Healing Ointment

I have really bad itchy eczema dry skin in the winter. For the past year or so it continued into the summer, so I have been dealing with this frustrating issue for quite a while. Sometimes it gets so bad I end up scratching my skin until it starts bleeding and I have been desperate for an affordable solution that doesn't involve doctor's appointments to fix. I've tried lotion after lotion after lotion. From CeraVe Intense Moisturizing lotion to Amlactin Intensive Healing lotion. Nothing had been working. After discovering that ointments are much better for constant skin irritation than your standard lotions, I bought this and I am so thankful that I did. For the first time ever, I have been able to see immediate improvement in my skin when I apply this at night. The itching is soothed so quickly after applying, and it helps me sleep instead of being kept up all night from scratching. It is so nice to wake up in the morning with little to no itching or burning. I would need to apply lotions 24/7 to even see a fraction of the results I see from this in just two nights. I am bad at consistent use of almost anything but when I go too long without using this it is very obvious which makes keeping up with consistent use so easy. Sometimes I even apply this to my lips at night before sleeping and it works so well for incredibly chapped winter lips if I do that for a couple nights. It may be a little sticky and the consistency is a little thick in comparison to lotion, but the results are well beyond worth it for me. I would recommend this to absolutely anyone with harsh painful itchy skin. It has been a miracle worker for me all winter long. The tub lasts quite a long while and a little goes a long way, so the size is perfect. And it doesn't have any noticeable scents or fragrances which makes it even more compatible for sensitive skin and people with sensitive noses which is a huge plus.

I had a sample size of CeraVe Healing Ointment for a year now. Have tried to find a small size to carry with me. Amazon came to the rescue! 3 oz and I can carry it easily in my purse. Comes in a squeezable tube. The product works fantastically on my hands and feet. I was getting those weird little cuts and snags by my finger tips. Two nights of using the ointment, and the problems are soft and healing - no more snagging or cringing when washing my hands. Feet, let’s just say they are finally soft again. There are several size options, as mentioned I went with the 3 oz. There is not scent to the ointment at all. Goes on smoothly, isn’t greasy, and absorbs well.

My dermatologist turned me on to this and I couldn't be happier with the results! It covers, protects & keeps the blisters/scrapes moisturized while they heal. Great value for the money. I apply it gently with a q-tip or wooden "spoon" twice a day with no irritation nor any inflamation. Fragrance free, easily absorbed (not greasy!) and it helps minimize the scarring. Good product!

This stuff is truly the best ointment on the market. i used to use the regular brand thats just plain ol' petroleum jelly, and while i loved what it did for my face, this is leagues better. There's the regular petrol in it, but there's also ceramides and all kinds of goodies the in there with it. It's the PERFECT nighttime slug step. The consistency is like regular vaseline but i swear this is a big thicker coming out the package, but it melts into & over your skin like a dream. The size is pretty decent for the price too. I'll be using this for the foreseeable future. if you're using harsh retinoids, tret, or just have sensitive dry skin - use this as your last step before bed. It's a lifesaver. :0 It can also be used on your feet, elbows, lips, etc. anywhere your skin is dry

So the reason for the four stars and not five is the following. The description for this product states this does not leave a greasy feel or film. I have to disagree as it does leave a bit of a greasy film and feel. A little goes a very long way so start small and add more if you require it. This is what I do as I use this only for my hands due to sever dry hands from constant washing using a medicated hand wash for my skin condition that is only on my hands. This product works extremely good and is a life saver for my dry hand condition giving me hands that are soft again and do not feel like dry leather. I just started using this product on the date of this review as this is when I received it. I like it so much that I purchased the larger 12oz container for home and a 9oz container for taking with me when I'm out of the house to keep my hands feeling and looking their best. I do highly recommend this healing ointment as it does what is says with the exception of the greasy feel and film that it does leave on your skin. It is not a heavy amount but that will also depend on how much you use. I use a very light amount just enough to provide what I need for protect and hydrate my skin.

My review is based on my jar purchased from 2022 that still works very well. I’ve been having some dryness on my feet and toes and recently decided to open up a jar purchased back in 2022. Ointment is highly moisturizing and my feet and toes are no longer dry and my skin is smooth to the touch. Also works great on my dry elbows. That being said. I am extremely disappointed that CeraVe changed their formula. I added a pic of ingredients of CeraVe’s “improved formula” against the label of my 2022 jar of ointment. As you can see they increased the petroleum percentage, added glycerin, less ceramides, less tocopherol, less panthenol. Just compare both ointment labels and you will see the difference on formulas. I hope CeraVe reads this and goes back to their original formula.

I have been using CeraVe for over 10 years and still love their products! This healing ointment is great for dry skin and doesn’t sting cracked skin. It keeps you moisturized for hours without having a greasy feel. You might look shiny, but not greasy in my experience. Also the new formula is great, it looks even less shiny than my last tube. My last tube lasted my over a year with daily use, so I know this one will last me a while

Love this product. I use this for packing in my travel bag to ensure my hands and feet stay moisturized. Word of advice - do not use a lot of using on hands for during the day usage. It is very greasy. Hand and feet stay moisturized for a few days. It absorbs in the skin well. Average value for your money.

La crema es muy buena. El paquete ha llegado pronto, muy bien envuelto y con cuidado desde una farmacia de Villanueva de la Serena, la farmacia El Cumbreño. Muy buen servicio.

Le produit est très epais mais facile à dissoudre entre les mains avant de l appliquer

I read a lot about this salve online before I purchase it and I was a bit skeptical because everyone seemed to rave about it but I have to agree with the consensus, it is great. You can basically put it on anything minor skin related and it soothes and heals. I have tried other balms but I like this one better because it seems very gentle but also powerful. Highly recommend!

Ottimo prodotto per pelle molto secca o atopica Essendo un unguento ne bastano piccole quantità sulle zone da trattare

This ointment is really a miracle for itchy skin! I been using benzoyl peroxide cleanser and I follow up with my A ret cream after skin care which caused my skin to be extremely dry and itchy at night time, it’s really working amazingly without clogging my pores or breaking out my skin!
