Aquaphor Healing Ointment — 

I have dry skin "spots," like many others, you know,  those troublesome skin spots like elbows and heals.  Using Aquaphor Healing Ointment regularly means that I can heal my skin quickly and easily and without a prescription. 

The active ingredient in Aquaphor Healing Ointment is Petrolatum. The other ingredients used to make Aquaphor include Mineral Oil, Ceresin, Lanolin Alcohol, Panthenol, Glycerin, and Bisabolol. Who knew it was Vaseline with a boost? 

Aquaphor Healing Ointment is doctor recommended for both adults and children.  My son also suffers from dry skin and this was the first thing recommended. Many parents I know use it to help their children relieve the painful itch of ezcema. 

The manufacturer recommends cleaning and drying skin before applying. For dry heels try putting it on at night and wearing socks to bed to protect your linens. It may feel weird to apply because it is so thick and creamy, again like Vaseline, but it has far more healing properties.  I wouldn't suggest putting on your hands though and then trying to drive! 

Aquaphor Healing Ointment makes it easy and quick to heal your dry skin - and the website was offering free samples check it out and try it before you buy it.

Too funny, don't moisturize and drive.

I've used this for dry patches and it really does work well. I also know someone who uses it for her daughter's ezcema.

We used to use this a lot for some of our kids' diaper rashes and it works for the little boo boos that don't need Neosporin around our house.

I bought this for my husband but he says it's too greasy. I guess I'll be using it!
