Many families lovingly apply kajal or surma to newborn babies because of old traditions, but parents and caregivers should know that it may not always be safe for babies. Some types of surma and kajal can contain harmful substances like lead, which may affect a baby’s delicate eyes and overall health. Babies have very sensitive skin and eyes, so applying untested products can cause irritation, infections, allergies, watering of the eyes, or even serious health problems over time. Parents should avoid putting kajal, surma, or homemade eye products on newborns and infants without medical advice. Instead, keep the baby’s eyes clean with soft cotton and clean water if needed. Loving care, hygiene, breastfeeding, proper sleep, and regular doctor checkups are much more important for a baby’s healthy growth than traditional cosmetic practices. Families, especially grandparents and elders, should be gently informed that modern medical advice recommends avoiding these products for infant safety. A baby’s health and comfort should always come first. Awareness among parents can help protect babies from unnecessary risks and keep them healthy, happy, and safe during their early months of life. #BabyCare #NewbornCare #ParentingTips #InfantSafety #HealthyBaby 👶🍼✨ - @sweetie87959
