Desitin Paste Maximum Strength-1 Oz

As a parent, I've found Desitin Maximum Strength Diaper Rash Cream (40% zinc oxide) to be a real lifesaver for stubborn rashes—it creates a thick protective barrier that starts soothing irritation within hours and lasts through even the longest nights. A little goes a long way, and it's pediatrician-recommended, which gives extra peace of mind. The downside is that the paste is very thick and can be a bit tough to wipe off, and the light fragrance may not suit babies with extremely sensitive skin. Still, for fast, reliable relief when a rash flares up, this is one cream I always keep in the diaper bag.

I absolutely love this stuff, especially as a first time mom my in-laws got me the big container of it and a little goes a long way and I use this on my son before he has a rash so almost every other diaper change I put this on his butt to help prevent a diaper rash.
