Smooth as a baby’s bottom!
A couple of weeks ago, I stumbled upon a skincare forum and a few users were talking about using diaper rash cream on their faces. They were raving about the amazing effect it had on the skin. Some of them also claimed that this cream heals acne and prevents breakouts. I was a little sceptical, to tell you the truth, so I decided to do a little research. If it’s safe to use on babies skin, it is probably safe to use on your face, right? As it turns out, the active ingredient in diaper rash cream is Zinc oxide ! (A few weeks ago I wrote about the benefits of Zinc oxide , in an earlier post.) So, I decided to give it a try. I went to the nearest pharmacy and I chose a Zinc and Castor oil ointment. Castor oil provides a soothing and moisturising effect on the skin. Its antioxidant properties help to cleanse the skin and remove toxins. When used regularly, Castor oil helps flush out oil glands and may help alleviate adult acne. I use this cream in the evening
