My 7 month old daughter had some persistent cradle cap that we were struggling to get rid of. First, we tried simply combing with a small comb during her shampoo.

Some of the reviews complain about the smell but I think they have changed their formula. It smells like a light flowery lotion, I didn't think it was bad at all.

I am very pleased and will use it again tonight!!
