I was selected to take part in the trial team for this product. I was actually really excited when these products arrived as I am a fan of Wild ferns range!
The box has this beautiful yellow to golden orange ombre with manuka flowers over it, and the most adorable picture of a baby asleep on a manuka flower - even the inside of the box is yellow with white manuka flowers all over it. The barrier creme itself comes in a white tub with labels on the lid and tub itself that are similar in design to the box, including embossed baby and lettering.
The lid is a screw top and there is a solid plastic seal to stop the creme from getting on the lid. Unfortunately I misplaced my seal the first time I used it, but that has not inconvenienced me much. It just means that when my child chucks the tub around and it lands on it's lid, there is creme on the lid.
The barrier creme has a pleasant aroma and I found it actually quite soothing on my hands. I get eczema on my fingers, and if anything I found it soothed them and helped them heal. The texture wasn't as thick as the ecostore baby creme we have been using, and I liked that. Especially now that the morning are colder, it made it very easy to get out of the tub and warm a little before putting it on his bottom. I found I didn't need much and it spread quite well. I also found it helped heal any problem areas at the same speed that bepanthen does too.
We used this every night after his shower and every morning when he wakes up and there hasn't been any problems since we started using this.
I would highly recommend this product, it would be a fantastic gift for a friend with a newborn. We will be repurchasing, that's for sure!
Thank you BR for allowing me to trial this.So glad I found this Awesome product. My bubs didn’t end up with any nappy rash or red marks while using this. He does suffer from dry and sensitive skin so getting to trial this on him was really great. I’m converted. Product with Honey and Avocado AND coconut oil... bliss This comes in a easy to use tub and quite easy to get the product out. It glides on easily on the skin and has a nice mild honey smell to it which I found that did last quite a while. I used this on my toddler twice a day just in the morning and night but found it to be really effective as I didn’t see his skin flaring up or having red marks. This actually seemed to calm his skin down a lot. ( thanks to the brilliant combo of ingredients) Price wise I feel it is a little bit pricey but with the results I have had with my child it is totally worth it. Would definitely recommend for bubs who suffer from eczema and sensitive skin.
