Penaten Creme, 150 ml

Made for the European market. This is the European formulation, sold under EU cosmetics rules, which prohibit or restrict well over a thousand substances where the American list of outright bans runs to about a dozen. Formaldehyde, hydroquinone and several parabens are not permitted in it. It is not the same product as the American version sold under the same name — customers who grew up with it tell us they can tell.

The German nursery standard since 1904 — a thick zinc-oxide barrier cream for nappy area, chapped skin and anywhere that needs protecting rather than moisturising.

• Proven three-phase protection, as printed on the lid
• 1. Wound protection — soothes irritated skin and helps redness settle from the first use
• 2. Moisture protection — keeps wetness away from baby skin
• 3. Skin protection — leaves a long-lasting visible barrier for up to 12 hours
• With zinc oxide, lanolin and panthenol
• Skin compatibility dermatologically confirmed
