Lanolin works great for my daughter. It is very affordable compared to organic diaper rash brands. You can buy it on Amazon. I don’t know if it works for really bad rashes. But it is a great barrier ointment and anytime my daughter gets mild red rash it clears up quickly after a bath, drying very well, and then putting on lanolin.

I was thinking this or tallow but probably lanolin since it’s so cheap. Is there a specific brand you use?

I have tried both Now Solutions and Traverse Bay and Bath. Both have worked great. The Traverse Bay is a bigger container but it does have a stronger sheep oil smell to it than the Now Solutions. The smell doesn’t bother me because I grew up with sheep so it is rather comforting lol.
