More detailsAn essential item in any maternity bag, liniment is making a big comeback—so much so that it now takes pride of place on almost every changing table. But what exactly is this product used for, and what are its benefits?
Oleo-calcareous liniment is a very simple mixture made of lime water and olive oil. Pale yellow in color, this natural product has been used for generations. Traditionally used to treat skin burns, it is now primarily used to treat diaper rash in infants.
Since it doesn’t require rinsing, the oil-lime liniment allows you to bathe your baby without a water source. With its oily texture, it easily removes stool residue. And thanks to its alkaline pH (9), the liniment actively neutralizes the acidity of urine, which can irritate a baby’s sensitive skin. It is therefore very effective at soothing redness and preventing the dreaded diaper rash. It also leaves a thin protective layer on the skin thanks to the olive oil.
Oleo-calcareous liniment is an emulsion composed of equal parts lime water and vegetable oil, often olive oil. This simple, natural formulation makes it gentle on even the most sensitive skin, particularly that of infants. With a creamy, oily texture, it is distinguished by its pale yellow color and alkaline pH (9), which is ideal for neutralizing the acidity of urine.
Traditionally used to treat burns and skin irritations, liniment is now primarily used for baby diaper care. Its cleansing and soothing properties make it a valuable ally against irritation and diaper rash.
Oleo-calcareous liniment is a two-phase mixture. Regardless of how you plan to use it, always start by shaking the bottle well to ensure the liquid is thoroughly mixed.

A liniment needs no more than three ingredients: lime water, olive oil, and moisturizing glycerin.
