    nappy rash cream works a treat ;)

    we have stuff called sudocrem here, which is magic in a pot. but i reckon any nappy rash stuff would work.

    Love it!

    I burned myself on the iron the other day and couldnt find anything to put on it so i put a bit of that on there and it soothed the burned and took away some of the redness.

    I have also put it on insect bites too.

    My mate used to swear by it when she was younger, she used to plaster her face with it when she went to bed to treat any spots or blemishes she had!

    ah, you crazy foreigners have a different name for nappies ;)

    the stuff you put on babies' arses to stop them getting a rash when they pee themselves.

    it's basically just a really gentle but effective moisturiser, but it also has zinc in, which is fantastic for your skin.

    But, to quote the Head and Shoulders advert: If you're doing something right, keep doing it.

    yeah, that makes sense, but ive also heard that if you use the same thing continuosly your body can build up a natural imunity to it. is this more medicine, or can it happen with moisturiser??

    I think aloe would be ideal.

    Nappy rash cream = diaper rash cream.

    It also has lavender oil in it which is fantastic for....well, just about everything actually! But especially skin problems.
