Aquaphor Ointment

Spending a lot of time on a bike can lead to painful chafing from the wrong saddle or bibs. Aquaphor is a useful product for me. Before a long ride, applying a layer of Aquaphor to areas prone to chafing is helpful. Because it is thick, a small amount is sufficient. It creates a protective barrier that reduces friction for hours. This results in a more comfortable ride with less skin irritation. Aquaphor can also treat already irritated areas. Applying a thin layer after showering can make a noticeable difference by the next morning. It soothes and promotes faster healing than other balms and creams. While some sources suggest that petroleum-based products may damage the chamois fabric in shorts over time, applying it directly to the skin has shown no issues for me. I’m also using chamois cream. The fact that it is fragrance-free and for sensitive skin is an added benefit. Aquaphor is a cost-effective, multi-purpose ointment that works better than high-priced specialty products. Looking at the ingredient list, it appears to be the same formula as the adult variant.

As a mom, I’ve tried a dozen products for my baby’s sensitive skin, and Aquaphor Healing Ointment is by far the most effective — especially for pacifier rash and diaper rash.My baby developed redness and irritation around his mouth from constant pacifier use, and within one day of applying Aquaphor, I noticed a huge improvement. It creates a protective barrier without being too thick or sticky, and I love that it’s fragrance-free and safe for delicate skin.For diaper rash, it's become our go-to. I apply a thin layer at each diaper change, and it helps prevent and soothe irritation — even during teething or after a bad reaction to a new brand of wipes.It spreads easily, wipes off without scrubbing, and doesn’t cause any discomfort when applied. I also love that one tub lasts forever, since you only need a small amount.Highly recommend for all parents — it's gentle, reliable, and a must-have for your diaper bag or nursery.

Aquaphor Baby Healing Ointment is hands-down one of the best baby care products I’ve used. My little one has very sensitive skin, and this cream works wonders for everything—from diaper rash to dry patches and even little scrapes. It creates a protective barrier without being overly greasy, and I love that it’s fragrance-free and gentle enough for daily use.Within just a day or two, any redness or irritation noticeably improves. I’ve also used it as a nightly moisturizer to prevent rashes before they start, and it’s been incredibly effective.A little goes a long way, so one tub lasts quite a while. It’s now a permanent staple in my diaper bag and changing table. If your baby struggles with dry skin or irritation, this is a must-try product!

We tried this after traditional diaper creams (Desitin and its Equate knock off) failed to stop our newborn's worsening diaper rash. Aquaphor is now what we use for every diaper change; it eventually cleared up the initial rash, by giving baby's skin opportunity to heal between diaper changes, and now helps prevent rashes in the first place.Aquaphor, compared to diaper creams, is denser and seems to provide a less slippy, more sturdy barrier between baby's skin and the offending acidic poops. Yet it's still spreadable for good application (we use a diaper cream spatula; be sure to pick one that isn't too bendy, as Aquaphor is thicker than diaper cream).This is a lifesaver if your baby has worsening diaper rash. I would recommend this product to everyone. Use generously at every diaper change, on patted dry skin for best results.The lone downside is the price. Quite expensive compared to other products. Especially considering how much we go through.

Our pediatrician and the hospital recommended Aquafor to us. We’ve been using it on my baby since birth and can’t recommend it enough. It feels like petroleum jelly but isn’t as greasy and has some tackiness to it like wax. It glides on easily and if your baby has little rashes it works wonders. Love this stuff. My only criticism is that I wish it were cheaper.

Best value by far! Lasts forever. Superior moisture. This is the best multi use product! Dry skin, burns, minor cuts etc ... Love aquaphor products. Highly recommend.Real person, Real review. Just trying to help!

My son has had such a hard time with eczema and this has helped so much! Wish I had it before it got really bad. But I'm glad to have it now. Has helped a lot with all the dry spots on his face and legs. Helps keep him moisturized.I also use it of my feet when they get really dry and just wear socks. It's been a game changer!

We have been using this for over 3 years and this is our 5th or 6th pack. Works wonders for dry skin and diaper rash.
