Aveeno has great line of bath and body products. They also carry baby products - their diaper rash cream being one of them.
Pros: I was so excited when I decided to try this product and realized it didn't have that potent smell that most diaper rash creams have. It has zinc oxide which helps protect and create a barrier for baby's skin. This is really important in treating and preventing diaper rash. It is a very creamy formula that goes on smoothly and wipes off nicely too, without leaving a residue. It is fragrance free and hypoallergenic making it optimal for sensitive skin. It also includes natural oat and willowherb essence which helps soothe on contact. I have been pleasantly surprised everytime I have used this product on how effective it is in getting rid of diaper rash.
Cons: Sometimes this will not get rid of diaper rash completely, but I have only noticed this when Rowan has a yeast type diaper rash. Yeast diaper rashes need to be treated a bit different anyway. Any other time, it works wonderful. It also tends to be a little more expensive than some brands, but a tube lasts a LONG time.
The Bottom Line: Great diaper rash cream, definitely recommended, the one we use.
Price: Around $5 for 3.7 ounces
Where to Buy: Target, Walmart

Any parent of a baby or toddler probably experiences diaper rash. They are horrible. A sad crying baby who doesn't understand why they have a sore bottom.
Pros: It goes on smoothly and wipes off easily as well. It is one of the cheaper diaper rash creams The original is probably the best as far as protection. It is made up of 40% zinc oxide which is the barrier that really helps seal out wetness & chafing. The original is a very thick cream and a little goes a long way.
Cons: The first time I put this in my son Chandler my husband asked why he smelled funny. I couldn't agree more. I think this diaper rash cream has a very potent smell which is not exactly pleasant. It might be the high concentration of zinc oxide - whatever it is, it stinks. It also didn't clear up his diaper rash all that quickly. Yes, I know that every child is different, but if a product doesn't work well and quickly, I won't use it again.
The Bottom Line: If you don't mind the scent, it is worth trying.
Price: $4.00-$6.00 depending on the retailer
Where to Buy: Any major retailer or grocery store. I've seen this all over the place
