What Experts Say

Zinc oxide forms a gentle protective layer over the skin that shields it from moisture and friction while it heals. It has mild soothing and astringent properties that calm irritation and minor skin damage.

Dermatologists and pharmacists often recommend zinc oxide preparations for nappy rash, chafing, minor wounds and irritated skin because they are gentle and well tolerated. It supports the skin's own repair rather than treating infection.

It is for external use on the skin and should be applied in a thin layer to clean skin. Deep, infected or non-healing wounds need medical attention rather than a barrier ointment alone.
