Public service announcement: after a six month hiatus, yellow metanium appears to be on sale again.

Parents of sensitive bottomed babies rejoice!

At last, some news to celebrate! Where have you seen it OP?

ThejoyofNC · 28/05/2025 18:38

That'll upset the people selling it for £50 a tube.

Omg just in time for my new baby :) I did actually find a half a tube that is 7 years old in my cupboard the other day.

I thought they completely discontinued it because they couldn't keep up with the quality of the product without severely hiking up prices ?

dontcomeatme · 28/05/2025 18:58

According to Google its still discontinued?

They have sneakily changed the packaging on the barrier cream from purple to yellow. It’s not the excellent yellow cream though.

Is it definitely the original one cos as the poster above said, they changed the purple one to yellow. Sneaky bastards. If it is then great news, I’ve been using my last tube sparingly I’ve got two still in nappies!

That might be correct, but I wouldn't trust AI to be up to date.

My top tip is that if you swear in the question, it won't give an AI answer.

It's just new packaging, there's even a warning that comes with it on the Boots website that states it isn't the original yellow nappy balm.

They had to stop selling it because the safety of one of the ingredients is being called into question and potentially banned.

They were selling both a purple one, and a yellow one

I love this 😅
My Google history from now on - "is the f#cking yellow metanium discontinued or not"

Just wanted to say, there is a new nappy spray out by Ashton and Parsons - it’s called soothing nappy spray. It has the same ingredients as Metanium, it is unbelievable!! It’s a spray so don’t have to wipe it, it’s white so nothing gets ruined. Dare I say, it cleared up my daughter’s rash faster than Metanium did?? So good! I got it from Tesco.
