More About Timelines

Timelines are estimates, based on our averages and couriers’ commitments. We always aim to get your order to you quicker than this — but they’re not a guarantee. Wherever your order is in the journey, we’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

Returns Made Easy

Unfortunately, we can’t accept returns on this product once it’s been opened. This is usually because:

You can send it back yourself, or we can arrange a courier and give you an upfront quote — direct from the courier. If your return is for any other reason, it’s free.

Goes great with ...

  • Triple-action care: Designed to help prevent nappy rash while soothing existing redness and supporting the skin's barrier.
  • Zinc oxide barrier: Forms a breathable protective layer against irritants like urine, stool and nappy friction.
  • Avocado Perseose®: Helps hydrate and reinforce the skin's natural defences.
  • Fragrance-free & hypoallergenic: Formulated to reduce the risk of reactions, making it suited to sensitive skin.
  • Gentle from birth: Suitable for use at every nappy change from birth onwards (babies out of NICU).
  • 98% natural origin: Free from parabens, phthalates and phenoxyethanol.
  • Easy on, easy off: A thick, long-lasting texture that spreads and wipes away without a heavy residue.
  • Eco-conscious choice: Biodegradable formula in recyclable packaging, available in 50 ml and 100 ml.

The Mustela Vitamin Barrier Cream is a nappy-area barrier cream designed to protect, soothe and support your baby's delicate skin at every change. Formulated with zinc oxide and Avocado Perseose®, it forms a protective yet breathable layer over clean, dry skin — a practical everyday bum cream you can reach for from birth (for babies out of NICU) right through the nappy stage.

Mustela describes this as a triple-action formula: it is designed to help prevent nappy rash, soothe existing redness and discomfort, and support the skin's barrier. With 98% ingredients of natural origin and a fragrance-free base, it's made to be gentle enough for use at every nappy change, while the thick, long-lasting texture stays where you put it. It comes in 50 ml and 100 ml sizes.

How it works

  • Protective barrier: Zinc oxide forms a breathable layer that helps shield the skin from external irritants such as urine, stool and friction from the nappy.
  • Soothing action: Oxeoline of Alcacea and Sunflower Oil Distillate work to calm existing redness and discomfort — Mustela notes the formula is clinically proven to soothe the nappy area and relieve irritation and redness from the very first use.
  • Barrier support: Vitamin F (essential lipids) and Avocado Perseose® help reinforce the skin's natural defences and support repair.

Key Ingredients

Zinc Oxide What it does: Forms a protective, breathable barrier over the skin.
Why it works: It has protective and anti-enzymatic properties that help limit contact between the skin and nappy-area irritants.
Avocado Perseose® What it does: Helps protect and hydrate the skin barrier.
Why it works: It reinforces the skin's natural defences and helps preserve its cellular richness.
Sunflower Oil Distillate What it does: Provides essential lipids for the skin.
Why it works: These lipids help build the skin barrier and promote its repair.
Oxeoline of Alcacea What it does: Soothes the skin.
Why it works: Its calming properties help settle redness and discomfort in the nappy area.

How to Use

  1. Change wet and dirty nappies promptly.
  2. Cleanse the nappy area and allow it to dry.
  3. At each nappy change, apply a thick layer to clean, dry skin, paying extra attention to red or irritated areas.

Use daily to help maintain skin comfort. The thick formula is designed to be easy to apply and remove, and the flip-top cap allows for one-handed application during changes.
