Can be used for more than just diaper rash...
Size: Tub 8 Ounce
We were turned on to using diaper rash ointment for healing cracked heels and rough hands. Our German exchange daughter brought a cream from Germany that was fantastic and we have spent the last fifteen years trying to find something US based that could compare. As grandparents, we also wanted to make sure when we are on deck for diaper duty we use something approved by very picky natural based parents.
I figured I would try it out on myself first and frankly my hands need it desperately. The ingredients are natural based, well researched, and used in the top rated diaper rash creams. It is a New York company founded by a woman trying to come up with a burn cream for her daughter years ago. They have a poison oak bar they developed along with other healing creams. After researching it, as I encourage everyone to do on any skin or health product, I felt comfortable enough to give it a go.
It comes well sealed in a small jar and is a firm creamy ointment. It smells nice - a little sweet and flowery, but not overwhelming - just a natural scent really. It only takes a scooch and covers well. I was expecting a thick what paste as in diaper creams from back in my day but this is transparent when you put it on. It absorbs nicely but leaves a water shedding quality.
My normally rough hands are soft this morning and what I like best is the water shedding properties. I ran my hands under the water just to put it to the test and it did great. I have very sensitive skin and have had no issues. Really a nice cream I feel totally comfortable using myself and on those cute lil baby buns. The company put a lot of care into developing their products and I appreciate it.
Oh, one question I would be asking is "is it oily" - It is not. The feeling you get from it is best described as "soft".
The con - the writing on the jar is so small (old people can't see) so I relied on being able to blow up the pictures on here. What would be great is if they would add the back of the jar in the pictures too.
