Great for healing
Cerave healing ointment is the best for helping your skin heal. I love to use this product after exfoliating my feet and then apply socks and let the ointment do its work. It’s a definite game changer if you are looking to keep your feet summer ready year around

Works great
I recently developed eczema as an adult. The flare ups haven't been great. But this has been amazing. This has helped the healing process move so much faster for me. And I have used it on more than just my eczema. I've noticed a huge difference in the way that cuts heel, and even though it's a little bit greasy, I don't mind it because it does a great job. No scent. The bigger container is a way better value.

Effective and fast
Wow this stuff is amazing! I've always had very dry, flaky lips, and I heard this was a good product to try, so I did and now it's the only thing I use! It takes my lips from chapped, to baby smooth so fast. I also really like that it goes well with my reactive skin and doesn't cause me any redness or itchiness. I think it's worth its weight in gold. I recommend this to everyone I know! Definitely a must try.

Great to minimize scarring
Great for minor cuts and healing. Used this and the cut healed without a large scar or color changes. I prefer the squeeze tube to be cleaner. Lasts a long time too

Skin barrier hero
CeraVe Healing Ointment This ointment is a true skin savior! It has a rich, protective texture that deeply hydrates without feeling too greasy. I love that it’s lanolin-free and suitable even for sensitive skin. I use it on dry patches, cracked skin, and even as an overnight treatment for extra moisture – and it works wonders every time. It soothes irritation, locks in hydration, and helps restore the skin barrier thanks to the ceramides and hyaluronic acid. A little goes a long way, and the jar lasts forever. Highly recommend for anyone struggling with dry, compromised skin or just in need of a reliable healing ointment. It’s a must-have in my skincare routine!

AMAZING but a bit greasy
Super hydrating and super smooth, but it does leave a greasy after feel which I'm not really a fan of BUT given how amazing this product is I can over look it. I get really dry and cracked skin on my calves during the winter and I literally am *dusty*, this provides instant relief and makes my skin feel so smooth after a night of absorbing.

This is the new skin product!
I’ve been using CeraVe Healing Ointment, and it’s been great for dry, cracked skin, cuts, and minor burns. It’s fragrance-free, so it’s perfect for sensitive skin. The texture is thick but absorbs pretty well, leaving my skin feeling soft and moisturized without being too greasy. The packaging is simple and easy to use, whether you get the tube or jar. Overall, it’s been super reliable and effective for me.

Ointment changed to oil
I bought a tube of CereBe Healing Oil in December.. Tonight (August), I opened the tube and oil ran out - a lot of it! I do not know what would cause this as it has been stored in a climate controlled space. I was happy with the product until this happened.

Hello N22M! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Healing Ointment. We are truly sorry to hear about the issue you encountered with the product separating, especially after it had been stored carefully in a climate-controlled space. We understand how disappointing this must be, especially as you had been happy with the ointment previously. Our Healing Ointment is carefully formulated with a unique blend of petrolatum, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid to provide intense, long-lasting moisturization and help protect and restore the skin's barrier. While such occurrences of product separation are quite rare, the stability of our formulations is something we continuously monitor and refine. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, as it helps us to understand real-world experiences and uphold the high standards of quality and consistency you expect from CeraVe. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

The Skin Barrier’s Ride or Die
This stuff is like bubble wrap for your face. It’s protective, cushiony, and ready to save the day. My chapped lips are fixed and my dry knuckles are saved. That random irritated patch that popped up out of nowhere is handled. It’s thick but not greasy-greasy, melts right in, and somehow makes my skin feel instantly calmer. No weird smell, no drama, just ceramides and hydration showing up like the loyal friends they are. Basically a security blanket in a tube. If my skin could write thank-you notes, this would get one.

CeraVe Healing Ointment 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
If I could give this more than five stars, I would. The CeraVe Healing Ointment has become an absolute staple in my routine — and honestly, I recommend it to everyone. Packaging: Clean, clinical, and practical. Whether you get the squeeze tube or the big tub, it’s easy to use and great for at-home or on-the-go. I personally love the tube version for its convenience and mess-free application. Texture & Scent: It’s rich and thick, but spreads easily and melts into the skin. Yes, it’s occlusive — but it’s not sticky or heavy like old-school petroleum jellies. It’s fragrance-free, which is a huge win if you’re sensitive or using it on irritated skin, lips, or even baby-safe spots. Ingredients: This stuff is packed with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and petrolatum (the good kind!). It’s designed to restore your skin barrier and protect moisture — and it delivers. I’ve used it on dry hands, cracked cuticles, post-retinol irritation, lips, even healing tattoos. It does it all. Price: Affordable and accessible — especially considering how multi-use it is. A little goes a long way, so the tube lasts forever. My Love for It: I truly don’t go a day without using this. It’s the final step in my nighttime skincare routine, a must-have for cold weather, and the best “slugging” product out there if you’re dealing with compromised skin. It’s dermatologist-recommended for a reason — and now I’m recommending it too. CeraVe Healing Ointment is incredibly effective — it locks in moisture, soothes irritation instantly, and helps visibly restore the skin barrier within just a few uses. If you’re looking for something to heal, protect, and deeply hydrate — this is your holy grail.

It’s good, not amazing
I honestly was not super impressed with this. It does feel good and there’s not much of an odor- both positives- but it seems to wear off a little too soon in my opinion.

Soothing
Been using this for a few weeks now, it’s the Cerave Advanced Repair Ointment. It’s like a balm, soothing when you apply it and fragrance free. I have mainly used it on my lips, heels, sunburn - it’s so versatile and really supports the skin barrier as well as helping nourish dry skin #lorealistaruk
