Desitin is the best, no doubt!
I love Desitin diaper paste! The texture is very thick but smooth. It’s also super spreadable which makes a little go a long way! It also doesn’t have a harsh chemical smell like some of the other diaper creams i’ve tried. The combination of Desitin with Huggies is my go too! I recommend this paste to first time mommy’s & mommy’s with littles!

Love this stuff and swear by it!
Since My Sons has been born, he has dealt with extreme diaper rashes. This cream has helped to prevent his diaper rashes from getting extreme or out of control. It’s a decently thick pace that goes on and melts right into the skin. Doesn’t irritate My Sons skin either and he has sensitive skin as it is. The smell is honestly not all that bad compared to other creams !

Desitin the maximum!
As a mother, I'm a fan of this paste because it helped me quickly cure my baby's diaper rash. It doesn't have a strong odor, and its packaging is convenient to take anywhere. Highly recommended for the relief and care of diaper rash, it's a great everyday ally for all mothers. It has pediatrician-approved ingredients and is hypoallergenic.

Floral fragrance-not unscented! Why??
This has added fragrance so is not unscented which shocked me because it’s going on a baby’s sore bottom. They should really tell you that on the packaging! I never would’ve purchased this had I known.

Desitin is a parenting necessity
Both of my children have had positive experiences with Desitin diaper cream. It is a thick paste that really helps resolve diaper rash. The squirt tube makes it easy to open when changing the diaper of an active little one.

The best way to prevent irritation caused by diape
I highly recommend it. It's super easy to apply, it has a creamy texture and you can apply it to any irritation or any peeling. I highly recommend putting it on your baby's crotch when you're going to put on the pampers. Its price is super affordable. Contains vitamin A and D and has 40% synoxide

Very effective for diaper rash
This is our favorite product to use for our babies when they have diaper rashes. It is very effective in treatment for baby. The cream has a good texture, is easy to apply, and lasts a long time. I noticed redness starting to fade after just one use, and within a day the skin looked so much better. It doesn’t have an overpowering smell and wipes off fairly easily during diaper changes. Highly recommend!

The ONLY cream that worked
This was the ONLY cream that worked on my daughters diaper rash. We tried 10+ creams including ones prescribed by doctors, and none worked except for Desitin.

Love it
We always use the extra strength ans it truly is the best. We haven't had any issues with rashes and we believe that it's because of the cream. I definitely love that it's easy to use and easy to travel with.

It works after 2 uses! (Personal experience)
Works very well and a little goes a long way! I have not had to buy another one and my baby is already one! Smooth to apply and fragrance free. A big one should be fine for at come and for your diaper bag, maybe a smaller one for more practicality.

Very effective
I love this diaper cream. It goes on smooth and gives a nice thick layer of protection. It clears up my son's diaper rash with one application. I use this product almost everyday to keep my son feeling and smelling fresh.

Must have!
This is a diaper changing must have. When my baby is starting to get a rash we have tried other treatments and this is the only thing that works! It doesn’t have a smell to me and the easy open lid helps!
