Description
Weleda Baby Nappy Change Cream Calendula cares for and protects the delicate skin of the nappy area. It's recommended by paediatricians, built around calendula, and comes in a 75ml tube.
A cream backed by professional recommendation
Weleda notes this cream is recommended by paediatricians, which is worth knowing if you're choosing between several nappy creams and want one with some professional backing behind it. It's positioned specifically for delicate skin in the nappy area, rather than as a general body cream, and is sized as a 75ml tube that fits easily into a nappy bag.
Why calendula
Calendula is the defining ingredient, chosen for its traditional soothing use in sensitive, easily irritated skin. The cream carries Weleda's Certified Natural Skin Care mark, with organic ingredients.
A fragranced formula
Unlike some of Weleda's Derma range products, this cream isn't labelled fragrance-free, so it carries Weleda's typical natural fragrance rather than being scent-free. If you specifically want a fragrance-free nappy cream, the Weleda Baby Nappy Change Cream Calendula Fragrance Free or Weleda Baby Nappy Change Cream White Mallow Fragrance Free are worth comparing instead.
How to use it
Apply to the nappy area at each change, or as needed for extra care, onto clean, dry skin. A thin, even layer is usually enough, and the creamy texture is designed to spread easily without needing to rub it in firmly.
A note on persistent nappy rash
This is a cosmetic barrier cream rather than a medicated treatment. If nappy rash is severe, doesn't improve, or keeps recurring, check with your GP, maternal health nurse or pharmacist rather than relying on any cream alone.
