Honey Babe Barrier Creme Review

I used it as a face mask on my dry areas while on holiday as I had got a little burnt & dry and my skin absorbed it up and felt soft and supple and soothed. I also used it on my daughters red chafing and nappy rash with satisfying results. When I think of a barrier cream I think of petrolium jelly based products like vaseline that just sit on the skin surface this prevents further moisture loss but does not really add any hydration and blocks the skin from breathing and does not provide the skin with any vitamins or nourish it. This Honey Babe Barrier cream is a fantastic option as it is soothing anti inflammatory hydrates ideal for irritated and minor skin conditions. packed with vitamins anti oxidants healing calming gentle anti bacterial anti fungal properties to name just some. It even has anti-aging benifts (rose hip & honey) acne fighting & preventing additives (Calendula & honey) making it ideal for the whole family. It is a multi purpose product the only thing I would be weary about is the coconut oil in it which could lead to break outs with repeated use so I would not use for acne if your break outs are severe & skin is oily. However a little on a sore erupted pimple or will help accelerate healing. Honey Babe Barrier cream could also be used for chafing dermatitis eczema psoriasis and other minor skin conditions and abrasions the cream even has some natural UV protection in it (avocado oil). For a nappy rash cream I know that what is in this cream is really healthy and I would choose it over mineral oil paraffin and petrolium based products for sure. It is worth mentioning that even creams from doctors and pharmacies for treating and preventing nappy rash and other skin irritations listed above often still have nasty toxins & manufactured chemicals in them but this cream does not and because of the carrier oil all the nourishment will penetrate into the deeper skin layers where it is needed most making the younger skin healthier soft supple nourished and it is natural, animal friendly & NZ made the honey is certified to be high quality. The product viscosity is thick so if baby turns it upside down it is not likely to run and spill everywhere. Those babies with allergies & parents that want natural quality should look at the additives in this product it really is good. Many of the additive properties over lap meaning they both can do the same things for so it feels like the product has double advantages. Be sure to check out the rest of the range my best pick is their oil.

This is more of a thick cream than I balm. I use it even for my skin. It has a nice honey scent that is not too strong. The cream is a little thick but that helps to provide a good barrier. I use it around his diaper area whenever I change him and I have also been using it around his nose because he's been having a runny nose and the tissues are not doing so good on his soft skin! He seems to like it and it is certainly helping!

This barrier cream works wonders for my little ones nappy rash. Such a comforting product that does not seem to irritate my little one at all. It has definitely left the nappy area looking hydrated and not sore looking at all. I noticed such a huge improvement in her nappy area after just a couple of uses.

I didn't hesitate using this product given that it contains so many natural ingredients - some of my favourites such as Avocado/Coconut oils and also Rosehip! As you can imagine these scents combined with Manuka honey makes this product smell and feel amazing. I really love the natural scent, not overpowering at all.

The barrier cream absorbs into the skin nicely too and feels lovely and light to apply, not super thick and greasy.

Such a reasonable price, and this barrier cream is sure to last a really long time as you only need to apply a little bit to the nappy area.

Love that this is a NZ made product also.

The day we received our trial was the day my daughter came home from daycare with a tummy bug, perfect time to put the cream to the test as there were lots more nappies to change in the days ahead. I love the consistency of the cream, its easy to rub in and it doesn't pull at the skin, i find some barrier creams are quite stiff and you need to really rub it in which isn't ideal when the area is sensitive. The tub is a good size and a little bit goes a long way. Lovely scent, not over powering. Definitely will purchase again once i know where i can get it from

This product feels great on the skin and I really loved the smell of it too. It's not too thick like some barrier creams and I found if was easy to apply to baby s bum.

Subtle, gentle smelling creme thats non greasy and long lasting. I used this in my daughters nappy area, under her nose and on my eczema and really liked it. I've tried lots of barrier creams and a lot of the leave heavy and greasy residue on the skin and don't smell very nice. The packaging is fine, easy to open tub - but not too easy for little ones to get into! I'll be continuing to use this creme as I really think it works well to protect skin in a gentle way while also supporting a Kiwi business

I have tried every barrier cream out there - not joking. I have tried a mixture of natural and synthetic and had very little luck. One brand I even refuse to have in the house after an "incident" where my darling daughter decided to create an artwork of barrier cream on a carpet media! Not only was it a nightmare to clean - I also decided anything that doesn't come out of carpet after all my effort doesn't need to be applied to my precious offspring. In the end I had some luck with a baby bottom butter that I purchased from overseas - but this has its limits shipping, price etc. And aged very quickly.. vanilla scent to vinegar - no thanks! I was so excited to try the HB barrier cream when it showed up in the trial pack. This is the product I loved the most out of all 3. I have seen this Wild ferns brand at life pharmacy but never the HB range of theirs.. so although I do wish it was more readily available, I loved this one product so much I would consider paying for shipping online to order more. I personally like the packaging - a pottle in a box both very matchy matchy with the adorably cute baby on the packaging. I like that the pottle has a lid and another seal to stop the contents settling in the lid when chucked in the nappy bag. This can easily be removed if this step will bother you when changing nappies for example. The box also states expiry 2021 - very decent! It is a thick cream - not runny, smooth - not gritty and wipes into place with ease. I used this on my son. He doesn't sleep all night but he does sleep long stretches so wearing a nappy for long periods we use a barrier cream in the groin area - a very common area known to need a barrier between the skin and moisture it may come in contact with. This creamy concoction worked a treat. No redness, no raw skin, no peeling and no product buildup like some other creams cause. The scent is pleasant and not too strong and a little went a long way. I think having the natural oil ingredients helped. I saw a dermatologist for my skin and he said one of the best oils to use for moisture was avocado oil and this cream ticks that box. One thing I will say is the directions are a bit lacking - apply as often as required - that's it really. I assumed no area was off limits from this statement so used it on my lips too and a few spots on my sons body. I like the fact the ingredients are 99% natural so I didn't worry about using it just as a barrier for soothing and re-hydrating baby's bottom for example. For the price, ingredients and how often you use it I think its great value compared to other barrier creams. It will definitely be recommended and given to my mum friends.

This was sent to me as a part of the Mystery baby care pack. This is my favourite product in the pack. It comes in a handy pot and is an easy application. We've had a run of rashes in the past and I am always very cautious as to what I use as barrier cremes. This one quickly because one of the best I have used. It's thick and has a pleasant fragrance. Knowing that it has Avocado Coconut oil , Calendula and Rosehip puts my mind at rest. I'll definitely be getting another pot of this when it's over.

I love this natural cream for my baby, it is thick which is perfect to keep any nappy rashes away and to protect the skin. It glides on really smoothly, and has a nice light vanilla fragrance. A little goes a long way and I find after 2-3 hours for the next nappy change the product is still there and doing the job! Definitely worth the price because it lasts such a long time. The lid screws on and off perfectly, no problems. My baby didn’t get any nappy rash or redness with the product, I would definitely recommend to a friend
