Eucerin Aquaphor Ointment Body Spray 250ml

Product Information

Beth Gillette is the beauty editor at Cosmopolitan with five years of experience researching, writing, and editing skincare stories that range from moisturizers for acne-prone skin to eye creams for dark circles. She’s an authority in all skincare categories, but is an expert when it comes to putting Aquaphor on your face, since she's been doing it for years (under the guidance of dermatologists and aestheticians, of course).

There’s a difference between ointment and lotion. Ointments like Aquaphor do a more heavy-duty job of moisturizing the skin than do lotions. That’s because ointments have an oil base, while lotions have a water base. Don’t submerge or keep your tattoo wet for a prolonged period of time. While brief showers are fine, this means no swimming, baths, or hot tubs for at least 2 weeks. You should only apply Aquaphor to minor wounds like shallow cuts and mild burns (more serious wounds require medical attention). This body oil is pricey, but many reviewers stated that it's worth every penny. Though this is not the same cream consistency as Aquaphor, the multipurpose oil is made with 28 natural fruit and flower oils like jojoba, rosehip, and chamomile, as well as avocado, grapeseed, mango and pumpkin seed that make it incredibly nourishing and hydrating. You can use this oil on your face, body, feet, and hands. Reviewers shared that they even used it to give their hair shine and remove makeup.Mona Gohara, MD, is an associate clinical professor of dermatologist at Yale School of Medicine, and a board-certified dermatologist at the Dermatology Physicians of Connecticut in multiple locations in CT. Keratosis pilaris is a condition associated with dry skin that causes bumps. Research suggests that applying Aquaphor to affected skin can minimize the symptoms and appearance of this condition. Healing injured skin

When it comes down to it, slugging certainly doesn’t work for everyone, and it’s always best to run anything new by your dermatologist before you try it. But if you (and your skin) are in the clear, try slathering on some Aquaphor every few nights and see if it’s the key you’ve been missing. Just be prepared to sacrifice your pillowcase in this pursuit of dewy skin (all’s fair in skin and war, right?). Are your lashes and eyebrows dry and brittle, breaking off easily? Aquaphor isn’t just for your skin – it can actually be used on your lashes and eyebrows as well. Apply a small amount to your lashes and eyebrows as part of your daily skincare routine to help them regain moisture and become stronger. Keep in mind that Aquaphor doesn’t help the lashes and brows grow, it just strengthens and moisturizes them. Be extra careful when applying any type of product around your eyes and wash it off immediately if it causes any irritation to the eyes.

If you have sensitive skin, you know that soaps, cosmetics, jewellery... even a new washing powder, can unexpectedly irritate your skin.

I started slugging with Aquaphor after incorporating a higher-strength prescription tretinoin into my routine, which ended up causing major dryness, flaking, and irritation on my skin. Not only did Aquaphor fix my dryness and heal my skin barrier, but it gave me the most incredible glow. Lotions are more spreadable and breathable than ointments. Aquaphor has the added benefit of anti-inflammatory effects, which can make the tattoo healing process speedier and more comfortable. Aquaphor is made with only a small number of ingredients which are all designed for those who have sensitive skin. It doesn’t contain any fragrances, preservatives or dyes, so it won’t irritate the skin at all. It contains moisturizing ingredients such as petrolatum, panthenol, glycerin, and lanolin alcohol. Once the mist is on the skin, though, it sinks in almost immediately, which needless to say, I couldn't be happier about. (Waiting around for hours for the ointment to fully absorb was never on my list of favorite activities.) Now, I can easily apply it to my whole bod, wait a few minutes, and get dressed without having to worry about messy, residual ointment getting on my clothes. Pretty damn game-changing, if you ask me.After a given number of days of using ointment (your tattoo artist will specify how many), you’ll switch to lotion. This is because you need to keep your tattoo moist for several weeks until it’s completely healed. If you apply it while your skin is still damp from washing, you can maximize its moisturizing effects. Essentially, it’s almost like the American version of Vaseline. Yes, we know your mind probably went straight to Puberty Blues, but let's stay focused in the name of stellar skin, shall we? It’s uncommon for people to experience negative reactions to Aquaphor and other petrolatum products. But in rare cases, Aquaphor is known to cause an allergic reaction that can cause a rash.
