A popular nappy cream has been recalled due to some reports of skin irritation after applying the product.

Curash says it’s recently become away of a ‘potential adverse reaction regarding short term skin irritation’ linked to the use of two batches of Curash Nappy Rash Cream.

Some users have reported increased skin sensitivity, redness or a rash after applying the cream. The symptoms subsided after the affected skin was washed with water.

Curash says that compare to the number of units sold, the instance of these reaction is ‘very low’.

  • Thats a very scary recall.
    I have never used this cream. I have however used the powder which I think is wonderful and I have put many people on to this as it works super well.

  • I always use Bepanthen. I tried the Curash a couple of times on nappy rash and it always seemed to hurt whereas the Bepanthen never did…
