Baby has dry skinšŸ˜«

Kayley ā€¢ 24 years old, I have a little boy whoā€™s 4 and Iā€™m TTC my second baby!! šŸ‘¶šŸ»
My son is 10 days old and he has very dry skin, it ain't irratated or red just very dry, the health visitor was out today to see him and said not to use products on him till 6 weeks. I want to put lotion on his dry skin, as it looks so bad. Any advice ladies, should i follow health visitors rules or should i put some baby lotion on him?Ā
