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.

The Mustela Soothing Chest Rub is a non-medicated, moisturising balm you massage onto your baby's chest, back and throat to help them feel comforted and relaxed at bedtime. Presented in a 40ml pot, it's designed for those unsettled evenings — when a change in weather or a bit of discomfort makes it harder for your little one to settle — giving you a calm, hands-on ritual to help wind down the day.

Rather than a decongestant, this is a skin-care balm built around gentle massage. It's enriched with 97% naturally derived ingredients, including Avocado Perseose®, Mustela's patented ingredient designed to help strengthen baby's skin barrier and support hydration. A melting texture makes it easy to work in, absorbing quickly without leaving a sticky or greasy residue, while a refreshing pine scent adds to the sense of calm.

Nourishing, sensitive-skin care

Alongside Avocado Perseose®, the formula draws on Shea Butter and Honey Extract to nourish and soften, leaving skin feeling supple and smooth. It's been clinically tested under dermatological and paediatric control, and in the brand's own testing, 82% of parents agreed the balm applied through massage made their babies more comfortable, with 91% expressing overall satisfaction with the product.

Key Ingredients

Avocado Perseose® What it does: A patented natural-origin ingredient that helps strengthen the skin barrier.
Why it works: A stronger barrier supports optimal hydration and protection for delicate baby skin.
Shea Butter What it does: Nourishes and softens the skin.
Why it works: Rich in lipids, it helps leave skin feeling supple and smooth.
Honey Extract What it does: Adds to the balm's nourishing, softening feel.
Why it works: Works alongside Shea Butter to keep skin comfortable during the massage.

How to Use

  1. Apply a small amount to your baby's chest, back and throat.
  2. Gently massage in a circular motion.
  3. Use up to twice a day, before bedtime, or as often as needed for soothing relief.

Suitable from birth onwards. This product is not a medication.

Best For

The Mustela Soothing Chest Rub is a great option for parents who:

  • Want a calming, non-medicated massage ritual to help baby settle at bedtime
  • Are looking for a moisturising balm formulated for sensitive skin
  • Prefer a fast-absorbing, non-sticky texture that's easy to work in
  • Like the idea of a mostly natural-origin formula with Avocado Perseose®, Shea Butter and Honey Extract

It may not be the right fit if you're looking for a medicated decongestant to relieve congestion or ease breathing — this is a comfort-focused skin-care balm rather than a medicine.

Disclaimer

This product is not a medication and is not a substitute for medical care. If your baby has breathing difficulty, a persistent or worsening cough or cold, or any symptom that concerns you, please seek advice from your pharmacist, clinic or doctor. Do a patch test first and discontinue use if any irritation occurs.

Pandylane Pro Tip: Turning the application into a slow, unhurried massage — a few minutes of gentle circular strokes — is often where the real value sits, helping signal to baby that it's time to wind down for sleep.
