Purchased this product over a month ago and have waited to give a comprehensive review. Have always used the "Golden- colored" A&D ointment; but, it is priced way-high in the stores now; so, I tried this. It was a great decision. In comparison, this product is colorless, has a pleasant lavender-oil odor and is different in its viscosity. It also contains lanolin. I think that it may also contain some Zinc. It's thicker; not axle-greasy like the Golden A&D. It doesn't smear or transfer onto your clothing, etc. once it is applied. It comes in a clean, sterile container with a screw-on lid. Also has a foil seal, to keep the contents sanitized and "safe" indefinitely. You could buy this product in quantity as it can easily be shelf-stored for long periods of time. The best comparison I can give is to a product named "Mink Oil" which I used years ago. It is smooth and stays put where applied. Seals and coats the skin and maintains a protective coating for many hours. Does not dissolve and dissipate into the skin like the Golden A&D product. Promotes new skin growth and soothes any discomfort. Personally, I had a "SEVERE" skin rash-- origin and name unknown. Was persistent and lasted for 8 to 9 months! Absolutely a terrible rash.. Even antibiotics didn't phase it! Only cryotherapy finally killed it! After it finally subsided, it left a multitude of unsightly round, brown scars on my shins and calfs. I have applied this product daily, before bedtime, and it has worked wonders for me. Promoted new skin growth, as the coated area remains moist and plyable. Many scars have completely disappeared and others are being diminished in size. Brown scars turn to pink (as new skin growth is stimulated) and then diminish in size until they're gone! What more could one ask from any skin ointment product?? This is GREAT stuff! Buy it with confidence!! ML -- S.W. OhioRead full review

I believe the product is pretty good. I'm not sure of the percentage of lanolin or lavender oil in the product or of vitamins A and D, but it has a nice light fragrance and goes on very smoothly. I have very dry skin, especially in the winter, and it's great to use all over after my shower and before bed. The price was reasonable for the amount in the container, and these four containers should last me quite awhile.

This is a 15 ounce jar of A&D ointment. It is an economical way to purchase this topical ointment, It is of somewhat higher viscosity than the name brand product. That is not a positive or a negative.

Very good ointment for diaper change and its really cheap VS major brands. Was paying $16 a piece for major brands and this is at a fraction of the cost. Case is well worth it!!!
