Only 3 stars as they don’t state that they are cruelty free, please change it🙏🫶

    This is nice for healing ointment. There’s no scent and it’s like Vaseline. Only thing I don’t like is you have to put your hands in the tub to get any out. I wish they had a spoon that came with so it was cleaner. Great value for your money!

    I’ve been using CeraVe Healing Ointment at night for the past five years, and it’s still a staple in my skincare routine. It works wonders for sealing in moisture and calming any irritation, especially during colder months or after using active ingredients. The effectiveness is unmatched—it hydrates, soothes, and protects without clogging my pores or causing breakouts. One of the best things about it is the texture. It’s rich and balmy but surprisingly lightweight. It melts into the skin and doesn’t leave behind that heavy, greasy feel that most ointments do. I wake up with soft, calm skin every time. It’s made with skin-loving ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid, which help restore and protect the skin barrier. The scent is basically non-existent, which I love—perfect for sensitive skin. The packaging is clean and practical. I’ve used both the tube and jar versions, and I appreciate that they offer options depending on how much you need. If you’re looking for a reliable, no-fuss product to lock in moisture and give your skin some TLC, this is definitely one to keep on hand.

    For a long time this product wasn’t widely sold in Canada. I watched YouTubers constantly rave about this as a multi-purpose protectant for lips, hands, feet, scrapes, etc. so when it finally started showing up on shelves, I was excited to buy it, even though it’s about 6x the cost of regular Vaseline. I’ve used Vaseline on my hands for a few years to deal with constant peeling skin around my nails. My first impression was very positive. It melted into the skin so much nicer than Vaseline. Within about 20-30 minutes, I didn’t have greasy fingers. I was like “wow I can see why this is so well-liked, and why people pay more for it”. But then over the next few days I noticed that it doesn’t really have any of the benefit that Vaseline does. At least for my particular use case. It does not prevent the skin peeling around my nails the way Vaseline does. So while I love that it has ceramides and other beneficial ingredients, and I love the way it feels compared to Vaseline, it just doesn’t hit the same level of thickness/occlusion, which is the only reason I, personally, would use this product. So I probably won’t repurchase. But if you’re just looking for a well-formulated, light petrolatum based ointment, this would probably be great.

    I’ve always had oily, acne-prone skin, but after giving birth, I developed patches of eczema under my nose, on my lower cheeks, and around my mouth and chin. Regular moisturizers wouldn’t treat it, so I recently purchased this healing ointment in the 5 ounce squeeze tube since I’m a fan of CeraVe products and it’s recommended for eczema. It did not disappoint! The ointment totally covers and moisturizes my flakey skin! A little goes a long way; it feels a little greasy at first, but once it soaks into your skin, it just feels smooth and hydrated. It’s like a cross between Vaseline and Neosporin. This tube will last me many months! I have sensitive skin and this product caused me zero irritation. I’m sure being fragrance-free and dye-free plays a big part in that. 10/10 recommend for people with eczema!

    My go to product for my night time moisturizing routine. A tub of this lasts for a very long time, it has no scent and the texture is similar to Vaseline. I have found that this is great for easily irritated skin.

    I really enjoy crave ointment. It is easy to spread and not too greasy at all. I use the tube one as it is easier for me to use, compared to the tub. It has ceramide. I use it as an eye cream and I rarely have crew feet at 40 years old! I really recommend to have it at home.

    It is very effective and feels nice on the skin. Packaging is beneficial to getting the product out. The scent is very clean and doesn't smell like fragrances. The ingredients are safe for sensitive skin but it is a little bit greasy.

    I tried a little sample of the CeraVe at work, and the texture of the ointment is very smooth, oily, and lathers on very nicely. A little goes a long way, so if you buy the big bottle of this ointment, you will not run out for a while. Great for dry skin!

    It works really well on cracked and chapped heels or lips. There no scent. It’s a petroleum jelly texture. The packaging is okay. It also works really quick.

    I have aged thin skin from the back of my hands to my elbows. I bruise easily. Every night before bed I use this marvelous healing ointment on my hands and arms. It not only gently protects my skin, it helps keep the brushing under control. It's fantastic for aged skin.

    I really like this product and formula. It is just like vaseline but a little thicker and blends easier. I got it in a tube for though and it was extremely tough to get it out of the tube since it is so thick.

    This stuff is everything you ever hoped and dreamed it would be. I use it for EVERYTHING from dry feet to slugging. If I have chapped lips I use this ointment. I put a layer on my feet over a good lotion and then a pair of bamboo socks and go to bed only to wake up with super soft feet. My boyfriend is a commercial painter and he uses some horrible chemicals without gloves and this fixes his peeling, red, and painful hands that no longer have fingerprints until this ointment heals them. I recommend this to everyone. It’s also a wonderful skin barrier for your baby when they have a diaper rash. Winter dry patches don’t stand a chance with this around. I even keep a tube in my purse. Go get some. You definitely need it.

    CeraVe Healing Ointment is a lifesaver for dry, irritated skin. I use it daily on my kids and myself. It contains ceramides and hyaluronic acid, which help restore and protect the skin barrier. The texture is rich but not greasy, and a little goes a long way. I love that it’s fragrance-free and safe for sensitive skin. The packaging is clean and practical, and for the quality, the price is totally worth it. Great for the whole family!
