Aquaphor? Everything!
I once again have to just mention how versatile and effective Aquaphor is. It really is my lifesaver, and if I had only one product to choose to keep in my purse, it would be this.
- Chapped or raw lips, it not only heals but soothes burning
- Kids winter noses, mouths, and cheeks- it's the best!
- Dry patches on dogs
- Works as well is not better than Lanolin while breastfeeding. It's not harmful if ingested (according to my ped.).
- Smoothing healing zits that powder settles into- a little dot and you're good
- A better diaper ointment than any I've tried, and if you're out of the diaper phase keep it on hand during unfortunate flu bugs- it can help soothe the pain that comes with diarrhea.
- Mix a little with your long wear lipstick if it's too dry for you
- Quick eraser for botched makeup while you're out
- Instant fix for the dry skin between fingers or under rings
- Soothes cuts, burns, blisters,sunburn, rashes, and more.
- If you have a nose bleeder (my son Adam gets them), using your pinkie nail you can use on inner nostril to soothe the dryness.
- Accidentally get a Zhu Zhu pet caught in your hair? (Don't ask). It helps get it out without too much screaming. Probably works on gum too.
- Why pay $5.00 or more for cuticle oil when this works as well and at a fraction of the cost.
- On that note, it's pretty much a pedicure in a tube
- Add a blob to your regular lotion and skip buying the need for an intensive moisturizer
- Use to polish old wood that's not in great shape. It brings it up to a nice shine and give a temporary seal (olive oil does this too). I tried this on our old dining room table that my great grandfather built- I was very pleased!
And, for $3.49 a tube, $5.99 a tub... or $8.49 for 3 tubes at Sam's Club- it's super economical and a no brainer. I probably should mention that I recently bought my 3rd tub since we've been married (almost 9 years), and a tube at least over a year in your purse/makeup bag.

I have to agree. For about 20 years I had cracked lips that would bleed for hours. Nothing worked--Vaseline, Vitamin E, drinking more water, eating more fat, etc. I had some Aquaphor and just gave it a try last week. So far I have had NO cracking or bleeding. I keep touching my lips because they feel weird (soft, and I'm not used to it).
I had REALLY dry feet too, so I tried the Aquaphor and was really astonished. They were baby soft overnight.
