I quickly washed it with soap & water.. on the product its written that its milder than any other soap but than how this happened. My baby is too precious for me, won't leave this company if anything worst will happen with him..

A peer-reviewed paper in the Journal of the Dermatology Nurses’ Association raises fresh concerns that a chemical preservative used in America’s leading baby shampoo may be causing increased rates of allergic contact dermatitis, an inflammation of the skin that varies from mild irritation to rashes and open sores.
The paper states that quaternium 15, a chemical preservative that kills bacteria by releasing formaldehyde, “is the most sensitizing formaldehyde-releasing preservative and has been repeatedly shown to be a strong allergen that can cause contact dermatitis.” Quaternium 15 -- found in many baby products including Johnson’s Baby Shampoo, Mr. Bubble Bath and Huggies Baby Wash -- is considered by the North American Contact Dermatitis Group to be among the most clinically significant contact allergens in children.
Basically kids can get an allergic reaction to a lot of things. An allergy is an immune reaction to a substance in the environment called an allergen.When a child with allergies comes into contact with an allergen – either by touching it, breathing it, eating it, or having it injected – his body mistakenly views it as a dangerous invader and releases histamines and other chemicals to fight it off.
You just need to watch out for what all he gets allergic reactions to and just be careful not to use it on him in the future.
