A Pasta Protetora dos Pequenos

I was a bit skeptical about how thick a zinc-based paste would be, but it spreads smoothly and creates a lasting barrier that held up through my baby's longest nighttime stretches. No redness at all since switching to this.

Three weeks of nightly changes and no sign of redness creeping back, which is exactly what I hoped for when I spotted zinc oxide on the label. It spreads thin enough that I don’t have to rub it in hard on her sensitive bottom, and the tube lasts way longer than I expected.

The zinc oxide in this paste really does create a solid barrier, and I’ve noticed far less redness after diaper changes. It’s thick without being impossible to spread, which makes a big difference when you’re dealing with a squirmy baby.
