Description

What Is Sudocrem Care & Protect?

Sudocrem Care & Protect is a triple-action protective barrier ointment formulated for delicate, nappy-prone skin. Hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested, it is free from artificial colours and preservatives.

The ointment provides a breathable layer that seals in natural moisture, protecting skin from irritation, rubbing, and external contaminants. It also conditions the skin and supports natural recovery.

Key active ingredients include:

• Vitamin E & Pro-Vitamin B5 – maintain soft, smooth, and healthy skin

• Lanolin – forms a protective barrier to guard against infection

Sudocrem Care & Protect Benefits

• Clinically tested and hypoallergenic

• Free from fragrance, preservatives, and colourants

• Creates a breathable barrier for maximum comfort

• Suitable for daily use from birth

How Sudocrem Care & Protect Works

Sudocrem Care & Protect works by forming a thin, protective layer over the skin while locking in moisture. This helps prevent redness, soreness, and irritation caused by prolonged contact with urine, faeces, or friction.

Vitamin E and Pro-Vitamin B5 promote skin regeneration and keep skin soft and supple, while lanolin provides a protective barrier against external irritants and potential infection.

How to Use

1. Clean and dry the nappy area thoroughly.

2. Apply a thin, even layer of Sudocrem Care & Protect.

3. Gently massage in light, circular motions, ensuring coverage in skin creases.

4. Reapply at every nappy change, especially overnight.

For existing nappy rash, use Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream to soothe and heal affected areas.
