Product Information

Full details

Penaten Cream is a trusted, dermatologically tested solution designed specifically for the delicate skin of newborns and infants. It provides a unique 3-phase protection formula that soothes irritation, reduces redness, and creates a long-lasting moisture barrier to prevent diaper rash. While it offers intensive 12-hour protection and moisturizing benefits, users should note that its rich, thick consistency requires thorough application and can be slightly difficult to wash off hands after use.

FAQs

Can I use Penaten Cream on a newborn?

Yes, Penaten is specifically developed for the delicate needs of newborns and infants.

How often should I apply the cream?

It is recommended to apply a thin layer during every diaper change to ensure constant protection.

Is this product paraben-free?

Yes, the formula is strictly paraben-free to prioritize your baby's skin health.

Does it work for dry skin beyond the diaper area?

Yes, its moisturizing properties make it suitable for soothing dry and sensitive skin patches on the body.

What is the main active ingredient for protection?

The cream features protective zinc oxide, which forms the primary shield against wetness and irritation.

How long does a tin typically last?

Because the formula is concentrated and a small amount is usually sufficient for each application, a 150ml tin is very long-lasting.

Troubleshooting

Cream is too thick and hard to apply

Warm a small amount between your fingertips before applying to the skin to improve spreadability.

White residue remains on skin

This is normal due to the zinc oxide; use a smaller amount per application or gently massage until it thins out.

Staining on clothing

The cream's protective oils may transfer to fabric; if this occurs, treat the stain with a pre-wash laundry stain remover before regular washing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Proven track record since 1904
  • Excellent barrier against diaper moisture
  • Dermatologically tested for sensitive skin
  • Highly effective at reducing redness
  • Long-lasting 12-hour protection

Cons

  • Thick texture can be difficult to spread

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Penaten Cream does not require specific setup—simply open the lid and apply to clean, dry skin during diaper changes. It is compatible with all standard diapers and baby wipes. To maintain optimal hygiene, store the tin in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When applying, ensure the skin is thoroughly cleaned and dried, as the cream's water-repellent nature can trap bacteria if applied over uncleaned skin. If you find the cream difficult to remove from your own hands after application, a gentle oil-based cleanser or warm soapy water will help break down the barrier effectively.
