“The best cream!”

When our son was 4 months old he got severe gastro, and had the worst nappy rash. We tried several different creams/remedies and nothing worked. Untill we tried Desitin. It cleared it up very quickly and soothed him almost instantly.

It also lasts all night, creating a barrier as well as healing and soothing the rash.

Now I reach for it straight away if he's starting to get a rash.

“The best nappy cream EVER!!!”

My son was on long term antibiotics and would get terrible nappy rash because of this, as his poo was burning his bottom. I spent lots of $$$ on different creams to try and clear it up. A friend finally put me onto Desitin cream and we haven't looked back. After only one application, the rash was 80% better, and was gone within 2 days. I reccommend this cream to all of my friends with kids!

My son suffered from constant diarrhoea, consequently he had terrible nappy rash. Regularly needing cortisone and antibiotics. It was just terrible. Needless to say, I tried EVERYTHING, every cream/ointment, expensive to cheap.

Desitin was the ONLY one that worked, and worked cosistently. I tell all my friends. It would be the only one I used if I had another baby.

It is the best one on the market. Yes it is hard to get off clothes sometimes, but well worth having to put up with that, to not have a screaming baby from the pain of nappy changes.

This cream is fantastic. It has the highest zinc componant and is the most protective cheap nappy cream you can buy. DS hardly ever gets rashes appart from when he eats mandarins. Destin has it fixed within days.

Our little munchkin has had a run of bad red raw nappy rash.  We were recommended this cream at the pharmacy and it's been a god send.  Virtually instant relief and providing an excellent barrier.  We were using paw paw ointment and Amolin but it wasn't providing the needed relief for the nappy rash.  

The downside is that it can go everywhere but i make sure there's a wipe handy so I can clean up any bits that have escaped the nappy! Also if it gets on your clothes best to put a bit of stain remover on it straight away so it comes out in the wash first go.

i love this cream!! i have used every nappy rash cream under the sun and was given desitin as a sample by the chemist. it cleared up nappy rash in no time,even fixes hubby's chafing and toddler redness from not cleaning properly down there!!

my onlydownfall-if you dont be careful the white stuff sticks on your clothes,fingers,linen..but small price to pay for a wonderful product.

“Rolls-Royce of creams”

This is a fabulous product. COmpared to other creams it has a very high zinc componenet which is what forms the barrier to keep baby bottom rash-free. my son is 17months and even with horrible teething poos, the redness would clear up overnight. he has only had bad nappy-rash once, caused by gastro-diarrhoea, which required cortisone and anti-fungal cream to clear up. It is thick, and can cause staining on clothes, but the fact its so thick is why it works so well.

I was using curash but bub was still getting nappy rash. I tried natural creams like medihoney with no luck. then I read about desitin and nappy rash is history. no problems with stains either.

“tough on nappy rash”

my bub suffered from fungal nappy rash from the get go. after resorting to cortisone to clear it up, i have found the only thing to keep it at bay has been desitin. however, i think it is responsible for leaving lots of stains on clothes, so that is definitely a downer. i still use it though, as things like paw paw ointment an other natural products just don't keep my bub rash-free.
