Direct anti-inflammatory action

Zinc oxide actively denatures cell proteins and forms albuminates, significantly reducing local tissue inflammation and irritation.

Reliable drying and adsorption

Efficiently decreases fluid exudation on damaged skin areas, accelerating recovery in diaper rashes, dermatitis, and eczema.

Stable protective barrier

Creates a structural layer over the epidermis, shielding sensitive skin structures from external moisture and mechanical irritants.

Pediatric diaper rash protection

Serves as an ideal prophylactic option for child skin zones in prolonged contact with wet linens, preventing diaper dermatitis.
