Review: Bepanthen Ointment (Nappy Rash)
During my pregnancy, I received a small tube of Bepanthen Ointment in a goodie bag. I tried a larger tube on Baby V since it is free from colourant, fragrance and preservative.
As Baby V is on cloth diapers, he only has minor rashes when poo is left on his diaper for too long. These are usually cleared up within a day by the ointment. As a precaution, I apply a thin layer of ointment on him at every diaper change.
It has worked well for him and does not affect the absorbency of his cloth diapers.
Pros:
- Prevents nappy rashes
- Clears any rash relatively quickly
- Cloth diaper-friendly
Cons:
- 50g tube is too big and messy; I prefer the 30g tube.
- Leaves a greyish stain on his cloth diapers

i also use bepanthen and love how it clears rashes so fast, but i still not sure to wear it since my daughter use cloth diaper. thank you for your review
Ever since Vee poo-ed less frequently, I only apply a thin layer of Bepanthen at the first sign of any redness. If more is needed, I’d put a liner on the diaper. With these steps, all his diapers are fine and don’t need to be stripped wash. (Strip-washing was needed in the earlier months when he used Bepanthen at every diaper change.)
Try Buds Soothing Nappy Rash Rescue Cream. It is organic and synthetic chemical free.
Thank you for your suggestion, Coco.
