Protecting against nappy rash and chafing
Caldesene absorbs moisture and helps keep skin dry, forming a protective barrier that soothes and helps prevent nappy rash, prickly heat and skin chafing. Change nappies frequently, clean and dry the area gently, and apply as directed. When using powder around babies, shake it into your hand away from the baby's face and apply carefully to avoid inhalation. There's also an adult powder for skin-fold chafing.
