Grandma Els Diaper Rash Ointment Gentle Protection Relief for Babys Delicate Skin Pediatrician-Approved Moisturizing Barrier Safe for Cloth

I love Grandma El's. Smells great, goes on great, and works! Our daughter has never had a diaper rash and we use this when we start to note a little redness in her bottom. By the next change, it's all gone. This is also one of the few diaper creams compatible with cloth diapers. Update 3/23/17: Been using this cream for four years now and wanted to update on a couple of things. Still prefer this product above all other creams. 1. Price- yes it's more expensive than other creams but a tub goes a long way. In 4 years, I've only purchased 4 of these. 2. Effectiveness - for minor redness this stuff works great and is effective within hours. For severe diaper rash, like any other product you have to lather this on like icing on cake. You have to put a lot so that the skin underneath gets a chance to heal without being exposed to the acidity of urine. If you do that, it will wipe out the rash but it will take a day or two much like other diaper rash creams. 3. Eczema- my daughter has moderate eczema and I've tried every cream recommended but nothing seemed to moisturizer and protect her skin well enough. One day I notice an eczematous rash on her bum and decided to put grandma els on it. The next day her rash wasn't inflamed anymore and her skin felt and looked more moisturizer. This was the aha moment. I decided to buy a tub and use it specifically as moisturizer for the entire body and within a day, the dryness decreased, her skin felt moisturized, and the redness and itching went down significantly. Needless to say, I use this for her eczema now exclusively. It does make the skin look shiny but it wouldn't have been any different with Vaseline. Overall this is a great product with multiple uses for kids. I can imagine that this would also be great for sunburn and overall skin dryness. Read more

Loving this!!!! This is weird, but it smells like the scented strawberry shortcake dvd cases I had in the early 2000’s, or the lip smacker strawberry flavor 🥹😅🫶🏻 it’s been a great cloth diaper safe barrier for my EXTREMEMLY sensitive baby. We switched him to cloth after issues with every disposable diaper and disposable wipe, every top market brand cream eventually became an irritant as well, so far it’s been smooth sailing with this one. It’s very pleasant. A little goes a long way, it glides on super gentle over already sensitive skin, the scent is so light/gentle but appreciated (I look forward to huffing the jar during stinky changes lol), and overall my diapers have been washing up with no trace of this beautifully over the last 6 washes or so, still no buildup or anything visible. Hopefully we keep not developing any reaction to this, because this ones been my absolute favorite! Read more

I have tried a few diaper rash creams on my daughter and this seems to be the only one that really works. I switched to using Desitin because I ran out of this stuff and my daughter ended up getting diaper rash with Desitin so I'm now ordering this in bulk to prevent from running out again. I had to return the last shipment because it was left on my doorstep on a hot day and unfortunately both jars melted. I returned them both for a full refund though and ordered more. I will never run out again, this is the best one I have found for prevention so far. It smells FANTASTIC and does not leave too much of a residue on diapers (I use disposable) but it is safe for cloth I have heard. It appears to be very soothing on my daughter and has a vaseline type texture. My daughter has never cried when putting grandma el's on her, however she has with desitin especially the maximum strength desitin. I received grandma el's as a shower gift from one of my best friends who swears by it and I am happy to report she was RIGHT!! Give it a try and you won't be disappointed!!!!! Read more

My friend recommended this diaper rash ointment to me when I was looking for something new to try, and this has become my favorite diaper rash cream! Whenever my daughter starts to get a diaper rash, I use this, and within a few uses her bum is already starting to look much better! It seems to especially work well when her bum looks a little dry or scaly, but it works great for redness too. It is cloth diaper safe and works the same way Vaseline or A&D ointment would work, but is more natural. I feel much better using this on my baby's bottom. I actually kind of like the way it smells, too. It isn’t really “scented”, per say, but has just a hint of odor that I tend to like. Don’t let that deter you, though, it’s really not that noticeable. If you found this review helpful, I would very much appreciate you giving me a "thumbs up". And if you have any questions, I'd be more than willing to answer them to the best of my ability! Read more
