Best Diaper Rash Creams for Kids with EczemaWe recently reviewed our favorite products to use with children with eczema. During the series, 64 nannies and au pairs emailed Be the Best Nanny Newsletter asking what diaper creams are best to use on infants with eczema and diaper rash?
First we need to look at the ingredients in the diaper rash cream. The Environmental Working Group recommends avoiding:
1. BHA - Banned in other countries because it can cause skin depigmenttion.
2. Boric Acid and Sodium Borate - Industry authorities caution against use on infants or damaged skin.
3. Fragrance - Allergens that may contain neurotoxic or hormone-disrupting chemicals.
