 Goes on a little greasy but works like a charm!Feb 14, 2009
By Luna Lovegood
"Forever writing"
I purchased this ointment based on a recommendation by my son's pediatrician. My son suffers from severe eczema and nothing we were using on him was helping. We have to be very careful with what we use on his skin because anything can make his condition flare up. The pediatrician recommended we use the Aquaphor ointment on him at least two times a day, and especially after his bath. She also said it is important to apply it within minutes after patting him dry from his bath before the skin has a chance 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 nearly non-existent. It has worked so well on him that I started using it after I shower and it has made a tremendous difference in my skin. I don't have eczema but in the winter I end up with severe dry skin and this is the only moisturizer that made a difference.
The only downside to this ointment is that it goes on greasy and can take a few minutes for the greasiness to soak in. I prefer not to put on any good clothes right away in case some of the grease transfers to my clothes before it soaks into my skin. If there is a greasy spot or two on the clothing 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 though it goes on greasy I decided 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.

Heals dry hands - Nurses perspectiveNov 18, 2008
By J. J. Marino
"Geekasaurus Rex"
As a nurse I wash my hands several hundred times a day it seems. Even with the hospitals using moisturizing soaps my skin gets very dry. I bought this little jug and take it to work with me. It is amazing how well it can moisturize my VERY dry hands. In the winter I get cracks on the outside of my palms, without fail every 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 enough to be more manageable.
Several patients have this cream prescribed to them by their doctors its so good.
I highly recommend this cream to everyone that suffers from dry, cracked skin!
Thank you for reading my review.

same great aquaphorMar 28, 2010
By jjc
as far as i can tell, there is no difference between the "baby" and regular versions of aquaphor. their website does not mention any difference, and i have not observed any differences in the last month of use. but, for some reason, the baby version is often less expensive (this is also true at retailers - and check the baby aisle for the even less expensive 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 really 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 great lip balm!

Reluctantly, I'll admit this stuff worksFeb 28, 2012
By A. wooten
"Tea Drinker"
My baby has eczema. I tried every natural cream and ointment I that I read might be beneficial. Coconut oil, calendula, seaweed balm, olive oil, evening primrose oil, even emu oil. Yes, the oil of the emu, the giant bird. When my husband brought this stuff home I refused to use it because I didn't want to put petroleum on her skin. Well, turns out it is the only thing that clears it up. We go from red and blistery to soft and clear overnight.

 Even great for tattoos!Mar 28, 2011
By Jennifer Harrell
My hubby and I just got tattoos done a week ago and out artist suggested using this stuff. All the other tattoo products out there are just over priced so we thought we would give it a try. First off, I love the price and although I don't like the greasy feeling of this, I love how great it is helping my tattoos heal.
