Steps to Use for Dry Skin

Applying the ointment correctly can significantly improve skin condition, with 95% of users seeing improvement on hands after five days.

1. Cleanse: Wash your face or body with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and bacteria.

2. Prep: Pat the skin mostly dry, but leave it slightly damp to help the ointment trap maximum surface moisture.

3. Apply: Squeeze a small amount from the tube onto your fingertips and massage it gently into the targeted area.

4. Intensive Care: For very dry hands or feet, apply a thick layer at night and wear cotton gloves or socks while sleeping.

5. Frequency: Apply as often as needed throughout the day or night to keep skin protected.

Minor Wound and Burn Care

For superficial injuries, Aquaphor creates an ideal healing environment by keeping the area moist.

1. Cleanse the Site: Gently clean the minor cut, scrape, or burn as instructed by a professional.

2. Wait for New Tissue: Only apply to the site once it has stopped bleeding and new tissue has begun to form.

3. Thin Layer Application: Use a clean applicator (like a Q-tip) to apply a thin layer to avoid direct tube contamination.

4. Cover if Needed: You may cover the treated site with a sterile dressing after application.

Important Precautions

• No Open Wounds: Do not apply to open, bleeding, or wet wounds.

• External Only: For external use only; do not get the ointment into your eyes.

• Severe Cases: Consult a doctor if the condition worsens or if you have deep puncture wounds, animal bites, or serious burns.
