Pro Vitamin B5 which gently aids natural recovery of irritated
sensitive skin while keeping it soft, smooth and moisturised.
Additionally, Bepanthen seals in the skin’s natural moisture, providing
optimal conditions to allow gentle skin recovery without drying out
your baby’s delicate skin. Clinically
proven, Bepanthen works by forming a long-lasting transparent layer,
protecting even the most delicate skin from irritants and rubbing. The
water-in-oil formulation keeps the skin healthy and hydrated, while the
ingredient Pro Vitamin B5 helps skin repair its natural protective
barrier. Bepanthen is so gentle it can be used at every nappy change to
help the most sensitive of skins, including that of premature babies as
it contains no colours, fragrance, preservatives or antiseptics.
Care Tips for reducing nappy rash:
Keep
it clean - Cleanse your baby’s bottom thoroughly every time you change
the nappy. If the area’s really soiled, try dipping your baby’s bottom
in a bowlful of warm water with an emollient bath treatment. Treat
the skin - Bepanthen is formulated to help the natural recovery of skin
and forms a long lasting, protective waterproof barrier over the skin,
while still providing the moisture needed to promote gentle recovery.
You can apply it after each nappy change. Be
gentle - Baby-wipes are sometimes too harsh for babies with sore and
sensitive skin, so try using cotton wool and warm water instead. Change
the nappy often - It’s vital to stop stale urine being in contact with
the delicate skin, so try to change disposable nappies frequently. If
you’re using Terry nappies, a disposable liner may help protect your
baby’s skin Clean the area thoroughly - At each nappy change the whole area should be cleaned and allowed to dry completely Use
a protective ointment - Coat your baby's bottom with a thin layer of
protective ointment such as Bepanthen at every nappy change and
especially at bedtime. This reinforces the skins natural barrier and
helps stop the irritating chemicals in urine and faeces from
penetrating Allow
the skin to breathe - Let your baby kick their legs without a nappy as
much as possible, make sure the room’s warm and there’s a towel or
nappy mat for any unexpected leaks! Loosen the nappy - Absorbent disposable nappies can keep the skin dry; but make sure they’re loose enough for air to circulate Wash carefully - Wash Terry nappies in non-biological products to prevent irritation and choose a boil wash to kill the bugs. Everyday
care - For everyday protection from the causes of nappy rash use a
gentle ointment designed for baby's delicate skin such as Bepanthen.
Many nappy creams available are designed to treat infected nappy rash
and contain ingredients such as antiseptics. Give the skin a chance - Avoid plastic pants and tight clothes as they stop the area breathing.
