Cradle cap or dry skin. Help!

My baby has a very flakey head. I'm not sure if this is a cradle cap or dry skin. He is 1.5 months old and I've been told before not to use any skin products, flakey skin is normal at the beginning. But it's now all over the top of his head and has on his eyebrows. Did anyone have something similar? What did you do?

Cradle cap! I used mustela cradle cap foam shampoo and I’m not kidding it cleared up shortly after a couple washes! Also used it with my second kid!

Vaseline on the baby’s head at night after bath

Thank you ladies💙

I used aquaphor and it improved after just one use.

You can also remove it with a comb

If yur breast feeding use breast milk. Yu can add it to his bath

My son had it on his eyebrow, it definitely looks like cradle cap. If you have a cradle cap scruby brush (I had one) you can use it to gently scrub it off the eyebrows and apply some type of moisturizer, I've been using baby lotion on my son since he was born pretty much.
