The moment your little one is born your heart swells with unconditional love. Instantly you become this tiny little person’s protector and from the first day, you begin making promises that you’ll spend your lifetime upholding. From the first “boo boo” to the first bicycle ride without training wheels, the first day of school to the first school dance and everything in between, we promise our children that we will be behind them 100%.
Promises of support and encouragement as well as discipline and guidance continue as your children grow, especially in the teen years, like my daughter. Your patience and resolve will be tested time and again – such as on our recent 14 hour road trip – as you fulfill these promises. Keeping these promises isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it. Repeat after me: it’s always worth it!
Promises are important in my family and we expect that they are kept when made. That is why I’m impressed when companies do the same. Johnson’s Baby products have always been a favorite of mine. There’s something very simple, yet soothing about the shampoo and the lotions. I can reach for a bottle now and the scent brings back memories of when my daughter was little, splashing in the bathtub, warbling like a mermaid and playing with her rubber duckies. I knew these were products I could feel safe using because my mom used them with me, and my daughter will likely use them with her babies!
Sometimes it’s hard to remember that there are people behind big companies. They are Moms, Dads, Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents and just like us they want the best for their families. When Johnson’s Baby heard the concerns of their customers about formaldehyde-releasing preservatives and traces of 1,4 dioxane in their baby products, they made the promise and commitment to remove them.
Johnson’s Baby even removed parabens (ahead of their 2015 commitment schedule) from most of their new and improved baby products.
The JOHNSON’S® Baby Family is excited to introduce you to their seven newly reformulated products:
JOHNSON’S® Baby HEAD-TO-TOE® Wash
JOHNSON’S® Baby Lotion
JOHNSON’S® Baby Shampoo
JOHNSON’S® Baby Shampoo & Conditioner for Thick and Curly Hair
JOHNSON’S® Baby Shampoo & Conditioner for Thin and Straight Hair
JOHNSON’S® Baby Shampoo with Calming Lavender
In Japanese legend, folding 1,000 origami cranes will result in a wish granted and a promise fulfilled. #JOHNSONSBaby, inspired by this legend, asked employees and their families to help build 1,000 origami storks to symbolize the delivery of their #PromiseToBaby to always listen to Moms. Watch the video “Our Promise” below to see the storks being folded and hung.
I love that they are constantly improving to be the best they can be for baby.
I was really happy to hear they made the changes. I think it shows a real commitment to parents.
It is great to hear they are making changes. I think it pays to speak up as a consumer.
It’s always important to us to keep our promises as well. I love that Johnson’s Baby is making this bold move.
I have always loved Johnson’s baby products. I used them with my babies when they were boys 🙂
I love this news. They are making it so much easier for new parents to have a trusted brand to buy and not be overwhelmed from all of the information out there about what to avoid and what not to buy.
I am so beyond excited that Johnson’s now is chemical free fir the most part! I wish they started when my kids were younger, but your never too old for J&J lotions! Love them.
I love Johnson’s. They have always been my go to for babies.
I think it’s great that Johnson’s changes their formula to eliminate parabens. They are toxic to the body, and the most definitely shouldn’t be used on the tiny ones.
I love that video and the idea behind the cranes, I’m so glad they are doing this! Protecting our children is the most important thing.
I am happy to hear about the new products and new formula! It makes me happy when a big company like this realizes it’s impact on the family and works to make us happier with products we can feel safe using.
I completely agree! When the big company’s are onboard, it’s much easier for other companies to follow suit.
It is awesome that they have changed their product. I grew up with J&J and used it with my daughter.
Kids test us all the time, and I have to always remind myself that it is worth it, they are young and they are learning. Great blog, and a great reminder!
It is so great that Johnson’s listened to what parents and consumers wanted. Good for them for stepping up and doing the best for kids.
I have always loved Johnson and Johnson’s for my baby products. I’m glad they have listened to their customers and removed harmful chemicals and parabens!
I’m a big fan of the Johnson & Johnson brand! We’ve used it since my girls were babies!
What a fun way to keep a promise! Those storks are so cute
I like the changes they made to their ingredients. It’s nice to know they are listening to their customers’ concerns.
This is a huge accomplishment for their company and I admire them for it!! Even with grown ups on the house, we still love Johnson & Johnson products! Esp the lotions and original scent shampoo.
This is awesome news! I was one of those concerned parents, so I am very happy to hear that they have listened and removed the chemicals from their products. I only want the best for my 14 month old daughter, and I am very happy that I can trust the Johnson’s brand.
I’m so glad they reformulated! I can’t wait to stock up on the good stuff for our pending arrival!
I did not realize they offered so may products. Thank you for sharing!
Glad they finally took our all that really bad stuff. It’s something I wish more companies would do.
I love Johnson’s baby products. I used them all the time when my son was a baby. I’m really happy that they’ve done away with parabens. That stuff is bad news.
I am so happy to hear this… Both my girls have very sensitive skin and had a reaction to the old formula… I was so upset because Johnson’s has such a good name… I am glad that they have changed their formula. Maybe we can go back to it now.
I have used the Johnson & Johnson products with all my kids. I am happy to hear about the changes they are making to make their products even better.
I love Johnson’s baby products. My daughter is four, so we’re still in the “no tears” shampoo age bracket. I’m glad to hear they’re reformulated their products to make them safer.
i am thrilled that they reformulated these products, I will definitely be purchasing them again!
I love Johnson & Johnson products so much that I use them everyday to wash my little munchkin.
I have used Johnson product with all my children. I love the smell of their baby shampoo.
Johnson’s was the only bath/hair products I used on my son when he was a baby/toddler. I even like using the shampoo on my own hair. 🙂
What a beautiful video. 🙂 I love all their calming scents!
I love Johnson’s and think it is great that they changed the formula to make it even better and safer. Sounds like a fabulous company.
I still use Johnson’s Baby Shampoo for myself and my 7-year son. Never too old! =)
Quite happy to see these changes. Thank you, Johnson and Johnson!
I used Johnsons on both of my babies when they were young. I trusted them then and still do. It’s great they’re making changes based on consumer feedback.
