  • Recommend

    I would love to recommend Aveeno Dermexa Wash and the moisturizing cream to other parents. I have been using the Aveeno for some time now and I think it is really gentle for little babies and even older kids. I sometimes use the wash as a bubble bath for my son. He loves to make bubbles. The products are good quality and trap moisture. Recommend trying.

  • Love it

    My son and I absolutely love the Aveeno baby products and the Aveeno Dermexa Wash is no different. The wash is gentle on the skin and helps to contain the moisture rather than lose it. My son loves the smell which is mild and not too strong. I love the fact it is not expensive and the quality is just great. Highly recommended for all mum with lil buns and even older kids.

  • So good

    I have used the Aveeno Baby Dermexa Wash recently for my 5 year old as I was a out of baby wash for him and just gave it a try. I must say this product is really gentle on a child’s skin, and so pleasantly calming. I use it as a night time routine now and it works wonders. My son hasn’t complained about any itching. His skin isn’t allergic but I still but gentle products for him. Love the product. Recommend trying.

  • Great for itchy skin

    Both myself and my Bub get quite irritated skin – using dermexa wash along with Aveeno baby moisturiser our skin has been so much better!
    Less dry and less itchy which is a relief.

    Great sizes available and easy to use pump packs available!
    Travel size packs would be great (i have not seen any) but theres nothing stopping me from popping some in reusable travel containers

    Better Late than Never ???? We have been enjoying our Aveeno Baby wash for 2weeks now. If your not one for fragrance this has a soft subtle oatmeal smell. Leaves the skin feeling fresh and super soft. Perfect to sooth nappy rash or heat rashes. My 2year old daughter suffers horrible nappy burn and this is the only wash she hasn’t screamed at.

  • A great wash and moisturiser!

    I received the Aveeno Baby Dermexa wash and moisturising cream as part of the trial team. I had used the cream before but not the wash and I’m wishing I’d used it earlier!
    When I first used the wash, I had to make sure I hadn’t picked up the wrong bottle – the wash was nice and thick and I thought it was the moisturiser. The wash left my son’s skin feeling soft and moisturised. The moisturising cream is easily absorbed and helps to prevent eczema flare ups in the kids. Would definitely recommend this range!

    I really enjoyed using the Aveeno Baby Dermexa Wash and Moisturising Cream on my little one. She has sensitive skin and this didn’t irritate it. Her skin felt soft as soon as she got out of the bath, then the moisturising cream made it even smoother. I’d definitely purchase the duo again as it works for us!

  • Great product

    I was really impressed at the texture which doesn’t slide off bub as soon as applied, and the way it didn’t dry our bub’s skin. My only suggestion for improvement is the scent. It’s natural but I’d prefer it smelt more neutral like the cream does. Overall a brilliant product for sensitive skin.

  • Found it better than the expensive brand

    Really impressed. My 6m old and 4yo (with skin issues) currently use a leading brand from chemist, and I was shocked that both the body wash and particularly the moisturiser, actually seen to reduce dry skin more than the one we were using. The cream absorbs so fast and leaves a silky non sticky finish. The smell is natural and neutral, and it rubs in quickly.

  • Aveeno Baby Dermexa

    I always test products on myself before trying on my son. If it’s no good for me then it is definitely no good for my son. Both of us have very sensitive skin and a lot of products cause eczema so I was surprised that I didn’t get any breakouts.
    Dermexa wash and moisture cleans without being harsh and makes the skin feel so soft. If you don’t like strong smelling fragrances this is definitely for you as it has a natural and gentle smell of oatmeal.

  • Works well

    My son is currently 6 months old, and suffers from some mild eczema on the face and general itchiness on the skin. With using the wash and moisturiser, it hasn’t flared up the skin – in fact I feel like it’s improved the texture and my baby doesn’t seem to be scratching as much. Previously we were using another popular brand of baby wash which was meant to be gentle on skin, however it caused my bub a lot of issues. I quite like the texture of the moisturiser too. I would highly recommend using this Aveeno combo.

  • Aveeno Baby Review

    After testing for a week in the bath & home I have found her skin to be smoother & appearing more vibrant!
    She also seems happy for me to apply the moisturiser as it spreads on the skin with ease.
    All over, it\’s a product id purchase!

    I have been using the Aveeno Dermexa wash and moisturiser on my 2 year old son and my 6 year old daughter and we have all been loving it! The formula is gentle and soothing on their eczema prone skin and i have found that it has help heal their existing flare-ups. The lotion is a lovely texture-not to heavy- and is very easy to apply and absorbs relatively quickly. Very much recommend and will repurchase.

    I received the Aveeno Baby Dermexa Wash to trial along with the accompanying Dermexa moisturiser. The wash comes in a 236ml with a lid where you depress one side to open it.
    With the heat of summer, my son’s eczema has started flaring up so I’m excited to try this with him and see how he goes.

    My little one’s favorite part of the day is definitely his bath time. Apart from making sure water temperature is spot on, I only use products that cleanse and moisturise but gentle for my baby’s skin.

    Having used Aveeno Baby Lotion before on my first baby, I am confident that Aveeno Baby Dermexa Wash can be trusted.

    After a week of use, I must say it worked really well on my bub’s skin and I would recommend this product to other mums out there!

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.
