Aquaphor Healing Ointment 1.75 oz (50 g)

Comments about Aquaphor Healing Ointment, 1.75 oz:

I made the mistake of using my retin-a micro on my whole face instead of just my T-zone so it left me with really dry skin near my jaw lines and my chin. But when I started using this product, within 2 days, my skin was back to normal. You don't need to use a lot of because a little goes a long way. I only use it at night because it has the consistency of vaseline which is pretty thick and greasy. I started using it on my lips too and it works great.

I have lip licker's dermatitis and this is the only thing that helped out of probably a dozen other types of healing ointments and lip balms.
It also works well for burns.

This was great one winter when my hands were horribly chapped. It IS AWFULLY GREASY, so I suggest using it at bedtime with some gloves. It all washes off when you wash your hands, though, so you'll need to reapply. My sister also got this from her tattoo artist to put over her new tattoos, she said it helped a lot.

Note it's ointment, not lotion. So it's a bit greasy to use all over. I love it for elbows, heels, cuticles, knuckles. And I do use it on my hands at night or when I have 5-10 minutes for it to soak in.

I used it on a paper cut and to my surprise it really took the sting out and seemed to help it heal! bonus. It's nice to have something to use on cuts that don't seem at risk for infection that isn't antibiotic, I think antibiotics are overused but I would still put neosporin on small cuts to keep them from drying out. I'm happy to have this ointment instead.

Also helped my chapped lips, and didn't taste bad. This stuff is magic.

This is the best as a replacement for petoleum jelly and it is so much less greasy.

The only active ingredient is petrolatum. In comparisons, the $1.99 Vaseline works just as well as this Aquaphor and is no more greasy or heavy.

I started putting this on my lips before going to bed, lately my chapstick hasn't been really doing the job. Even when it wears off I still wake up with soft lips and I substitute this for gloss as well. Another great benefit is if you have cracked heels, you put this on your feet and sleep with socks on, your feet are smooth the next day. Great product, I also carry the small tubes in my purse as well to moisturize my lips and cuticles.

This product was originally recommended to me by my dermatologist when I did Acutane back in the day. Now 10 years later I always have some on hand. Now, yes, this is a greasy product, but that really can't be avoided if ultimate hydrating is your goal. I keep the larger tube in my bedside table to put on my hands and feet before bed. Amazing in the winter to heal horrible dry spot woes. I buy the smaller tubes for travel, work and in my car so I'm never without. I love that this is fragrance and irritant free, great for anyone and everyone!

I was receiving chemo treatment at NIH and an effect of my treatment caused my feet and legs to swell. Swell so badly they cracked and blisters formed on the outside of my skin. The blisters subsequently burst, leaving 2"-3" raw patches. The wound specialists used this product every day on these sores for about 2-3 weeks, and the raw patches healed completely. I will NEVER be without this product in my medicine cabinet.

I have sensitive, chapped lips and bought both the Aquaphor healing ointment and lip repair to try. Am very happy that I bought the healing ointment, it's long lasting and quite effective. Although it did not repair/heal the chapped lips (it's been almost 2 weeks but my chapped lips still feel very dry and sore if I don't put on the ointment after bathing/brushing teeth), but it creates a barrier and prevent them from getting worse.
