The cream works by forming a light protective film on the skin’s surface. This film is created from a blend of oils, wax, lanolin and emollient ingredients that help seal in moisture and reduce water loss from the outer layer. Because the film is thin, it does not feel greasy, yet it blocks external stressors such as wind, dry indoor heating, friction from clothing or diapers, and sudden changes in temperature. The barrier also slows down the evaporation of sweat and natural skin oils, which keeps the skin from becoming tight after exposure to these conditions.
In practice the film can be applied to any area that is prone to dryness or irritation, including the elbows, knees, hands, cheeks, and the diaper area. It is especially useful when the child will be outdoors for extended periods or when the skin is repeatedly rubbed by clothing seams. The protective layer does not interfere with normal skin breathing, but it does give the skin a more resilient surface that can better withstand mechanical stress without cracking or flaking.
