Treats and prevents diaper rash, protects chapped or cracked skin, soothes minor skin irritations, and provides relief from dry, itchy, or irritated skin. Often used for general skin protection in infants and adults with sensitive skin.

Dimethicone forms a protective hydrophobic barrier on the skin's surface to lock in moisture and shield against irritants. Allantoin promotes skin cell regeneration and helps soften keratin. Menthol activates cooling receptors in the skin, providing a soothing sensation that temporarily relieves itching and minor pain.

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Discontinue use if irritation, redness, or rash worsens. Do not apply to deep or puncture wounds. Consult a healthcare provider before use on infants under certain ages or for extended periods. Not intended to treat serious skin conditions.
