CeraVe Healing Ointment, Hydrating Skin Protectant With Petrolatum, Hyaluronic Acid & Ceramides, Face & Body Skin Barrier Repair For Cracked, Chafed, Dry Skin, Fragrance Free & Lanolin Free, 12 Oz

I am so amazed by how fast this cleared up my baby’s dry irritated skin. My 3mo old had a bad case of cradle cap that then turned into terribly chapped peeling skin that spread to his entire face. We tried everything and his skin only got worse, we were so stressed out trying to find things to soothe his skin we tried aquaphor, breast milk, and a number of other baby lotions that didn’t work. After taking him to his pediatrician he recommended this healing ointment and I am so happy he did. We noticed results the next morning his skin started to clear up and felt smooth as ever. These pictures are 3 days apart the first one being the first application with this ointment. He still has just a bit of redness on one of his cheeks and a little dry patch on his forehead but the difference is amazing. I believe there is a baby version of this ointment but the pediatrician said to get this one specifically so that’s what we went with. I will always have this stuff in my baby bag from now on it’s amazing!

I have had chapped lips all my 60+ years. And I have tried probably 60+ products searching for relief. This CeraVe healing ointment is the best product I ever used for healing my lips. It has a consistency similar to petroleum jelly. It's great for other dry skin if you don't mind the thick, slick texture. I originally received a couple of sample containers. Now that they are empty, I purchased this 12 oz. container for refills. I would have been happier with a container less than 12 oz. But it will not go to waste.

I’ve been using the 12 oz jar of CeraVe Healing Ointment for years, and I always keep one around. My hands and feet get really dry in the winter—especially the backs of my heels—and this helps a lot. It’s thick enough to stay on and protect the skin, but not overly greasy. One jar lasts a long time, so it’s also a good deal.I also use it on small cracks or scrapes, and it helps them heal faster. It’s gentle, has no scent, and just does what it’s supposed to do.If you prefer more natural options, shea butter is another good choice—just a bit oilier. And if your hands are really dry, try applying this before bed and wearing cotton gloves. You’ll wake up with soft, smooth hands.Simple, reliable, and worth having around—especially during the colder months.

I can't live without this stuff! I use tretinoin but it has been known to make my skin peel. If I use this after applying tret, I'm SO much better. Some recommend vaseline for this method, it's called "slugging," but this is way better than petroleum product. I'm now I'm addicted and spread it all over my lips, elbows and knees before going to bed.You can apply this directly over tret or use the sandwich method, applying tret, then moisturizer, then this. Highly recommend to keep skin hydrated

I don't leave many reviews however, this is a time to do so. I didn't take before and after pics unfortunately but I had severe dyshidrotic eczema on my hands and wrists. I had this once before and nothing helped except getting a steroid cream from my doctor. CeraVe healing ointment started healing just as little as two days and in four days this eczema was almost completely gone!! I am shocked on how fast it works! Yes, it is a little oily like vaseline leaves however, it does aborbs eventually. It is so hydrating and I am just so happy I don't have to use a prescription steroid to get rid of this crap. This will be my new go to in my medicine cabinet!

There are pros and cons to this product. I bought it based on my dermatologist’s recommendation. The product itself is very effective, and I’ve noticed a significant difference in my hands. However, the description claims it’s non-greasy, but it is. Therefore, I can only use it before going to bed.I strongly recommend you avoid the tube packaging and opt for the jar instead. The product is so thick that it’s extremely difficult to squeeze out of the tube. I tried various methods before giving up and buying the jar. That’s why I’m giving it a 4-star rating, with the packaging being the only reason for the lower rating.I wish I had found this product years ago because I’ve spent a lot of money on other products only for it not to work. It has helped my extremely dry skin, cracked hands and finger tips, and dry, cracking cuticles. You won’t be disappointed!

My face was getting red and skin rash. I tried putting coconut cream on. I tried alo vera cream. Nothing seemed to take care of the issue. I researched and self-diagnosed my issue as being rosacea, a skin condition. I put that into the Amazon search bar and found this cream. It arrived in the afternoon, I applied a heavy dose then, and again before bed. In the morning, the condition had improved immensely. The redness was almost gone and the rash had improved. I used a lighter coating three times the next day and the following day it was virtually gone. I love this cream. Very thick, and it works. Hope it does the same for you.

I’ve tried so many products for my dry, cracked heels, and nothing worked quite like CeraVe Healing Ointment. After just a few nights of applying it before bed (and wearing socks over it), my heels are noticeably softer, smoother, and no longer painful. The formula is thick but not greasy, and it absorbs well without making a mess.What I love most is that it contains ceramides and hyaluronic acid, so it actually helps heal and protect the skin barrier instead of just masking the dryness. It’s fragrance-free, gentle on sensitive skin, and a little goes a long way.If you struggle with cracked heels—especially in dry or cold weather—this ointment is a must-have. Total game changer!
