Heals arid hands – Nurses perspective
By J. J. Marino
As a nurse I wash my hands assorted hundred times a day it seems. Even with the hospitals using moisturizing soaps my skin gets very dry. I purchased this little jug and take it to work with me. It is astounding how well it may moisturize my VERY arid hands. In the winter I get cracks on the outside of my palms, without fail each year. I take this cream and let it sit on the crack for as long as I can. By the next day or so the crack has healed sufficient to be more manageable.

Several persons who requires medical care have this cream prescribed to them by their doctors it is so good.

I highly commend this cream to every one that suffers from dry, cracked skin!

Thank you for reading my review.

Goes on a little greasy but works like a charm!
By Lisa A. Frank
I purchased this ointment based on a recommendation by my son’s pediatrician. My son suffers from severe eczema and not one thing we were using on him was helping. We have to be very careful with what we use on his skin because anything may make his condition flare up. The pediatrician commended we use the Aquaphor ointment on him at least two times a day, and peculiarly after his bath. She likewise said it is essential to utilise it within minutes after patting him arid from his bath before the skin has a prospect to ‘dry out’.

This is the only product that has helped his skin condition. If we use it on him twice a day his eczema is almost non-existent. It has worked so well on him that I started using it after I shower and it has made a vast divergence in my skin. I don’t have eczema but in the winter I end up with severe arid skin and this is the only moisturizer that made a difference.

The only downside to this ointment is that it goes on greasy and may take a few minutes for the greasiness to soak in. I prefer not to put on any good clothes right away in case a good deal of of the grease transfers to my clothes before it soaks into my skin. If there is a greasy spot or two on the costume then using powder on the spots helps to get it out (let the powder sit on the greasy spot for a few minutes or more so it soaks up the oils, then brush the powder away). Even even though it goes on greasy I decisive to give it 5 stars because it is an ‘ointment’ rather than a ‘moisturizer,’ and it does what it is supposed to better than any other product we have tried.

same outstanding aquaphor
By jjc
as far as i may tell, there is no divergence among the “baby” and regular versions of aquaphor. their internetlocation does not mention any difference, and i have not observed any divergences in the last month of use. but, for a great deal of reason, the baby version is often less pricey (this is also unfeigned at merchants who sells goods at retail – and check the baby aisle for the even less costly target brand). i have been using aquaphor, mixed with Eucerin Lotion, Intensive Repair, 16.9-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2), twice a day on my daughter for the last two years, and it has actually helped to keep her eczema at bay. i find it too greasy to use alone, but it is great mixed with another lotion. also makes a outstanding lip balm!
