FAQs
Yes, zinc creams are often recommended for perioral dermatitis and facial eczema because zinc oxide forms a gentle, breathable barrier that helps calm irritation, reduce redness and protect sensitive skin from further flare-ups. It’s important to choose a cream with non-nano zinc, so it’s safe for use on broken or compromised skin. Wonder Zinc is a zinc barrier cream ideal for people managing perioral dermatitis, facial eczema or irritation around the mouth and nose, because it contains non-nano zinc and supports the skin barrier while visibly calming redness.
Standard barrier creams often rely on artificial ingredients like petroleum, mineral oil, silicones or synthetic waxes—substances that coat the skin but don’t actively support skin health. In contrast, zinc creams like Wonder Zinc use natural zinc oxide to create a breathable barrier that helps calm and protect rash-prone, sensitive skin. Wonder Zinc goes further with non-nano zinc, provitamin B5 and organic seaweed extract to visibly calm redness and support barrier repair—without fragrance, fillers or harsh additives. It’s not just a barrier cream—it’s clean beauty protection for sensitive skin.
Zinc cream forms a gentle, breathable barrier on the skin’s surface, helping to shield sensitive areas from external irritants. This protective layer helps to soothe irritation and support the skin’s natural recovery process. It’s commonly used to care for nappy rash, itchy or rash-prone skin and areas affected by general scratches or redness. Zinc creams are especially effective when zinc oxide is combined with dexpanthenol (provitamin B5), as this pairing helps support barrier repair and maintain skin hydration. When choosing a zinc cream, it’s important to check whether it contains nano or non-nano zinc oxide. Nano zinc particles are not recommended for use on broken skin, as they may penetrate too deeply and could cause irritation. That’s why Wonder Zinc uses non-nano zinc oxide combined with provitamin B5 — it's safe, effective and suitable for sensitive skin of all ages. Reference: Hebert AA. A new therapeutic horizon in diaper dermatitis: Novel agents with novel action. Int J Womens Dermatol. 2021 Feb 16;7(4):466-470.
Yes, zinc creams are commonly used to help soothe itchy skin and reduce the discomfort associated with skin rashes. Zinc oxide forms a gentle, breathable barrier that protects the skin from external irritants that can aggravate symptoms. This makes it a popular choice for managing nappy rash, facial irritation, mild genital rashes and itchy, rash-prone skin. Wonder Zinc is especially useful for itchiness caused by grass seed exposure, salty water or skin irritation after sitting on the lawn or swimming in the ocean. It can even be applied to mosquito bites, so it’s a great addition to your camping kit, beach bag, school backpack or first aid kit. Reference: Gupta M, Mahajan VK, Mehta KS, Chauhan PS. Zinc therapy in dermatology: a review. Dermatol Res Pract. 2014.
Not all zinc creams are created equal. Some may contain pore-clogging ingredients like heavy oils, silicones or fragrances (parfum), which are hormone-disruptors that can be found in most skincare products! Wonder Zinc is different. It’s formulated to be non-comedogenic, lightweight and free from silicones, fragrance and other hormone-disruptors, making it suitable even for sensitive or acne-prone skin. In fact, Wonder Zinc is good for pores—its non-nano zinc oxide and pore-minimising ingredients including elderberry, help to soothe skin and visibly minimise the appearance of pores over time, promoting a smoother, clearer complexion.

"Wonder Zinc is the quiet achiever in my skincare tool kit. It doesn't flare up my skin like so many other products, and I see visible results over time - red scaly patches gradually disappear and the skin becomes smooth and nourished, odd lumps and bumps on my skin are smoothed away. It's not quick, but it really works for me!"
"I've had eczema on my hands for 20+ years. I've use a lot of products in that time, and none of them do what this does. It seems to completely reset the skin bar; my skin just FEELS different after using it. And a little goes a long way. Will definitely reorder!"
"This product is so helpful when I need it. I've found a little goes a long way for sure!"
"I have a most sensitive body since year 1 and skinfriend is my number one relief after so, so many years of trial and error and I have been on the path of alternative/natural health for some 45 years. I have experienced only positive, relieving results whether it is using wonderzinc, eczemafriend or 24-hour rescue (each for different issues). These products in every way are superb even down to the tubes that contain the solutions. It isn’t at all easy to find remedies for we celiacs, gluten intolerant, essential oil allergic, etc. , yet Skin Friend Australia has created these truly amazing products with complete understanding of our needs. I cannot be more grateful to have the ability to purchase and first of all to have found these products; we need to spread by word so fewer suffer. Thank you so very much My Skin Friends of Australia who know what we need and have made this all possible."
"I wouldn't be without Wonder Zinc, now my eczema is better I just use it every night before bed and love its healing magic!"

"A miracle worker ✨️"
"My daughter(16)'s been suffering with severe eczema since 4 years old has tried a lots of natural eczema creams from homemade to the best&most expensive on the market but they never worked, did not make any difference& most of them stunk her, until she's tried WONDER ZINC. She is absolutely in love with this cream, not only because it doesn't stink her, it's super smooth, not too greasy but because it really helps not to itch&recovers her damaged skin much faster, is super comforting. She's been using it twice a day religiously(never happened before, she is fed up with all the creams)and this only proofs that after 12 years of struggles, she's finally find her REMEDY CREAM. Thank you She also did the eczema diet, which helped her and takes AM&PM every day. No steroids for past 8years and she will never touch steroids again. Eczema can be controlled with diet and natural resources and i must say big thank you to you SKIN FRIENDs could not do it without your wonderful products."
"I have had skin lesions all over my body that have struggled to close up for months. My corneotherapist recommended Wonderzinc to me and through wonderzinc and bandaging, my skin has finally been able to heal over. I have repurchased this several times as it is the only thing that have seemed to help. I highly recommend this product."
"We ordered the Wonder Zinc for my wife and it is really wonderful. Her skin feels great everytime she uses it. She loves it and she is going to order it again."
Wonder Zinc is just that. If it weren't for Wonder Zinc there have been several times where I believe my flare ups would have resulted in a course of antibiotics.
Wonder Zinc is wonderful, I have chronic idiopathic urticaria which is itchy in the extreme and I couldn't survive without it, particularly at night. Well done Karen!
Nothing has been an overnight miracle (nothing is with TSW), but all I can say is I have not touched the hydrocortisone cream since I began using Wonder Zinc. I am beyond amazed at how much this product has helped ease the redness and heal my skin. Wonder Zinc has also helped dry out the dishydrotic eczema blisters I've dealt with for so long as well. If you need relief, try this product.
This stuff is magic. No it won't 'cure' the underlying issue. Diet has to be included, but this has helped tremendously in an area.... Where you don't want eczema. Super gentle. I love it. For once in 3 years I'm not dying to scratch anymore.
