works wonderfully, been having problems with my face skin being ashy or dry for past couple years and as a male . I'm at a total loss when it comes to skin care never really anything i thought of but age gets us all and if you're in a similar state this product does work. ive been using twice daily for past 2 weeks and have noticed a substantial lessening of the dry blotches,scaley skin that were persistent on my beard line. Inexpensive and it works. Read more

I've used this ointment on my hands, elbows, and lips through some dry winter weather. It creates a solid protective barrier that lasts through hand washing and daily activities. While it doesn't feel quite as heavy-duty as Aquaphor upon application, it still effectively soothes dry skin and prevents moisture loss. I found it particularly good for daytime use when I want protection without the heavy, greasy feel. Compared to Aquaphor, the Amazon version is slightly less thick and spreads more easily. While Aquaphor might have a slight edge for extremely dry, cracked areas that need maximum protection, the Basics ointment handles 90% of what most people need from a protective ointment. If you're budget-conscious or go through a lot of healing ointment, this is absolutely worth trying. The minor difference in thickness is easily outweighed by the significant savings. It's perfect for everyday dry skin maintenance, lip protection, and general first-aid needs. I'll continue using it as my primary ointment for most situations. TLDR: Pros: Β· Excellent value - it truly is about half the price of brand-name alternatives Β· Performs the core function of protecting and moisturizing dry skin very well Β· Sinks into the skin a bit faster than thicker ointments Β· Works great on dry patches, cuticles, and minor rough spots Β· The large tube is convenient and lasts a long time Cons: Β· Not quite as thick or viscous as Aquaphor Β· The texture feels slightly less rich upon application Read more

Love this. I use it to make my own vapor rub. Super moisturizing, holds on through washing and leaves even driest skin soft (especially the next day after use!). Will buy again and again! Read more

It is a tad thinner than Acquafor, and other vaseline type ointments. It is easier to use in cold temperature. Read more

Love this stuff!! Just ordered a second jar and one for my sister. I use every night as I have thin skin that cuts so easily. This helps with healing and scarring. It feels greasy but soaks in so not fret. Read more

The media could not be loaded. I don't find that this moistenens the skin as well as the neighboring brand. The texture is kind of gooey also. It's messy to use. I'd rather pay more money and get the name brand. Read more
