Excellent product, nice smell, and it does work. Try also California Baby bubbles – they are bubblier than the ToysRUs version and are really tear free.

A friend of mine introduced me to California Baby about a year and a half ago. I am so pleased with all their products and this diaper cream is far superior to anything I’ve used before. The smell is pleasant, the consistency effective and there are no chemicals. I am on a crusade to support non-Chinese companies and California Baby fits the bill.

I’ve been giving this out as a gift at all the baby showers I’ve been attending lately.

This diaper rash cream is fabulous – very gentle on irritated or sensitive skin, and I love how smoothly it goes on and that a tiny bit goes a long way.

I wouldn’t use it as a protective barrier against wetness – it doesn’t provide a thick enough layer for that, but as a rash soother this stuff is great.

This stuff is wonderful on irritated or sensitive skin, and I love that a tiny bit goes a long way. It goes on very smoothly and easily – unlike some other diaper rash creams/ointments that you have to really smear to apply them.

The one down-side that I’ve encountered is that if you want a thick protective barrier against wetness than you would probably want one of the thicker creams/ointments versus this one, but for just everyday use or to treat a rash this stuff is great.

This was our pick because we use cloth diapers, and this California Baby is supposed to be one of the best for the cloth diapers. We’ve had no problems in that regard at all – can’t tell that it’s left a residue or affected absorbency whatsoever. I can also say that this cream has done a great job for us of soothing irritated skin; redness has cleared up in one diaper change or two. It also smells pleasant and herbal rather than “medicine-y”.

However, I don’t think it’s “heavy duty” stuff. It doesn’t seem to be an effective wetness barrier, if that’s what you need. (That’s probably why it’s OK for the cloth diapers!) I don’t know if it would cure ongoing rash problems, as we really haven’t had any. My guess is that different creams work the best depending on what the source of the problem is and perhaps on your baby’s skin.

In short, I’d recommend this for soothing irritated skin, especially for users of cloth diapers. For us, that’s enough to make it the only cream we’ve needed in 6 months.
