Tube hard to squeeze but good protection
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ingredients are good and strong zinc oxide concentration is a plus. For severe rashes, we still need antifungal or pediatric guidance but it does provide very effective barrier protection.

Goodbye diaper rash☁️
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging is nice, I personally like the smaller tube so it makes it easy to carry with in a diaper bag! It has a good texture and does its job at getting rid of a red bottom/ diaper rash. The maximum strength works fast to give your baby comfort to keep moving. I would recommend this product to other moms!

Good product, very helpful and good price
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this for my baby whenever his diaper rash get red and irritated and its help calm his skin so fast. The texture is thick enough to protect overnight without feeling too greasy. The packaging is really convenient and easy to toss into the bag without taking much space. Definitely keep it in his diaper bag from now on.

Strong, odorless, but can spread better
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I typically use diaper rash spray during the day for quicker changes and spreadable cream right before baby's bed time since he's been sleeping longer stretches. What I loved: cream is odorless, and worked well. Baby's skin looked great in the morning. What could be better: the cream is very very thick. This made it so it didn't spread as well and fast. Not a problem if baby is content but sometimes he wants the diaper change to be done asap 😅.

Small size compared to others
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the thick paste consistency of this cream to stay on my baby’s bottom. It has a stronger scent than most diaper creams. It is hard to dispense due to how thick the cream is.

Amazing diaper rash ointment
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing diaper rash ointment, the packaging is perfect for having in your changing table or to take it with you in your diaper bag. Although it has a big zinc oxide content (40%) it doesnt let my baby skin feeling dry, the Peruvian balsam really gets the job done. I find this max strength ointment perfect for bedtime, because its when the wet diapers may be prolonged, or when baby skin is getting red, just to prevent, but it also treats diaper rash.

Works great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really happy with this diaper rash ointment! A little goes a long way, and the tube makes it easy to dispense without making a mess. The texture is thick but still smooth enough to spread easily, and it doesn’t leave behind a heavy residue. The consistency stays the same every time and it works well to keep my baby’s skin protected.

The only ointment that worked
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ointment is incredible. It is the only ointment out there that treated my son‘s diaper rash. It feels like the other ointments we have used but cleared the rash in only two days.

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using Dr. Talbot’s Maximum Strength Diaper Rash Ointment for a while, and it has become a staple in our diaper routine. The 40% zinc oxide formula provides a strong barrier that really helps protect my baby’s skin from wetness and friction, and it works quickly to soothe redness and irritation. I appreciate that it is free from dyes, parabens, preservatives, and talc, which makes it gentle enough for sensitive skin. The ointment spreads easily and isn’t overly greasy, so applying it during diaper changes is simple and convenient. It’s thick enough to stay in place and provide lasting protection, yet not so heavy that it feels uncomfortable. I also like that the small tube is easy to carry in the diaper bag, making it convenient for use at home or on the go. Overall, this ointment is highly effective for both treating existing diaper rash and preventing new irritation, and it gives me confidence that my baby’s skin is well protected. I would definitely recommend it to any parent looking for a reliable, gentle, and effective diaper rash solution.

Don’t like that it has a scent but a good paste.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well the texture is a little bit different than I’m used to in terms of butt paste but it seem to do pretty fine, nothing better than the other competitors on the market, I don’t like that it has a scent. The scent is not bad but I don’t like a scent in something that goes in a sensitive area. Only gripe with the product.

3-5 it's alright
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to apply and results vary. 3-5 overall is my score for this product. Butt was red due to consistency of the product. If offered to try again I'd try it again, but wouldn't buy it before other options.

Works Fast and Keeps Our Baby Comfortable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I used Dr. Talbot’s Max Strength Diaper Rash Ointment on our 7-month-old, and it worked surprisingly fast. The 40% zinc oxide creates a strong protective barrier, and we noticed the redness calming down within a couple of diaper changes. It’s thick, gentle, and free of dyes and parabens, which we appreciate for sensitive skin. Overall, it’s become our go-to ointment for quick, effective rash relief.
