If this item is in stock, it’s processed within 2 hours, often much quicker.

If this item needs to come in from our supplier, it usually takes 3-5 days for us to receive it. As soon as it arrives, we’ll pack your order and prep it for delivery.

More About Timelines

Timelines are estimates, based on our averages and couriers’ commitments. We always aim to get your order to you quicker than this — but they’re not a guarantee. Wherever your order is in the journey, we’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

Returns Made Easy

Unfortunately, we can’t accept returns on this product once it’s been opened. This is usually because:

  • It’s a hygiene or sanitary product
  • It’s single-use
  • It’s a final sale or clearance item

If there’s a defect or fault, though, it’s always covered as a warranty claim.

If the item is still unopened, you can return it within 30 days of receiving it. Just request a return from your account or through our chat, and we’ll handle the rest.

Returns are always free within 7 days. After that, if you’re returning it because you’ve changed your mind, you may need to cover the return cost. You can send it back yourself, or we can arrange a courier and give you an upfront quote — direct from the courier. If your return is for any other reason, it’s free.

Warranty

Warranty Period: 6 Months Limited Warranty

This product’s warranty is provided by the manufacturer/distributor. As an authorised retailer, any purchase from us qualifies for the full manufacturer’s warranty — no exceptions.

Warranty claims are handled directly by the manufacturer or distributor, so we’ll refer you to the right team to get your claim underway. That said, we don’t just hand you off and disappear — we stay involved and follow up from our side to help make sure your claim is resolved promptly.

For most claims, all you’ll need is proof of purchase.

Mustela Baby Oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing baby massage oil made with 99% naturally derived plant oils, formulated for delicate skin from birth. It hydrates and soothes as it blends effortlessly into the skin, making it a good fit whether you're looking for a daily moisturiser or an oil to build a calming massage routine around.

Non-greasy and lightly scented with Mustela's signature fragrance, it's designed to be warmed between your hands and massaged in gently, turning skincare into a moment of bonding. It absorbs without leaving a slippery residue, so it doubles as a nourishing after-bath oil and a glide for hands-on massage. With a short, minimal ingredient list, it suits dry, sensitive or irritation-prone skin, and is specially formulated to minimise the risk of allergic reactions.

How to Use

  1. Rub the baby oil between your hands to warm it to body temperature.
  2. Massage it gently into your baby's clean skin, avoiding contact with the eyes.

Use it after a bath or before bedtime to help seal in moisture. Beyond a full massage, it's a versatile oil you can reach for in a few different ways:

After-bath massage

Warm the oil between your hands and gently massage into your baby's skin once they're out of the tub, sealing in moisture while skin is still soft.

Preventing chafing

Before putting on a nappy, apply a light layer to help keep skin from chafing.

Cuticle care

Massage a little oil into cuticles to keep them hydrated and help prevent cracking.

Best For

The Mustela Baby Oil is a great option for parents who:

  • Want a lightweight, non-greasy oil for daily moisturising or a bonding massage routine
  • Are caring for newborn skin and want a short, minimal ingredient list
  • Prefer a formula made with 99% ingredients of natural origin (per the ISO 16128 standard) and that is vegan
  • Have a little one with dry, sensitive or irritation-prone skin

It may not be the best fit if you:

  • Prefer a completely fragrance-free product, as this oil carries Mustela's signature scent

Disclaimer

Safe from birth on. As with any skincare product, it's best to do a patch test first: apply a tiny amount to a small area of your baby's skin, wait 24 hours, and check for any redness or irritation before wider use. Avoid contact with the eyes. If your baby's skin is broken, infected or persistently inflamed, speak to a healthcare professional before use.

Pandylane Pro Tip: For added daily hydration, pair the Baby Oil with Mustela's Hydra Bébé body lotion as part of your after-bath routine.
