love this, it works

soothing and amazing!!

Hands-down, this is the best ointment ever. I get really bad skin allergies in the summertime and it makes me itch constantly. I’ve tried so many creams and ointments and this is the only one that works. It doesn’t dry out my skin and it helps me so much. I’m so happy I found this.

This has a menthol derivative of some sort in it, which really ought to be labeled, at least as "cooling relief." I'd been using Aquaphor to try to soothe it already, so this seemed perfect. Unfortunately, there are some places that you can't put menthol, no matter how problematic the laundry detergent, so to the store I go.

This works fantastic on wounds that have basically healed & scabbed over because once they start scabbing, they start itching... bad! The first time I tried regular Cortisone 10 ointment. BAD idea, it stung SOOOO bad!! I tried to work thru it, but finally had to wash it off. I & my Dr are fans of regular Aquaphor (& because it has less, more natural ingredients & seems more mild) I tried this Aquaphor Itch Relief Ointment. Voilà!!! It worked!! I put a big dab on a bandaid & covered the scab. Stopped the itching & will continue to help the wound heal by keeping it hydrated (which reduces scarring). Please note: I ONLY used this on the wound AFTER it started healing & scabbed over (it was a cat bite wound that I had cleaned throughly & kept sterilizing & using neosporin & bandaids for days. Then it finally healed without infection & scabbed over. THAT is when most wounds started itching terribly. If I hadn't tried Aquaphor Itch Relief, I would have ended up unintentionlly scratching the scab off, which could've caused it to get infected. Then I would've had to start all over with wound care instead of healing care. Aquaphor saved the day!! Kinda expensive, but worth it.

It works well; the itch-relieving effect is very noticeable.

Love this ointment. I need 3-4 around the house at all times. This is the only thing (along with SVR brand eye cream) that keeps eczema away from inner eye, near tear duct and eyelid. A must have if you have dry eyelids and dry crepey under eyes.

Use this for eczema and any little rash or irritation that comes up on my sensitive skin. It really helps to calm things down so that I stop scratching.
