Description
Diaper rash is a form of dermatitis (skin inflammation). There are many possible underlying causes including contact /allergic reactions to creams, wipes or diapers, rubbing or friction, food sensitivities, or a bacterial infection (Staph or Strep) or yeast (Candida). From an herbal view this type of hot, red and damp skin condition is usually considered ‘damp heat’. The Emily Diaper Skin Soother Plus is formulated with all of these causes in mind. There are just 6 simple ingredients and like all of its products, it was formulated to be straightforward and effective. It is a safe, gentle unscented balm unlike any other diaper product we know of. GMO-free.
