Vaniply Ointment Tube, 2.5 Ounce (1 Pack)

I have dry, sensitive skin - actually, it's DEHYDRATED skin according to my dermatologist. Winter makes it 100x worse, thanks to the low humidity and frigid temperatures.Typically, I use non-soap cleansers (Albolene at night, water-only in the morning). At night, I use a thin layer of Eucerin's Original Healing Soothing Repair Creme. It's extremely rich, but very thick, hard to spread, and greasy. Perfect for nighttime, but not so much when facing the general public. It's also the best foot cream I've ever used, and one big jar is like a lifetime supply since you need such a tiny amount. I'd also tried Vaseline, but couldn't get past the faint petroleum smell, and the texture was absolutely awful. Obviously the slug life is not for me.In the morning, I was using a thin layer of Aquaphor to seal in moisture. I liked the results, but no matter how thin a layer I applied, I still had more shine and greasiness than I would like. I then started using Elta MD Intense Moisturizer, which is basically just petrolatum & paraffin. It melts into the skin, goes on smooth, and doesn't leave a noticeable sheen. I love the way it looks and feels, but it just didn't seem moisturizing enough.Enter Vaniply. I already use Vanicream moisturizer as an all-over body moisturizer and was given a sample of Vaniply from my dermatologist. It's an ointment, much like Aquaphor, but isn't petroleum-based. The active ingredient is dimethicone (1%), which is a great occlusive for sealing in moisture (Gold Bond also contains dimethicone). The ointment is opaque, rather than clear like Aquaphor and glides on smoothly. Unlike Aquaphor or Vaseline, the Vaniply seems to absorb/dry quickly, leaving the skin smooth, supple and soft, with a matte appearance. I haven't had any issues with breakouts, clogged pores or milia, even though my skin is so very sensitive. I like to apply the Vaniply over slightly damp skin, or over a thin layer of Vanicream if in need of extra moisture. It also works great on dry, chapped lips, but I prefer Aquaphor.Vaniply is impossible to find in stores, so you'll most likely need to order it online. A little goes a long way!

Today I got Vaniply Ointment and just started using it. Recently I was diagnosed with a skin allergy for which my upper side of upper lip became very dry and I was facing burning sensation, the skin also became whitish (dull and chipped). Doctor gave me some sample tube (Vaniply ointment for sensitive skin) with other medications and instrusted to apply it every half an hour gap and I really felt better after using it. Few days back my sample got over and I ordered it. I want to mention that this is not the sensitive one (which doctor gave me as sample) as the sensitive one has 1% Dimenthicone. But till now I am happy with my purchase. After using it, I felt my skin is moisturized. I didn't feel any uncomfortableness till now (though it is not sensitive one). There is no smell so that is another positive thing. At this time, I am really not sure if it will work for sensitive skin or not. But I do have sensitive skin (I already mentioned that I was diagnosed with skin allergy), till now I didn't face any issue. Let's see after some days, how it goes.

The National Eczema Association has given Vaniply Ointment their highest Seal of Acceptance Rating, 5 out of 5 stars. Between that and the great reviews at Amazon and other stores, I had to try it. I really just wanted to see how it would work as a lip balm, and chose to buy the larger, more economical size first.This ointment is incredible. There’s an area on my lips that has been chapped for a very long time. Within an hour of first applying the Vaniply ointment, the chapping completely went away. My lips stay moist for hours and hours without feeling the need to reapply. And it’s the kind of moist and soft that you don’t get with waxy lip balms, which really just tend to dry out quickly and make you want to constantly apply more.I will be replacing my beloved Burt’s Bees, and buy several .35 oz tubes of Vaniply to keep in my car, purse, bedside, and desk drawer. Vaniply ointment as a lip balm is a game changer for me. Bye bye, Burt’s Bees.

I'm never not having this around again. It heals chapped lips so fast and is mild and soothing no matter what your deal is. And it's improving my face already more than any other face moisturizer I've tried. I used to layer vaseline or Aquaphor over moisturizer when my skin got really dry, but this works *so* much better it's crazy, and actually improves the skin underneath rather than just covering it. Come winter time, it'll be perfect for putting on noses and checks to protect against biting winds.This is more penetrating and less occlusive than Aquaphor, so it's fine to use alone or as a top layer.Update: Still in love with this! After a minor medical procedure my skin got very irritated by the adhesive from the bandage, and this is the only thing that made it feel better and start healing.

La seule crème qui ne m’irrite pas, ne brûle pas et ne pique pas. Super produit que j’utilise tous les jours

This ointment is excellent as a lip moisturiser, and there is no unpleasant scent or taste.
