Superior Moisture Absorption and Anti-Friction Protection
Cussons Baby Powder is a time-tested household favorite designed to provide a gentle layer of protection against diaper rash and sweat irritation. Because an infant's skin is thin and highly delicate, moisture easily accumulates in chubby leg creases, neck folds, and underarms. This trapped dampness can quickly turn into painful chafing or skin irritation if left unmanaged.
This 100g Mild & Gentle Powder addresses this by using a purified mineral base that immediately wicks away moisture from the skin's surface. What makes Cussons unique is its dual-action care: while the ultra-fine powder keeps skin dry, its infusion of chamomile acts as a natural anti-inflammatory to calm mild redness. Meanwhile, milk proteins help maintain a smooth, conditioned skin barrier, ensuring your baby stays smiling, dry, and relaxed throughout the day.

Procedural Application Guide
To protect your infant's respiratory health, baby powder must always be applied indirectly. Follow these steps to ensure a completely safe, dust-free application.
- Step Away from the Baby's Face: Distance the Bottle. Ensure your baby is positioned a safe distance away. Never shake the powder container directly onto the baby's skin or anywhere near their nose and mouth.
- Shake Powder into Your Own Hand: Controlled Dispensing. Twist the shaker cap open. Shake a small, controlled amount of powder directly into the palm of your own hand, keeping your hand positioned down and away from the infant.
- Rub Your Palms Together: Friction Reduction. Gently rub your hands together close to your body to distribute the powder evenly across your palms and minimize airborne dust clouds.
- Pat Softly Onto Cleansed Skin: Gentle Smooth. Smooth the powder gently onto your baby's clean, completely dry skin folds and diaper area. Pay close attention to areas prone to sweat and friction.
- Twist the Cap Tightly Closed: Secure the Seal. Immediately twist the bottle cap firmly into the locked position to avoid accidental spills or child access, and store the bottle out of reach.
Critical Storage & Safety Guidelines
Inhalation Warning: Keep powder entirely away from children’s noses and mouths. Inhaling baby powder can cause respiratory distress or breathing difficulties in infants. Avoid generating large airborne dust clouds during use.
- Wound Avoidance: Do not apply baby powder over severely broken, weeping, or bleeding skin. For infected diaper rashes or open blisters, discontinue use and consult your pediatrician.
- Moisture Shielding: Store the bottle in a cool, dry cupboard. Ensure the shaker cap remains tightly shut when not in use to prevent ambient bathroom steam from clumping the powder inside.
- External Only: This product is intended strictly for topical cosmetic use on external skin surfaces. Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion or inhalation.
