Directions for Use

Follow these steps to ensure safe and effective application:

  1. Cleanse: Ensure your baby’s skin is thoroughly clean and completely dry after a bath or a diaper change.
  2. Dispense: Sprinkle a small amount of the powder directly onto your own hands, away from your baby’s face.
  3. Apply: Gently rub the powder onto your baby’s skin, focusing on areas prone to sweating, such as the neck, armpits, chest, and diaper area.
  4. Frequency: Use 1 to 2 times daily during summer or high-humidity conditions, or as directed by your paediatrician.

 

Pro Tip: Never sprinkle powder directly onto your baby’s body to prevent accidental inhalation of fine particles.

 

Age-Specific Advisory: Safe for infants over 3 months of age. For newborns, consult your paediatrician before introducing topical powders.

 

Safety Information

  • Inhalation Risk: Keep the powder away from the baby’s nose, mouth, and face to avoid accidental inhalation, which can cause breathing issues.
  • External Use Only: Strictly for topical application. Do not ingest or apply to open, bleeding, or weeping wounds.
  • Allergy Warning: Discontinue use immediately if you notice increased redness, hives, or signs of an allergic reaction, and consult a physician.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent moisture contamination.
  • Keep Out of Reach of Children: Store securely so toddlers and children cannot access or play with the shaker bottle.
  • Consult a Physician if: The prickly heat rash does not improve after 3–4 days of use, or if the rash begins to ooze or blister.
