  • Vanish Gold

    We often need to soak our baby’s clothes as he can make quite the mess! We have found that Vanish works particularly well and removes even the toughest food stains. Also my husband’s shirts often build up unsightly stains in the underarms and Vanish seems to do the trick. I will definitely buy again.

  • Vanish Works

    Vanish Gold has become the number one stain remover in our house as it works so well. We have continued to use it as we get some pretty grubby clothes around here and it always does a good job of getting rid of the nastiest stains. I always recommend it to people.

  • great product

    Hello. I think that vanish is a little bit pricey to buy in the shop, even with a discount. I think that the amazing way that this works, justifies the cost though. You only really need a little of the product for spot stains but i use the recommended amount in the washing. This actually works well and does what it says it will do on the container!. This is a great size to store in the laundry and is very versatile to use. This gets out a wide variety of stains and it does not wreck or damage the clothes in any way. overall i am pretty impressed with this product and it’s amazing range of cleaning ability especially with my three young children always messing up their clothes or sheets etc. Thanks for taking the time to read my review on vanish.

  • I'm impressed!

    My 7 yr old son wore a white t-shirt for photos, by the end of the day he had grass, strawberry, chocolate and who-knows-what else stains. Looking at it I pretty much thought I would have to throw it out. I chucked it in with the other clothes and some Vanish Gold and it came out white with no stains…..I was impressed!

  • Fantastic

    I dont normally use anything else but washing liquid but with all our outdoor messy play, gardening and pets our clothing needed a little extra something. Vanish gold has worked a treat.



  • It works for most things

    With two grotty kids in the house, I am always needing to remove stains. I have found that this product works on most things and does not make the clothes fade. The only stains I have not been able to remove are the turquoise texta stains from daycare (does anything actually work on those?!) and some strange oil stains I found that nothing seems to shift. Overall, I’d say this is a good product that I would use again, and again.. and again!

  • Won't use any other stain remover! Highly recommend!

    As a mum of a football & basketball playing 12 year old boy, 4 year old very messy over active boy and a 20 month old princess that eats like a messy little piggy i always have stained clothes to soak & wash. I have used many other stain removers but this by far is the best and i will now not buy or use anything else. I soak the soiled clothes in it and then put it in the wash cycle as well and majority of the stains come out. Highly recommend this product!

  • great new product from napisan!

    as a mum to a toddler and a baby I constantly have clothes with stains! I have always used napisan but was executed when they brought out this new one! It is a great improvement and works wonders! My toddler is mid toilet training so I have used it for accidents of the “number two” variety, also food and paint stains from daycare and with my baby also a lot of “number two” stains which are normally big messy explosions (so yuck!!) so far any stain that I have thrown at it it has worked!! Thank you napisan! (Otherwise I would be buying more clothes for my kids haha!)

    I hate washing & have 2 young boys who can’t stay clean. Vanish Gold works wonders on the dirt, food, paint, blood, poop, nappy rash cream & general grime that they manage to cover themselves in daily. It took a little longer than 30 secs to get the paint out but the point is that it got it all out! All up I’m very happy with this product 🙂

  • love it!

    its the best stain remover on the market. ive tried all the others and I often had to re wash the clothing cos it still had staining. with this, I know its one wash every time. with 4 young kids mess is a daily occurence and with dinner, and crawling, arts and crafts, digging in the mud, and grass stains…. and the occasional bloody knee etc, there is a myriad of stains in every wash and to be able to only have to use one product to get the lot out is so convenient and so much easier. wont buy anything else

  • essential household cleaner, never be without it

    I have used the pink vanish that has been around for many years and love it, I have added it to every wash, used it on every stubborn stain, cleaned carpets, toilets, cars, you name it with it, from a solution to a paste, so when this lovely new package with a gold lid came on the market I had to try it, well it certainly meets expectations and removes all marks from clothes in the wash, it brightens a load when a cap is added with the detergent and i have adult sons who have always had nose bleeds from young children so I am constantly having to wash linen and pillow cases with large amounts of dried blood on it, this can be a trial with high threadcount sheets, but with the gold vanish I find I do not even have to soak, just a paste on the worst and in the wash, no light staining, white is white, worth every cent no need to wash again, this is a fantastic product and I did not think they could improve on the old one, but they have.

  • Fantastic product

    I love this product but it does not work in less than 30 seconds at all! I use it daily to get stains out and love it but it takes more time. It is quite costly but definitely worth every cent. I would recommend this product to any mum with kids that make a mess and stain their clothes, I have only had one item that I couldnt get the stain out of but it lightened the stain! A great product better than any other on the market

  • Not as good as i was expecting.

    I used this on a range of different stains on different types of material and i wasn’t impressed by the results. Its around the same effectiveness as standard napisan and the aldi version. It didn’t get blood out of tshirts even after trying the paste option and soaking overnight. It removed some of the grease stains on my partners work shirts but no more than the standard napisan does. About the only thing that i can see that is a real improvement with this product is the smell its not as toxic smelling is the standard napisan is. I dont think i’ll spend the extra money to buy this product again unless its on sale for cheaper than the standard stuff.

  • A laundry winner - extends the life of my clothes

    As I said in the title, Vanish Gold is a true laundry winner – extends the life of my clothes and is so easy to use. I have used some cheaper brands and they just don’t cut the mustard! I am lucky to have a front loader, and I can do a soak or pre wash load that I can use Vanish Gold in. It really gets stains out and allows me to trust in a product working.. Thanks Vanish Gold

  • This stain remover worked!

    Although I wasn’t picked for this review, I decided to try it. It works better than others in the Vanish range and as an added bonus it didn’t affect my hubby’s sensitive skin. I’ll use this rather than the one for sensitive skin in future as that often doesn’t get the stains out first go.
    I am so pleased that I decided to try this stain remover anyway as it really works and I was pleasantly surprised.

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.
