There are two types of nappy creams, barrier creams and medicated creams.
  • Barrier creams - These keep everything your baby produces in his or nappy away from the skin. It should help nappy prevent nappy rash, particularly in reusable nappies, though it may affect the absorbency of some disposable nappies.
