I tried my breastfed baby on this for a night top up and she had a eczema type break out rash all over her body and her poos changed and has white specks through them. Really gassy and Just an unhappy baby.

Good affordable formula!
My 2 week old son has been having this since birth.
He is extremely content and sleeps around 4 hours between each feed. Works well with his tummy, no runny poos and no constipation.
Great price also, highly recommend

Worst formula!
Used this formula with my other 3x children and no issues however my newborn from birth-2wks was very unsettled, waking up every 1-2hrs. She would wake up screaming as she was extremely constipated! I would burp her a few times throughout her feeds yet she would still be unsettled and have wind! Trip to the chemist for wind & constipation drops which helped that night however she was still constipated! I have changed to a different formula (made in NZ) baby is now 3wks and is completely settled, no constipation, sleeps 4-6hrs during the night! ...Read more
Its a shame this product use to be great however since its been made in Mexico not NZ its a terrible product! The pain my baby went through with this formula was heartbreaking now seeing how content she is with a different formula, I hope to save other parents from my terrible experience!

Great, affordable formula
We started our newborn on this formula as a top up measure. It did a great job. For no particular reason we then changed to NAN Supreme 1 just to try it. We didn't join the dots initially but our bub started getting eczma and green, smelly poos. These symptoms have started going away since we reverted back to the S26. So this product works best for our baby.

Don't buy the one made in Mexico
Bub loved it since birth. It was made in NewZealand. But the Mexico made gave him terrible constipation. Stores don't sell NZ made anymore. We switched to a different brand.

Great product!
Baby seems to enjoy the product, we mix a thickener in which is fine. No side effects related to the formula on its own, really really easy to mix together.

Perfect for my babies
My 3 month old was exclusively breastfed until 10 weeks old, we tried Karicare but made my bub constipated. I switched back to S26 since my first baby loves the formula plus its gentle on her tummy. My 3 month old is happy with s26 and he doesnt get constipated at all.

It’s ok
I’ve given this milk to my newborn son because the price is affordable and I could easily buy it to wollies but he keeps on vomitting after very feed. Pop was ok but it just doesn’t stay well on his tummy. I’ve changed formula since then.

Mexican rubbish
Had been giving the s26 newborn which was made in NZ to our son and it was great no issues what so ever slept through all night. From the night we first gave him the new product made in mexico he squirmed with stomach pains all night and woke every hour, it seems like the new product hardly mixes in water. Very dissapointing. Also we found some of the original mix made in NZ and swapped back and he slept 7 hours straight

MEXICAN rubbish
Since moving production From New Zealand to Mexico in March 2022, this product is shocking. Doesn't dissolve in the water and causes constipation to our 5 month old. Who know's what they've done with the production process and ingredients.
One star is generous. You couldn't pay me to use this product.
Such a shame as the previous product made in New Zealand is 5 star.
I've contacted the company direct but others need to know before they buy.

New formula clumps. Not a fan.
We have used this formula for 3 months. We used to really like this brand, however since moving production to Mexico and changing the formula, it is not mixing well and clumps form at the bottom and sides of the bottle. Like Nix, we have bought up all the NZ production tins we could find. I've spoken to the Careline about this - and given it a second try, but we aren't satisfied with the quality of this product any more. Please bring back the old formula!

Best formula for newborns
We tried different formula milks before as this is my forth kid. S26 is a complete milk for kids. One of the best milk recommended by nutritions. It gives them energy to grow. Kids like the taste too

It used to be great, new formula is terrible
This formula was the only thing that suited my reflux baby, however they’ve just started making it in Mexico and the formula isn’t the same. It’s clumpy, doesn’t dissolve as well and sediment falls to the bottom of each bottle. I’m so disappointed. I’ve done the rounds and bought up all of the tins I could find manufactured in NZ but after they’re gone I’ll have to switch brands.

Never had any issues
Never had any issues with this formula, easy to make, not clumpy.
No side effects.
Baby seems to be enjoying formula and drinking fine with the newborn one. Will change her at 6 months to the s26 6-12months.

S26 Original has been amazing.
We tried s26 gold first, unfortunately this did not agree with my little ones stomach changed over to karicare from recommendations but Bub didn’t like the taste. S26 Original has been amazing. My daughter is finally finishing all her bottles and is back on track. Highly recommend s26 original.

Im trying to get my 7month old onto a bottle. Shes only been breast feed till now. Shes had a couple of bottles but now she just screams her head off and refuses it..im thinking she doesnt like the taste. Has anyone else had this problem? Any feed nack would be helpful
1 answer
Hi.. may be this is helpful for you. Why don't you try s26 gold formula that taste like breastmilk. I try to fed my bub gold but she didn't like it from the start she had a normal formula that's why. Give a try to gold one ... hopefully this will help you.
