Good!
I’ve been using Desitin cream for my baby, and I’m really impressed. It works quickly to soothe any skin irritation and creates a long-lasting protective barrier — the durability of the effect is amazing. I also appreciate the ingredients, which are gentle and safe for sensitive skin. Highly recommend for everyday use! It easily helps to eliminate redness, has a pleasant texture, is easy to apply to the skin. Convenient and roomy packaging lasts a long time. I take it with me everywhere.

Fast Relief & Gentle on Baby's Skin
This cream has become a must-have in our routine. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, and the consistency spreads evenly without being too thick. I love the compact 2 oz packaging because it’s perfect for the diaper bag and stores well without leaking or drying out. For maintenance, it stays in great condition even with daily use. My baby doesn’t get diaper rash often, but whenever she does and I put this on right away, the relief is almost instant. It’s gentle, effective, and very reliable.

Eases redness
Desitin works perfectly for when my baby has any raw spots from wiping or her diaper. Having a breastfed baby with breastfed poops can cause quick irritation. This always helps ease any redness. It is gentle, effective, and easy to apply. A little bit goes a long ways!

Our daily diaper cream - keeps rash away and a lit
We use this DAILY as the name of the product reads! It is our go to diaper cream for our twins and we must have gone through 50 tubs by now. The tub last a very long time as you don’t need a ton - it spreads so easily and really keeps rashes away! Easy to wipe off or wash off in the tub. My parents used Desitin with me and now I’m using it for my babies! It’s a classic for a reason.

Amazing product!!!
My baby had a horrible rash. I used the Desitin maximum strength and worked almost immediately. Now I’m using the Desitin daily defense on my baby. He hasn’t had any rash ever since I’m using this paste after every diaper change.

Not a fan
I didn’t care for Desitin. It never healed the diaper rash on my daughter. It also seemed to burn when I applied it because she would scream and scream.

A reliable cream that soothes diaper rash quickly
Desitin Daily Defense Cream works amazingly well to prevent and treat diaper rash. The texture is thick yet spreads easily and creates a protective barrier that lasts for hours. It starts soothing redness almost immediately, and within a day or two the irritation is gone. The ingredients feel safe and gentle on delicate skin, and I appreciate that it’s fragrance-free. The packaging is convenient and the tube makes it easy to dispense without mess. For the price, it’s excellent value because a little goes a long way.

Great for the bum!
Love! As soon as my baby starts getting a little red, I apply a thin layer and by next change it’s cleared up. It’s not overly thick which I also love!
