the time using the balm my baby did not get any nappy rash or reaction of any sort.

I highly recommend all these products to any mother.

I was intrigued when I was selected for this trial - an NZ brand of baby care products.

The Honey Baby branding is super cute - babies in flowers, very Anne Geddes. The packaging is sturdy and practical, and all products could go in the baby bag without fear of leaking or spillage. Top marks there!

The products are clearly, and proudly NZ made, natural, cruelty free and packed full of manuka honey. I like knowing what I'm buying without having to read lots of small print!

The range is very lightly, but naturally scented, the body wash is a little stronger than the others, but it does dissipate.

I found all of the products effective - my favourite was the barrier creme, I found this really good on baby's bum, but also a super-lovely intensive repair creme for my hands!

These are at a really good price point, especially in the natural baby market which seems to be pricey usually. I've purchased similar natural barrier / multi purpose creams for $40 +. These would make a fab gift for new mums!

I absolutely loved this trial for my baby! All the products were natural and so gentle. Even versatile so mum can use them too, which is always great. I also appreciated that they were coming from a New Zealand brand and a affordable price.

The moment these products arrived I knew I would love it, from the cute picture of the little newborn baby on the box to reading it was made locally, to the heavenly sweet scent of honey. I had the barrier cream, body wash and shampoo and calming massage oil to try. First of all can I just say how beautiful and soft the fragrance is, it smelt so divine, I couldn't wait to start using it on bubs! The barrier cream was fabulous, thick and moisturizing and kept any sign of moisture that contributes to horrible nappy rash - at bay. My hands were even softer after using it in baby and I even began to use it as a moisturiser on my hands too! The body wash and shampoo was brilliant, I loved that it was a 2 in 1 so it cuts the time in half instantly, fiddling around with different bottles and products whilst trying to juggle bubs in the bath. It made her hair so soft and shiny and smelt great too. After her bath I applied the calming massage oil and quickly found that a little goes a long way and is very quickly absorbed by the skin. It was very moisturizing and she loved getting that little bit of extra t.l.c after her bath before bedtime. All in all I really liked this product and have already been recommending it to my other mummy friends. I love that it's 100% natural and locally made and not ridiculously priced either. I've already ordered the moisture creme and can't wait to try the soap bar too! Thanks beauty review and honey babe from me and mine xx
