Bepanthen Nappy Care Ointment - 30g

Bepanthen Nappy Care Ointment – 30 g is a clinically proven baby skincare ointment designed to protect delicate skin from the causes of nappy rash while supporting its natural recovery. Its gentle, breathable formulation forms a transparent barrier on the skin that helps shield against irritants and friction associated with wetness and rubbing from nappies.

This ointment is so mild it can be used at every nappy change, including for those with very sensitive or newborn skin. The Provitamin B5 (Panthenol) it contains helps to nourish and support skin’s natural repair, while sealing in moisture to keep skin soft, smooth and hydrated.
