    I've been happily using Vaseline petroleum jelly as an eye cream since May, but lately it's just not cutting it. My eyes have been flakey and dry and irritated despite using a proper eye cream...

    I love a product that double tasks, and this is definitely one of them. I have lots of love for CeraVe products, and I use their Hydrating Cleanser and PM Facial Moisturizing lotion faithfully....

    I'm a big fan of CeraVe Cream for face, hands, and body, and when I saw this I thought it might help my cracking, peeling, itchy hands. I was right. At bedtime, I apply CeraVe Cream, layer...

    I use both Cerave and Aquaphor ointments and like both of them equally as well. Both are petrolatum based but Aquaphor has lanolin, glycerin and skin soothing bisabolol while Cerave ointment has...

    To me, this has a much thinner, less coating consistency than Aquafor or Vaseline. It nevers really sinks in, it is more of a coating. It doesn't stay on as long for me. Those who like the feeling...

    I like aquaphor. But I rather buy CeraVe! I had a blister a few weeks back on my foot and an overnight treatment with cotton socks had the blister cleared up faster. I feel like the Cerave is A...

    It is the equivalent of using vaseline on ones skin to soothe it with. Which is why, you can honestly just buy a big tub of Vaseline (which is much cheaper), and simply use that instead. Now, i...

    I use this mainly as a lip balm and cuticle cream. I find it less greasy than aquaphor, which is what has me hooked (even though i still love aquaphor). I had a fever blister a few weeks back and...

    Usually I use Aquaphor but I found this on sale at Wags and they gave me a coupon so I got a 3 oz tube for only $1. Can't beat that with a stick. Anyway, I had a wicked, stubborn, inexplicable rash...

    I found this to be far superior to Vaseline or Aquaphor after a chemical peel and a little bit goes a long way. It FEELS like it moisturizes and penetrates through the dry, ready to peel...

    I love this ointment much better than aquaphore, as it goes in quicker. This heals and coats better. This has petroleum, but also mineral oil and paraffine with ceramides and hyaluronic acid and...

    I love all CeraVe products, so when I saw this I had to pick it up and try it out, and I am SOLD! I previously was a die-hard Aquaphor fan, but I have totally switched over to CeraVe. This stuff...

    Similar to Aquaphor but with the addition of ceramids. Ceramids in the CeraVe products really make a difference. They are essential components of your skin's structure and function. Feels slightly...

    I bought the small tube of this. It is a petroleum jelly / mineral / silicone based product. It is an "ointment" that is more emollient than plain old Vaseline and way less thick than Aquaphor. ...
