  5. Subject diagnosed with mild-to-moderate diaper rash
  6. Subject with healthy immune systems
  7. Willing to be photographed at each visit (optional)
  8. Willing to abstain from use of any other topical diaper rash treatments (ointments, moisturizers, emollients, creams, and wipes) other than the assigned test product and skincare products that have been routinely used on the diaper area during the duration of the study

     1. Inflammation, active, or chronic infection in or near the treatment area
     2. Psoriasis, eczema, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, herpes zoster/herpes simplex, and acanthosis

  5. History of severe elastosis and/or excessive sun exposure that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could have affected the outcome of the study

  6. Planning on having surgeries and/or invasive medical procedures during the course of the study

  7. Treatment with chemotherapy, immunosuppressive agents, inhaled corticosteroids, immunomodulatory therapy (e.g., monoclonal antibodies or antiviral treatment for human immunodeficiency virus or hepatitis C)

  14. Other condition preventing the subject from entering the study in the Investigator's opinion, (e.g., subjects failing baseline assessments, subjects not likely to avoid other cosmetic treatments in the treatment area, subjects anticipated to be unavailable or incapable of understanding the study assessments or having unrealistic expectations of the treatment result).

  15. Study site personnel, close relatives of the study site personnel (e.g., parent/legal guardians, children, siblings, or spouse), or employees and close relatives of employees at the Sponsor company.
