Make Your Very Own Diaper Rash Ointment
It is easy to make a diaper rash ointment that you can use after every diaper change to prevent and treat baby diaper rash.
If you do not have time to make it yourself and you want a great product made with natural ingredients and totally safe for you gentle baby's bum, try
Bottom Balm - diaper rash ointment.
This product is great because it is vegan, allergy-tested and non-irritating. I use it with my kids all the time and I love it! It is a salve that safely battles existing diaper rash and protects against flare ups. Because of the healing properties of many of the herbs used, like Calendula officinalis, it has healing powers you can use also for other things like cradle cap, bug bites, scrapes, minor rashes, burns, etc. I also use it!
