Aquaphor Healing Ointment 1.75 oz — 

I don't always need extreme help with moisturizing but when I do need it Aquaphor is my skin hero. When I gave myself a chemical burn with nair, when I used proactive for the first time, windburn from commuting in San Francisco during winter... I always run to Aquaphor to set my skin straight. A few nights with this ointment on my face brings it back to normal fast. Although it does give me zits because it is heavy and greasy, It is worth it when my skin goes into dry skin worse-case scenario.

Yes. It would give you a break out. This is because it is an occlusive product, meaning it seals the skin. So if you have normal to oily skin that is having a temporary dryness issue you are sealing in the sebum, natural oils of the skin, and in some cases this can cause the break out. Plastic Surgeons and Dermatologists recommend this product post ablative lazer treatments. I don't use it on my face, but it keeps my pedicure looking amazing! Massage feet at night with it and wear socks to bed. Soft feet!

I was just told by my sons doctor, to try this on his heat rash that is on his face. Sounds like it works! great review!

This was recommended to me by a plastic surgeon! It's a great product.

This was one of my favorites from my son's diaper rash days. Glad to see you really getting involved in the site. Hope you're having fun. ~Carrie
