I'd massage it into her skin (like you would on yourself.)
There is no right or wrong way to apply it, but many mums like to do a bit of 'baby massage' whilst applying it which most little ones love and find really relaxing.

You could apply a little to her bum cheeks if you wanted but generally should avoid creams and lotions in the nappy area especially on and around their genitals unless it's to help with a rash (e45, sudocrem etc)

I rub it in my hands first, and then massage onto her, i dont put it on her bum. I think my LO likes having her feet massaged with it, she always seems to zone out when i do this!!!
