I recently moved to the mountains from the beach and my knuckles started painfully cracking from the cold air. I tried regular Bath and Body Works lotions, body oil, Vaseline, and L'Occitane Shea Butter hand cream. Nothing touched the rough cracking of my skin. I have used this for three days and my hands have significantly healed. The ointment feels like Vaseline at first until the product is absorbed by the skin. The absorbency takes a little while, so avoid touching things to prevent transfer, but once absorbed it is a GREAT product!! Definitely going to be my winter staple from now on! Also, there is no scent for the sensitive skin people. Read more
This is a little unusual for an Aveeno Skin Relief product. I'm a constant user of some of the other products in this line. Initially I wasn't sold on this new one because it's a little "sticky". (It held some fabric lint on my skin from clothing I was wearing.) But on my small test abrasion it seemed to work wonders on speeding up healing. I'm now using it on a large surgical incision, and, yes, it's healing rapidly. Not greasy; glycerin is more on the tacky, thick end of balms. This protects and seals just as described. A winner for me. Read more
I really like this ointment, it’s not as greasy as most. It’s just what i need for my legs during this dry winter season at night and has become a regular part of my nighttime routine this winter. The smell of the ointment itself is mild and inoffensive. There is no noticeable smell on skin. My skin is much less itchy. Leaves my skin moisturized. Read more
It goes on a little tacky, but it doesn't stay that way for more than a minute or so...depending on how much you use. It dries to a soft smooth feeling. I have super dry and cracked hands. This has been a big help, and it works in my automatic soap/lotion dispenser Read more
i really like this stuff - its prety gooey when i put it on my dry hands, but that doesnt bother me, it dries pretty fast. doesnt have a scent and feels velvety on your skin Read more
As described. No scent, a little goes a long way and helps to not just protect the skin but heal from the time you put it on! Read more
I love this product! It’s super moisturizing non irritating and it renews the skin it simply GIVES IT LIFE!!! It is a thick consistency but it absorbs beautifully. I like to use this ointment on elbows, dry eyelids, hands and even lips. I will be repurchasing over and over. Read more
it’s effective on closed skin but stings on any kind of open skin like a rash or scaly hands! not greasy, worth the money for dry skin, i love that it’s glycerin based and not patrolatum. Read more
