This gentle, effective cream works wonders on nappy rash and applies smoothly without needing to rub delicate skin raw, though a small number of parents find it doesn't work for severe rashes. Perfect for everyday prevention and mild irritation, but reach for something stronger like Metanium if you're dealing with a stubborn, angry rash.
⚠️This is a pack of 3 tubes, so make sure you actually need that much before buying—one tube typically lasts ages.
