I have tried every single diaper rash cream/ powder there is. The only ointment that has worked for me and my boys, is Aquaphor. It prevents, relieves and clears up all the diaper rashes in less then a day.
I ran out a couple days ago, I had other creams laying around from the baby shower as gifts. I used to prevent the rashes... The only thing it did was... NOT WORK! poor baby, his bottom was reader then an apple and his scrotum had an open sore on it from it. The past couple of days just reminded me why I haven't used anything else. And the only reason why I didn't go out and buy some Aquaphor, is because it's so expensive! about $15.00 depends on where you go and what sale the store has on it.
So in the past couple of days I used aveeno, destin, butt paste to knock off brands of these. NO GO!
I went out late last night to go buy some Aquaphor. By noon today, his rear was completely cleared.
Definitely worth the money I would have to say. Just don't use so much. All you need is enough to cover the area where he tends to get the rashes in 2 layers. Probably just 1/2 teaspoon to prevent. And if he does have a nasty rash, used twice that amount (1 teaspoon) to protect the area until healed.
The wonderful thing about this product, is that... not only does it do an excellent job at preventing, he heals at the same time. It also works on chafed cheeks, cuts, sores, scratches and even available for chapped lips!
This is one product that I will always make I have on hand in my home.
