Effective and helps a lot with keeping your baby f
If you have little babies in daycare this will be one of your best friends. Let’s be honest we always assume that our little ones are going to be changed on time every time, but the teachers have a lot of small ones at a time and sometimes they aren’t checked right away. It spreads easily but can be a little messy so I advise using the diaper, a little bottom spatula, or a Q-tip. The tube doesn’t burst open even after my kids are rough on the diaper bag. I’ve had some brands that will open at the sides. My little ones have never had a reaction to it before so that’s a major plus. All of my babies have super sensitive skin. I highly recommend we keep some at home and daycare.

Soothe and protect
This has gotten me through 3 kids. One had tummy troubles so his poor bum was always suffering. It soothes irritation so quickly and protects the skin afterwards.

Relieving it in just one day
I love it, it helps my son when something is irritating his skin, relieving it in just one day. It's very thick and lasts a long time; one tube lasts me approximately 6 months.

Effective
I really liked using the Desitin Maximum Strength cream because it feels very gentle on the skin but still provides strong protection. The texture is thick and smooth, which makes it easy to apply without needing a large amount. I use it consistently with every diaper change, especially at night, and it lasts for hours without fading away. I like that it stays in place and doesn’t leave a messy or oily residue. It definitely helps soothe redness quickly and works great as a preventive step too.

Great diaper cream
We used this for my kiddos when they were babies and toddlers for diaper rash. Always worked great and wasn’t greasy. It was a little hard to get off of clothing if accidentally rubbed off.

The best
Clears up my son's rash after only two or three uses. Only use Destin and nothing else when my kids have rashes. Scent isn't strong at all which I love.

Excellent for irritations
The texture is thick but smears easily, and forms a layer that remains on the skin, even in prolonged diaper changes. In many cases, irritation or redness begins to improve very early: for example, the manufacturer indicates that in a clinical study 90% of babies showed relief in 12 hours.
