This diaper cream is great. At first I was a bit irritated because unlike other zinc creams the cream dissapears fairly fast (by the next diaper change, I usually don’t find any residue; with other diaper creams, the white residue is visibile much longer). But it really works! I start applying it when I first see redness, and within half a day the redness is gone. We’ve had no serious diaper rash so far (10 weeks with some seriously runny poo…).
Others seem to know it’s good to: I was gifted this cream seperately by two friends.

I don’t have children but I keep this around because it works like a charm on any skin irritations I get due to heat rash and chafing. I prefer this over other diaper rash creams because it absorbs into my skin, unlike others that end up just sitting on the surface and end up feeling slimey. One major brand used to stain my clothes so I decided to try a “natural” one and I’m glad I did. It’s definitely more expensive but I don’t use it that often and I will gladly pay more for something that I enjoy using. I don’t like fragrances (I don’t understand why they put fragrance in diaper rash creams to begin with) but the calendula is pleasant, non-irritating and doesn’t scream “baby”.
P.S. this works good as a spot treatment for pimples too!

I love this diaper creme! I tried several top drugstore variety diaper rash brands on the market (some out of desperation, when I didn’t have any beloved Weleda on hand, like desitin) and NONE worked like this one.
My little girl would frequently develop irritation in her private regions while wearing a diaper, and the only creme that would effectively get RID of the rash in ONE NIGHT was this one. Bonus that you can feel good about what’s going on your baby’s skin. Love love love.

Love this diaper cream. I had trouble with acne eruptions healing on my face. They would just seem to get worse and become pits and leave scars. I started with another Zinc cream but switched to this one. It works fast, natural, no mineral oil or petrolatum and healed my acne.

This is a little bit on the expensive side for a diaper cream. I use it more as a hand and foot salve. I like how well this moisturizes and although it is a bit greasy in the beginning, it melts into the skin nicely after a few minutes. The only drawback is that this has lanolin in it, which I personally don’t like because it does not seem sanitary. I would repurchase, but I hope they swap out the lanolin for something else.

This is a fantastic product. It has zinc, lanolin, calendula… should be in every first aid kit. Great as a mask or night treatment for those who suffer with acne, especially if the spots or marks get cracked or sore. It is a very greasy cream due to the lanolin so some people might not like it as a facial treatment but I find it is fine as long as you don’t overuse it. No parabens, petrochemicals or synthetic fragrance.

UPDATE [07/2010]: moved over to A-Derma’s Dermalibour cream. Fragrance-free, cruelty-free, vegan ingredients (as far as I can see, anyway, and more so than this), and nicer to my armpits. It’s more expensive, though, being marketed in part as a heavy-hitting repair cream.
Best “greener” zinc oxide cream I’ve found. There are several others around, but all smell–to my nose–very strongly of lavender. Which I don’t like (quite aside from cytotoxity issues etc.) This one doesn’t: just plain old chamomile and marigold. And it’s plain and simple on the ingredients too, with a good healthy 12% ZnO.
My other favourite zinc oxide cream (here in Canada) that’s easily available in B&MS: Zincofax fragrance-free. Call it, well, an unfragranced version of this, but based on mineral oil and petrolatum rather than beeswax, sweet almond oil, and sesame seed oil.
While the Weleda cream is petrochemical-free, mainly plant-based, and cruelty-free (and from a very respectably ethical company), it’s not vegan. The only vegan ones I’ve found have contained lavender. Other than Dermalibour, which contains no animal ingredients, is cruelty-free, but not actively marketed as vegan…
The Weleda comes in a tube with a screw-cap lid. Unlike the more usual plastic tubs for other ZnO creams.
Uses: this is a white pasty thick cream, for topical application. Main use: on infant posteriors. Handy for adults on any rashes, skin irritations, low-grade zits, general soothing and healing and bug-combatting. Good on some kinds of eczematic patches too (if caught before they get to the dry, flaky, fragile stage). Great for deodorizing armpits: first thing in the morning I’m using this or the Zincofax, a layer of Lafe’s Unscented Spray Deodorant (basically potassium alum/mineral salt), and then a layer of Burt’s Bees Baby Dusting Powder (corn starch, bicarbonate of soda, clay). Lasts pong-free all day, there’s just a hint of subtle not unpleasant muskiness in the evening: but none of that sour milk tone of, well, deodorizing failure… and the powder absorbs most of the actual sweat.
Be careful on face: some people are less tolerant of lanolin, though it’s usually fine–and, indeed, the ingredients in this kind of minimalist unguent are low-comedogenicity and low-irritation. I’ve put this stuff on a 4 for that reason; mild lanolin issues here.
Recommended for anyone looking for a ZnO cream that doesn’t overpower you with the lavender, or for an alternative to the usual drugstore ones. Though more expensive than them, it’s still a much more decent price than any other similar product found in my local Whole Foods and similar. Costs around CAD 12.00-14.00 for 81g.
