The Bepanthol Baby Balm in a 100 gram jar is a protective cream for the diaper area, with 5% provitamin B5. Its texture is rich and semi-transparent, without mercury, fragrance, dyes or preservatives. It is the size that stays permanently on the changing table and is enough for systematic, daily use.
It is aimed at parents looking for a daily-use cream for the diaper and not an emergency solution for a bad week, as well as mothers who want a dual-purpose product: protection against diaper rash for the baby and care for the breast area during breastfeeding.
The diaper creates a closed, warm and moist environment. When the keratin layer stays in moisture for hours, it swells and loses its cohesion, so small frictions that normally would leave no trace start to cause irritation. On this already vulnerable skin, the enzymes of the feces act, enhanced by the alkalinity of the urine.
The cream inserts a fatty, semi-permeable layer between the skin and the diaper. According to the manufacturer, it creates a transparent shield of protection on the surface of the epidermis, protecting against the causes of irritation and scientifically proven to reduce friction during application. Because it does not contain mercury, it does not leave a white opaque crust and is easily removed.
The second aspect concerns panthenol. The provitamin B5 is water-soluble, penetrates the keratin layer and retains water within it. In the body, it is converted into pantothenic acid, which participates in the metabolism of skin cells. The manufacturer states that thanks to provitamin B5, the Baby Balm supports the natural process of skin repair from within.

The classic Bepanthol Cream with 5% provitamin B5 is a general care cream for dry and distressed adult skin. The Baby Balm is a cream, i.e. oilier and more covering, designed specifically for the protection of the diaper area.
The product is intended for external use. That is why the manufacturer asks breastfeeding mothers to remove any residue from the breast before breastfeeding. If there is ingestion, contact a doctor or the Poison Control Center.
It is an oily cream, so in large quantities it may leave a mark on the fabric. A thin layer and a few seconds of waiting before closing the diaper limit the problem.
The oily residues may over time reduce the absorbency of cloth diapers. If you use cloth diapers, ask the manufacturer or place a protective sheet between them.
No. According to the INCI and the manufacturer, it does not contain preservatives, fragrance or dyes. However, it contains lanolin, which is a known contact allergen for a small percentage of people.
