Parfume free cream for nappy area (without zinc)?

[BabyMagic]

Can anyone recommend a perfume free cream for a nappy area without zinc in it? Just something mild for a sensitive skin?

I bought a really nice bottle from my home country but have struggled to find similar in the UK. I have Johnsons nappy cream but it has zinc in it and I don't really think that we need it as LO doesn't have a nappy rash or anything.

I use Weleda Calendula cream, not every nappy change, but when necessary. Its very natural and I don't think it has zinc in it.

We buy it in my local health food store, although I assume you can also buy it online.

Thanks Valentine. I had a look at the website and I think it has zinc (oxine) in it, but may be it is not as strong as Johnstone so if I don't find any cream without it I'll give this ago (or ask my mum to send some cream ).

tbh if your little one doesn't have nappy rash I personally wouldn't use anything as nappy creams can cause more problems sometimes. I also use the weleda one but only if either of my two has a red bum

I use Calendula lotion (not the creme) and only when my LO has a red bottom. Which is very rare. Works a treat on him. Its a very gentle product and natural. From healthfood stores. A little goes a looooooooong way.

If she has a red bum (not often) we use this:

It's lovely - no zinc, excellent for sensitive skin and I also use it as a lipsalve from time to time
Pure potions also do an oil. DD used to have really dry skin and grapeseed or olive oil wouldn't shift it but this stuff did. We put a capful in her bath (we give her a bath once or twice a week) and her skin is fine now.
