What should I pay attention to when applying diaper cream?

What is the application range of diaper cream? Because the baby's buttocks are delicate, applying diaper cream can reduce the irritation of urine on the buttocks. Let’s talk about this.

Diaper cream application range

Diaper cream is usually applied to the main skin of the buttocks and the sides of the thighs, but it is best not to apply it on the baby's anus. Girls should remember to avoid the perineum.

What should you pay attention to before using diaper cream

Local allergic reaction

This step is more important, as some babies’ buttocks may be allergic to certain ingredients in diaper creams, so it would be better to do some local tests before applying to a larger area.

Clean

Before using diaper cream, clean the baby's buttocks with warm water, so that the diaper cream can play a good protective barrier role.

Do not use if the skin on the buttocks is broken

Although diaper cream is advertised as mild and non-irritating, it inevitably contains a small amount of irritating chemical additives, so if your buttocks are very sensitive, it will only aggravate the symptoms.

Don't apply too thickly

This layer of protective film is not the thicker the better. If it is applied too thickly, it will affect its breathability. Just spread it evenly to form a thin layer.

Can diaper cream be used on the face?

It is best not to use diaper cream on your face.

First, diaper cream is used to prevent babies from getting red buttocks, and it is not specifically for wiping the face, so it is not good for facial eczema. Second, diaper cream is equivalent to a protective film that isolates the skin from urine. If applied on the face, it will cause the facial skin to become airtight and may cause facial skin diseases.

Is it necessary to buy diaper cream?

It is necessary.

Because babies have more bowel movements when they are young, and they cannot defecate independently, it is easy to get their tender butts dirty. Without the protection of diaper cream, the baby's butt will be infected by bacteria, and the baby will feel very uncomfortable, and it will also affect health, so it is necessary to buy diaper cream.
