Featured Parents' Reviews

  • Great for diaper rashes, they clear up quickly. Recommended by pediatrician. Jul 30, 2023

  • I usually only have to apply this once, and it heals my babies diaper rash within a couple hours. However, she's only had very mild rashes, so I don't know how it would work on a more severe rash May 30, 2023

    • Kay L.

    • Ann Arbor, Michigan

    Not a fan of this - has loads of fragrance and was irritating for my little one's sensitive skin. Jun 02, 2022

  • Yes, I hate the chemical in this as I prefer all natural skincare. But when the rash is bad, THIS is the only thing that will cure it. So its worth the chemical expose in my opinion. May 10, 2022

  • It works great for diaper rash but it’s such a hassle to get off my finger and heaven forbid it touches anything else because it doesn’t come out. Jul 21, 2021

  • I love how easy this is to spread, and how it does not leave the greasy residue feeling on your hands after applying it on baby. Feb 08, 2021

  • Good diaper rash ointment! Stays on baby's bum and provides relief. Oct 19, 2020

  • This was a lifesaver when our baby got terrible diaper rash around the time she started teething! Aug 17, 2020

  • A typical booty cream that works well enough and does it’s job. I feel compared to other booty creams that this one tends to be on the greasier side. Greasy is not my favorite. May 31, 2020

  • This cream has worked great for us! Apr 21, 2020

    • Tam L.

    • San Diego, California

    Actually didn't work for us for rashes and was too thick. Feb 19, 2020

  • Love the maximum strength. Works amazing on diaper rashs! Must have for babies/toddlers! Jan 29, 2020

    The gold standard for diaper rash - use the purple (maximum strength) instead of the blue since it works better Jan 26, 2020

  • Great product for baby buns. Does the trick in a pinch Jan 26, 2020

  • I like to use this on older kids for chaffing, or rashes. I feel like it’s a bit strong for newborn and sensitive bums. Great for older kids. Jan 25, 2020

  • The ONLY diaper cream that took care of our baby’s first diaper rash. recommended by our pediatrician, would recommend to anyone! Jan 02, 2020

  • Great for part of the diaper care options when little bums are raw and sore Jun 30, 2019

    I won’t use anything else to prevent or protect against diaper rash. It gets the job done, enough said. Apr 03, 2019

  • We keep a tube of this everywhere; car, daycare, diaper bag, nursery, etc. Clears up baby's rash quick and provides her immediate relief on bad rashes. Jan 23, 2019

  • We use this rather than our normal Aquaphor for more persistent redness, and it does the trick. Oct 19, 2018

  • When nothing else would work to get rid of my baby's awful diaper rash, Desitin Maximum Strength came to my rescue! Jul 31, 2018

    • Allie R.

    • Piedmont, South Carolina

    My son had ear infections ALOT and the medicine from the doc was always giving him diarrhea. This saved us many times and kept my little one from many a rash. Apr 24, 2018

    • Adina C.

    • Conway, South Carolina

    The only product that works for my 8 week old. Nov 19, 2017

  • Works wonders with a couple applications, bum rash is gone and skin is healed and protected. Advise using a applicator as it is thick and gets between the finger nails Nov 16, 2017

  • This always was able to heal my son's diaper rash over night. Definitely would recommend. Nov 12, 2017

    • Ashley K.

  • this product only made the rash worse, whether my child was allergic or it just wasn't right for us. Oct 23, 2017
