Latina Beauty

Mothers love it on their baby’s bottoms. Marathon runners won’t run without it. Tattoo artists swear by it…and pretty much any belleza who’s ever tried Aquaphor Healing Ointment won’t live without by it. ¿Por qué? Because it heals dry piel and can be used in a zillion ways.  That’s why it’s an Essential.

I discovered Aquaphor a few years ago, when they became a client of mine, and was always amazed at the brand’s diverse following. Pretty soon, I began to use it and got hooked on it. And how could I not? It’s highly moisturizing, scent-free, and soothes my winter skin rápidamente.

Made with petrolatum, mineral oil, lanolin, panthenol, glycerin, and bisabolol,Aquaphor has a similar feel to petroleum jelly so it feels heavy on la piel. However, the milagros it makes on la piel are well worth it.  As the big momma of all ointments, you can use it to treat dry and cracked piel, burns, chapped or chafed piel, chapped labios, and irritations caused by medical procedures.  Some people also use it to treat eczema, soothe newly-tattooed piel and doctors even recommend it to their patients after laser treatments and relieve dry piel due to the effects of radiation therapy.

Aquaphor is sold at drugstores nationwide for about $5.99.
