Effective. Good quantity for price (2-pk) and I've found that the relief is quicker, and lasts longer, than the name brand. I appreciate being able to identify the ingredients listed on the package, and the addition of aloe for additional soothing and relief. Also appreciate the flip-cap top for the tube.

TheLifeOfLi - 3 months ago
2 for the price of one- sure its great. Will see if it works correctly after a few uses. My concern is that theres so safety film or seal, nor is the box it comes in sealed or covered with plastic/biofilm wrap. Who’s to say this isn’t safe? Or hazardous? I needed a cream for eczema and the insect bite cream wasn’t helping. When i first got it- it had a silver seal. The red eczema relief tubes have no safety.

It gets the job done. But it is a little loose and almost runny. It feels almost oily, smears easily and rubs on things The Aveeno has a thicker consistency and stays where you put it

BEWARE: CONTAINS PETROLEUM BYPRODUCTS!!!

Eve Wilde - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
I used to LOVE this cortisone cream and it was my go-to for YEARS. They have recently changed the formula and added mineral oil and petrolatum to it though, which probably makes it cheaper for them to manufacture but diminishes its value to the consumer greatly. These are petroleum byproducts and IMHO they have no place in skin care formulas, especially for people who have sensitive skin and need to use an anti itch cream. The only way they will correct the formula and remove the petroleum products from this formula is if people complain loudly and frequently. I have since switched to Aveeno, which doesn’t have petrolatum or mineral oil in it.

I like that this product comes in a two pack which will last longer for my family. The ointment is not too greasy and rubs in well to the skin. We have used it for some insect bites and dry skin patches and it takes away the itch right away!

Jenlynne21 - 4 months ago
This cream works beautifully to quell the itching from my eczema the first time I used it. I reapply during the day as needed and it works every time. The only thing I don’t like is how long it takes to absorb. I have to rub forever to not have a white cast keeping my finger greasy and where I apply it.

I get itchy spots where there is frequent contact with rubbing clothes (at bra band) or at places like my arm pits. I use a hydrocortisone cream daily to combat the itch and keep the rash under control. This cream works just as well as the name brand product, and is so much more affordable!

I really like this anti-itch cream. I am used to the kind that is more like Vaseline, but I prefer this. Also, two tubes in the box! It goes on smoothly and seems to lessen the itch of allergies or psoriasis. Use it for the dog too!

LPMOM - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
I ordered the one I always got for over 5 years...they sent me an "upgraded" version In red packaging that is not better and smells terrible. When things are good.... They always change them. It worked great before. I think it's supposed to be similar to cortisone brand but that brand didn't help me, so they just made the up and up cream bad for me.
