Title: Aquaphor Healing Ointment, aka vaseline
Review: I am someone who has taken Accutane, and because of the medication I now have pretty dry skin. The skin can crack and slough off, and it can be pretty painful. I read recommendations for Aquaphor, and more specifically this healing ointment, so I decided to give it a shot.The ointment is a sticky, greasy, tar-like substance. I grimaced as I rubbed the goo onto my dry skin, where it stayed for the next 10 hours. My clothing and my bed linens all have residue on them from this ointment. I had tried vaseline (the substance, not the brand) months before this, but disliked it because it was... sticky, greasy, and tar-like. However, the vaseline did help my skin. This is the exact same.If you can put up with the heavy feeling of it on your skin for hours, as well as how it soils your clothes, then I would recommend regular old generic vaseline. It's the exact same, except it probably won't come in as colorful a bottle.
