  • Best body lotion for my super dry skin

    I’m not a mom yet, but after moved to Australia, I found I have skin problems, too dry, itchy, appeared snake texture skin on my legs. I had tried to use many different body lotions, even an expensive one, I would vote Roaken is the best of the best. And worth for value, an inexpensive product but give tremendous result. I introduced to my friends and family, they all love it and can’t live without this product. All of them having dry skin and until skin peeled off like snake skin, but after had used this product, it gave an instant result after few applications, skin becoming smoother and brighter.
    Recently I have found some chemist and Priceline stop carry this wonderful product, I hope this product can continue to produce, because it is such a amazing product.

  • Hooray for Rosken

    After receiving such good results I told a good friend who has sun damaged skin. She tried ROSKEN and said she found it made a big difference. She liked the light fragrance and how well it went into the skin. I think she will be buying more in the near future.

  • ROSKEN reward

    This is a lovely moisturiser that works well. The cream is light and absorbs well into the skin. Rosken has a smell that is not overpowering. I mostly like to use it on the rough skin on my heals. A nice gentle cream that I would certainly recommend to others.

  • Great Moisturiser

    I have sensitive skin which dries out quite easily – either with the sun, or with the dryness of winter. This Intensive moisturiser helps to restore the moisture to my skin. It is a little gluggly applying, for my liking, but it smells great, is absorbed well and really helps my skin to maintain it’s moisture.

  • Sensitive skin this is ideal

    I have incredibly sensitive skin which doesn’t react well to most moisturisers. I get excema too so I need good moisture from gentle creams. This is a good product for my skin. I would recommend it although I don’t really like the smell. Rosken is a reputable brand that I trust. Love it

    Rosken Intensive moisture is great as an all year round moisturiser. I keep a bottle at work and use it each time I wash my hands, It is an affordable price and doesn’t contain any strong perfumes that could irritate my skin. Great for users who suffer from sensitive skin such as myself.

  • Rosken is the new beauty miracle

    I discovereded Rosken in a beauty bag and was very surprised by how great it is, it’s very moisturizing in a non greasy way. Immediately I saw a difference in my skin and it felt smooth, smelt fresh and was all round refreshed. Rosken could easily make this a more expensive product because it is a miracle product in my eyes.

  • No more dry skin

    No matter how many time I would apply moisturizer to my leg I would still get that dry lizard looking skin. I have try many different brands of moisturizer from cheap to expensive and most were great for the rest of my body but nothing suited my legs. Then my daughter recommended Rosken skin repair, not only did it give me smooth soft skin but it is also non greasy and smells great.

  • Great product I love it

    I have always got very dry skin no matter the moisturizer or water intake. I have been through lots of different ones but whilst pregnant my face was flaking all over the place from being so dry. My hands hurt from being so dry and I always have cracked heels but they were worse than ever. This product stopped my face flaking! Soothed my hands and my heels though still cracked have never felt better and it’s only day 3 🙂

  • Excellent for dry skin

    We have been using this product for years. My parents introduced us to Rosken . My husband’s work makes his hand dry and I complain that they are like sandpaper. One overnight application and those little cracks, roughness and flaky skin are softened and healed. Continued use keeps those cracks & dry skin for both of us!Good for cracks in hands and feets too.

Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.

Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.

One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.

We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.

Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums

What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.

1. Nappy Free Time

“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.

We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.

2. Change Nappies Frequently

“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member

Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.

3. Use A Barrier Cream

“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes

Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.

4. Choose Gentle

“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F

Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.


Nappy Rash Myths & Facts

🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies.
✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.

It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.

🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies.
✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.

Huggies’ Rapid-Dry™ Technology absorbs wetness instantly, reducing irritation risk.

🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation.
✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.

  • Really terrific advice. My daughter never had much in the way of nappy rash develop and I believe that because I did change her so frequently and we had a lot of nappy free time, especially in the warmer months of summer. Sure there is things to treat nappy rash but we all know prevention is best!

  • My first born had terrible nappy rash and ulcers from acid urine and none of the specialists prescription creams did anything. I finally used Petroleum Jelly and it cleared up his skin very quickly and kept future rashes at bay. It is cheap and easy to use and works the best of anything.

  • Any redness can be resolved with a tub of Sudocrem. It’s a cream that smells like lavender. Very pleasant and usually works quickly within the first application.

    Take it with you everywhere. It helps poo nappy changes. Just apply on bottom area to prevent future nappy rash. Your baby will be happy with it on. It doesn’t feel cold like a wet wipe.

  • I had issues with my son pooping a lot as a newborn. Sometimes it can be really hard to keep the rash at bay if you have a child that is constantly doing that. There is some acidity in the excrement and that can cause burning before it’s even been against their skin for long. I used to use paw paw cream on him and that worked best as a barrier.

  • Nappy Rash can be so raw and painful and i always worried so much when our babies had a bout of it. I remember trying so many things but always found good old petroleum jelly used regularly would help in keeping it at bay. There are some great suggestions in the article.

    Reply

  • I did find that not all nappy rash creams are as good as each other. After trialing many brands I settled on Sudocrem as the best for me and my baby. Changing nappies frequently and air time is also very important.

  • There are so many common sense tip in this article and they are tips that we followed. We kept everything as natural as possible on very soft and sensitive skin. We went with plenty of nappy free times and we were very fortunate to not encounter issues with nappy rash.

    Reply

  • This article describes very much what we always have done: frequent nappy changes, plenty of bare bum time, no fragrances also not in soaps and a good nappy rash cream. It can become more challenging when your child has diarrhea; in which case bare bum time becomes more complex and the skin more irritated in which the gentle washing with warm water, patting dry with a soft cotton flannel and good zinc cream is more important

    Reply

  • Even though I agree that prevention is key, I also think it’s important to have a good barrier cream to hand to help at the first signs of trouble. There are lots of good brands, you can pick any really that suits your baby’s skin. But use it liberally when you need it!

    Reply

  • Yay! First time seeing my own comment in an article! *happy dance*
    But yes, i do swear by changing their nappies as soon as it’s soiled. It’s what worked for us for both children! We always go prepared and change either before going out, during or in the car boot if we really had to

  • Nappy rash is horrible and prevention is definately better than cure. This is a fantastic article with some great tips. Especially the changing of the nappy frequently. Unfortunately sometimes especially once they’re on solids and their poops get yucky a little nappy rash can be unavoidable in which case a small amount of sudocreme clears it up quickly.

    Reply

  • We found that changing nappies frequently was key for us. And once the kids starting sleeping for long periods at night, we started using the really good quality nappies – Huggies, as it happens – while cheaper nappies were still okay for the day and frequent changes. Nappies do vary! .

    Reply

  • This is a really great reminder that nappy rash can happen but there are some great tips to help try and avoid it. I use to do a lot of nappy free time with my daughter when we were home as she had sensitive skin and I layered the barrier cream on all the time, especially at night.
