Great for my baby's eczema
Hi, I have used this cream on dry skin that is very damaged and prone to many different symptoms of atopic skin, and I have to say it works wonders. It really does create a nice shied barrier over the skin to help the skin repair itself, so to find a cream that is natural and this effective, I have to give it a 10/10.
I've been using Zinc and calendula cream for a long time. It is the only cream I found that helps me with my eczema and acne issues. I recently got a rough acne outbreak and it took the skin to get better after one day of using Zinc and calendula cream. It really ia amazing and worth every penny. In combination with the Beauty balm to clean the skin it's unprecedental
Saw this recommended on Tik Tok for Perioral Dermatitis. Have been using for a week and can already see a huge improvement. Love that its all natural and UK based, will definitely purchase more products in the future.
This product has been a life saver for my skin in dealing with perioral dermatitis. It’s helped hydrate my skin and repair my skin barrier. I live in the US and it’s worth the shipping cost!
I have been using Lyonsleaf for a long time and each product works so well for different alignments. The Zinc and Calendula cream works perfectly for use as a nappy cream. Knowing it’s natural I haven’t felt the need to swap and try other brands as this does the job wonderfully. A little goes a long way so a pot lasts a long time. I highly recommend. The cream has a lovely consistency, prevents irritation and is great value for money. I will continue to order😊
I regularly use this cream on my sensitive skin and would definitely recommend it to anyone with any sensitive skin or allergy issues. Always found it to be great for my skin and mix it with the calendula and marshmallow cream in winter to create a mix suitable for the colder weather / drier skin conditions. Love all the Lyonsleaf products I've tried.
Really lovely product, it sits well on the skin and is starting to make a difference to my dermatitis.
Helpful when first parcel went missing. Good people
This is a must have for any home, amazing at calming inflammation and soothing skin while keeping it protected. Highly recommended!
I love this product! My irratated skin is soothed and heals quickly thanks to this cream!
This is a great product for treating small rashes, or flare up's to anywhere on the body, Its safe and very effective. I f you skin is very dry like mine , layer up with the beauty balm or calendula cream.
My dermatologist diagnosed me with Inverse Psoriasis. I had an itchy, scaly rash on all of the folders of my body. I tried using an emollient cream, but it was only slightly helpful. I found a small jar of Lyonsleaf Zinc and Calendula Cream in my drawer and kept rubbing it neat into my sore skin. It made such a difference that in a week my skin was so much better that my dermatologist had problems finding a good site for a biopsy. I then decided to get this bigger jar for ongoing use. It's a real marvel.
I have tried so many different products for POD over the last couple of years but this is the only thing that has helped! even in a couple of uses the spots around my mouth/chin disappeared and now I just have a little redness where the spots were but it is fading with use of the cream. Brilliant cream at a fantastic price. the jar will last for ages as a tiny bit of the cream goes a long way.
Amazing a cream that actually works 100%
I’m really pleased with this cream and definitely notice a difference in the perorial dermatitis.
I’m so disappointed :( so many people said this was the best product for perioral/periorificial dermatitis, but I tried it for a few days and all I found was that it caked onto my skin in a way that made it so I had to rub it off repeatedly, which only irritated my skin more. It’s thicker than I had imagined and left my skin white from the zinc. I’m really so confused how this was helpful for other people and wish it had been the miracle product that many other people said it was!! Like, it doesn’t even soak into the skin? Just sits on top like a diaper rash cream would and then it’s really hard to wash off.
Hi Natalie,
We have recently written more detailed advice about using this product and I think you might find it useful. I'm so sorry it wasn't available when you purchased. We do advise using it very sparingly, especially for skin prone to perioral dermatitis, so it should barely show white and it's not designed to be a wash off product (zinc oxide is very water repellant) Our products are all water free so you only need a tiny amount. I'm also sorry for the late reply to this review, It came in during school holidays when I was off, I'm just reviewing feedback now and only just came across it. There is lots of new advice on the product page and on our knowledge is power page, please have a look or get in touch if you prefer a refund. Best wishes Vicky Lyons
Really effective for managing acne, nappy rash and blisters. I would highly recommend this product
My toddler suffers from Exczma. I’ve tried so many herbal creams, this one has been the best one yet! There’s been a major shift and her skin is slowly but surely getting better. She still has a scratch for the first 20-30 mins after putting it on but then doesn’t really scratch after that. It’s helped with her active redness and her dark patches. It’s definitely been helpful having this cream. I’d reccomend it
Very soothing and kind for sore places.
Absolutely amazing! I bought the small tin to try and I'm already wanting more!
I've had a long standing skin condition linked to pcos plus a new one Ive had for 12 months. Both on my face and both sore Nd painful leave horrible red angry patches that bleed and scar.
Not only has using this cream helped to clear up the existing lesions which wouldn't shift, knocks new ones on the head immediately! It's been a life changer as I was so self conscious about my skin and the GP didn't even know what the issue was.
Well in 14 days my face has gone from pepperoni pizza to only two of the most stubborn lesions and they are almost gone too.
I am definitely buying a bigger one!
This is my favourite cream and I use it for everything! It saved my children from scarring after horrendous chicken pox and they generally hate any kind of cream being applied, but will happily use ‘the lion ones’. I don’t like any fragranced product, so this is ideal. The pots are petite, but a little goes a long way and they last for ages. I recommend it to everyone!
Great for the skin
Can’t fault this company at all. Speedy dispatch, products are amazing, natural and work wonders. Highly recommend
What a generous company! Not many give such a generous sample size to try.
Lovely product.

FAQs
How Quickly do you despatch?
We despatch orders Monday to Friday and we always dispatch the same working day (if ordered before 12 noon) or the following working day.
Will my skin react to Lyonsleaf Products
Our products are all 100% natural and free from all artificial chemicals. Because they are water free we can even avoid antimicrobial preservatives and emulsifiers. For this reason it is very unusual for anyone to react to our products at all. However some people are sensitive to essential oils, so if you are super-sensitive please choose unfragranced product options. Even less common, it is possible to be allergic to calendula and other herbs, so it is always important to do a patch test. In the unlikely event that you do have an adverse reaction, you can return your product for a full refund. We also sell samples of most products so you can try before you invest in a big pot.
Why is the pot so small?
Lyonsleaf products are water free and contain only the finest, plant oils, butters natural waxes and mineral ingredients. Most high Street products are up to 80% water, which means you need to apply them much more liberally and frequently. You will find you only need to use Lyonsleaf products very sparingly to achive good hydration that lasts all day. Products that are rich in soothing herbs can be used more frequently to achieve the best calming effect, but they still only need to be used sparingly. So these little pots go a long way, using less packaging and less transportation resources.
Are Lyonsleaf products vegan?
Much of the Lyonsleaf range is vegan, but we do use organic beeswax in some products. When it came to choosing a suitable wax, we decided it would be better for the environment to choose a farming method that promotes pollinators rather than a vegetable mono-crop that causes deforestation and loss of habitat. We only use organic beeswax as organic farming standards require farmers to have high welfare standards for Bees.
