Your questions, answered

Nappy rash keeps winning at 3am - what makes this jar the parents' favourite?

It's 40% zinc oxide - the highest level available - in a rich, cushiony cream that relieves nappy rash discomfort on contact and forms a barrier clinically shown to protect for up to 12 hours. Per the US label it treats and helps prevent nappy rash; applied thickly at bedtime, it works the night shift so everyone sleeps.

How much should I slather on?

A generous layer - change wet and soiled nappies promptly, cleanse and let the skin dry, then apply liberally as often as needed, especially before bedtime when nappy exposure is longest. The visible white layer is the point: that's the barrier doing its job. Follow the label directions closely, and ask a pharmacist if you're unsure whether it suits you.

Is the formula okay for sensitive baby skin?

It's hypoallergenic, free from parabens, phthalates and dyes, and dermatologist- and paediatrician-tested - built to be gentle enough for everyday use even at maximum strength.

Why the giant 16oz jar over the tube?

Value and volume: nappy rash care means frequent, generous applications, and the big jar keeps changing tables, nurseries and daycare bags stocked without weekly rebuying. Same maximum-strength formula as the smaller paste - just a supply that matches real usage.
