Formulated for skin post-surgery, this ultra-hydrating face balm is actually formulated mainly with petrolatum — making it a real no-nonsense occlusive moisturizer. Its simplicity makes it great for sensitive skin and it can make for a great moisturizing treatment if you've got extra dry skin.
We all love our bells and whistles but when it comes to basics, there's no beating Aquaphor. It's the best lip mask/balm, it cures dry patches in a flash and some even like to use it to help heal minor wounds and acne. Thanks to the petrolatum base, it's pretty much the occlusive moisturizer to end all occlusive moisturizers — though it also includes emollient ingredients like mineral oil and lanolin, as well as humectants like glycerin.
If you have any sensitivity to petrolatum or mineral oil, but are in need of a great occlusive moisturizer, look no further than this gem from Babo Botanicals. With the beeswax and shea butter in the formula, it creates a great skin-saving barrier that helps soothe eczema and stubborn dry patches.
