^^ this. I wondered why you'd left it there. I can't stand advertising/sales pitches that prey on someone's fears - being a parent with a [hurt] child is bad enough[1].
I wasn't sure whether to laugh - I *almost* thought it was a spoof, and then not...
[1] I have issues with nappy rash to deal with- I'm told that it is not something to beat myself up about, but still... a miracle cure is something I'd consider.
Kamillosan is a lanolin and chamomile cream that makes my girls sigh with relief when I use it, which is gratifying. I've also used chamomile tea to wipe and lanolin salve to cream up, when I didn't have the readymade stuff.
I know what you mean about the preying on emotions thing though - we recently had a Pampers advert which said their nappies would help the baby sleep through the night, which made me livid.
