Brief Answer:
Either can be used. Use Dermadew Aloe

Hi,

Dermadew aloe would be more preferable for both your daughters since it has a better moisturizing effect. There is no problem if you use either Dermadew baby soap or Dermadew lite. Feel free to use any of them.

Brief Answer:
Sunscreen is not needed. Moisturizing lotion is needed.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Any standard baby shampoo would do. No specifications in particular.

No need of sunscreen or Neutragena (baby sunscreen therefore does not apply). But moisturizing lotion like aloe vera lotion (or Dermadew aloe) are likely to be needed.

Hope I have answered your query.
