If you are looking for something to heal skin faster you might like this zinc ointment. I tried it on a cat scratch and the skin did seem to repair itself quicker than normal. I have sent a tube of this to a friend who said his hands were cracking from the bitter cold. Will see if it works. The only thing is you need to use this at night, not during the day. It is a thick white paste that doesn't rub in easily. So best to put it on before bed and wash it off in the morning. Also seems to work for inflamed areas on the face, but don't get it near your eyes.<br /><br />~The Rebecca Review

It seems to be authentic zinc oxide. I have no complaints.

It is okay. I have been looking for 3 years for the old timey zinc oxide without creamy stuff in it so it will stay on my lips and nose without melting off. So far, haven't found it...

Is what it says, as quality as I would expect. About all you can ask for from a tube of Zinc Oxide....

I've used zinc oxide all my life, and I haven't been able to find it recently. So I ordered this one, and it's a great product.

Outstanding for preventing chafing in long distance hikes or bike rides.
