Not just for cyclists.February 21, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been using this on every kind of scrape, rash, chaffing, skin abrasion, and small cut I've had since I bought it. I put it on when I cut myself shaving or where my Spring allergies have caused me to rub a spot near my eye raw.
In addition to healing and protecting--both of which it does better than bacitracin or neosporin on all but deep cuts--it's also quite pleasant. It's not greasy, nor so thin in consistency that it just comes right off if you don't put a band-aid over it. Petroleum jelly by comparison seems to add its own bit of irritation that this does not; and this provides some bit of pain relief as well for those knicks, bug bites, and rashes that sting or itch. Add that it smells nice.
BOTTOM LINE: On minor knicks, I just put a bit of this ointment on and I'm good to go. On chaffing, it provides quick relief and healing--though better to go with Brave Soldier Friction Zone Skin Protectantover the long term.
Stick a tube of this in your backpack for a hike, bike, or camping trip--it will come in extremely handy when you just need a bit of relief from a minor irritation that's not really worth the full first-aid treatment.
