Countless Filipino moms have testified to its effectiveness and became a fan of the brand. Some parents have noted that it provides instant relief that helps soothe their babies.
It contains Avocado Perseose® which strengthens the skin barrier along with zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is a pretty common ingredient in rash creams as it protects the skin from the rash.
We were impressed to know that Mustela is an advocate of ethically sourced ingredients.
This is an important feature because you only want the best of the best ingredients for your child. Thus, we can recommend this product to parents whose babies have extremely sensitive skin.
Mustela Vitamin Barrier Cream does not contain any fragrance, preservatives nor phthalates which are known irritants to the skin. Mustela also has certifications that it is clinically tested under extreme conditions.
You can find Mustela in SM Department Stores or you can shop them online through Lazada and Shopee for P540. We know it’s quite expensive compared to the other items on the list, but we still think it is worth trying out.
A common feedback from parents is that Mustela needs to remove the unnecessary shredded paper in their packages. For now, you can request to have it removed.
We hope they can come up with more environmentally-friendly packaging in the future.

The Human Nature Natural Nappy Cream is a great option for parents who are conscious of the ingredients that they use for their babies. It has soothing abilities without the need to use harsh chemicals.
Zinc oxide, which is a known ingredient to relieve rash, is paired with coconut oil to keep the skin plump and hydrated. The beeswax and kaolin clay help keep the moisture away.
It’s important that the nappy cream is water-resistant. This means that the rash will not get infected, since it will not come in contact with water or sweat.
Many mothers have testified to the effectiveness of this product with soothing their kids’ rashes. In fact, it has become a household staple to some.
Not only is the Human Nature Natural Nappy Cream good for babies – people with sensitive skin will also appreciate this. It’s good to know that they are free from toxic chemicals that can cause more irritation to the skin.

A common feedback from their customers is that they hope it comes in a bigger container.
We also hope that this cream can be offered in tube form, much like the other creams, for hygiene purposes. The constant dipping back and forth can cause bacterial build-up, unless you are using a spatula and not your hand.

Pros
- Soothes instantly
- Pediatrician-recommended
- High concentration of zinc oxide
Cons
- Expensive
- Easily wipes off
If you’re looking for a lightweight diaper rash cream, we think it’s worth checking out the Aquaphor Diaper Rash Paste. According to moms, it instantly soothes their baby’s skin without feeling heavy and goopy.
Aquaphor also takes pride in being a pediatrician-recommended brand. This product has also gone through numerous lab tests to make sure that it is effective; and most importantly, safe for your kid.
What makes the Aquaphor Diaper Rash Paste highly effective is that it has a very high concentration of zinc oxide that treats the rash. It is paired with shea butter that is known to be a moisturizing ingredient.
Although Aquaphor is not officially carried in the Philippines, you can still buy them through online platforms like Shopee and Lazada for P649. It’s important that the store you are buying from is an authentic seller, so we linked a highly rated shop above.
Many users find the Aquaphor Diaper Rash Paste quite expensive. So if you’re on a tighter budget, there are definitely cheaper options on the list.
Another con of this product is that it easily wipes away due to its runny consistency. Despite calling itself a healing paste, it does not adhere to the skin like a paste – which means you’ll need to constantly reapply.

The Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream might be quite difficult to find in stores, you’d have better luck in buying them online. The usual price ranges from P645-804 – always make sure to buy from trusted sellers only.
Be careful when using this product as it adheres to the skin extremely well. This might be a con for people who do not like thick and sticky products. It can be pretty hard to wash off so you need to scrub it gently.

Pros
- Lightweight and non-sticky
- Fast-acting
- Safe for face and body use
Cons
- Small tube
- Spilled content
If you are into natural ingredients that do not contain toxic and harsh chemicals, the Tiny Buds in a Rash – Diaper Rash Cream is a good option to consider.
Many users enjoy the lightweight feeling that it leaves the skin. This has a gel-like formulation that does not leave a sticky residue on the skin; it gets easily absorbed and dries quickly.
It is formulated free from harsh chemicals, which makes it safe to use on the face and body. Little ones get the benefits of fatty acids from olive oil that is high in antioxidants and vitamin E that restores the skin’s barriers.
Tiny Buds is available in SM Department stores and online via LazMall and Shopee Mall. You can also purchase it from their website for P185.
We find it quite pricey, considering you only get a small tube of product for the price. We hope they release a bigger size since it easily runs out and you may need to apply a lot to cover a larger area.
A common complaint also is that customers received the products with spilled content. This does not seem like an isolated incident, so we hope that Tiny Buds would look into their quality control procedures.
