Superior Product…..
I had seen the familiar Bag Balm container in drug stores for years before finally buying some. I decided to purchase it after seeing an article about it in the local paper here. It spoke of its history and its superior moisturizing and protective qualities, and, though it was originally designed for use on livestock, it has become extremely popular with people. Like a lot of other folks, I sometimes suffer from dry skin. Especially in the winter time when the air is cold and dry. And when I am out on a hike and my skin is exposed to dry wintry blasts of air continually. A visit to the drug store aisle to check out skin conditioners will serve to enlighten one that they are certainly not alone. There are tons of every kind of skin conditioner one can imagine. All conditioners, or balms, seem to work well at first. They moisten and condition the skin effectively enough. However, the real test comes over time in the hopes that it will well stay that way for a while. That is where this Bag Balm (BB) goes to the head of the class over all others.If you have never seen or used BB before, you may at first be put of by its consistency, which will remind one of a thinner version of Vaseline. Although it is a little thick and gooey like Vaseline, it does not stay in that state for long once it is spread on the skin. It feels at first rather slimy, but quickly dries and forms a very effective coating on the skin. Though you can feel it on your skin for hours after application, it neither feels tacky nor sticks to your clothing. And it is nothing less than superior in its moisturizing properties. Even the driest skin will not see BB just disappear and be in need of another application in just a couple of hours like so many other lotions. Personally I apply it once a day when needed and just forget about it until the next. It is by far the best moisturizing ointment I have ever used anywhere. I have to stop a little short in recommending someone smear BB all over ones arms and legs like a lot of women do with other lotions. Especially if your going to be out and about. It can be used that way of course, but its thickness and consistency may prove to be a little much in that respect. That doesn’t mean that some folks may not find its feel all that much to bear up under and use it as an overall lotion. However personally I feel better recommending it for dry patches, and other kinds of skin abrasions. For such use there is absolutely nothing better that I have ever experienced. I routinely spread some on my face when hiking and have never gotten wind burned or suffered dry skin no matter how long I am out there.In conclusion, the “medicinal” scent that other reviewers here have mentioned is barely noticeable to me, and quickly disappears after application in any event. I would have to say that Bag Balm has less fragrance to it than any other lotion that has a scent at all. Also, I am far from being put off by this products original purpose being for use on cattle and other livestock. It has been used far too long by people to be referred to strictly as a veterinary product that has made the crossover. It’s my recommendation that if you suffer from relentless dry skin that you don’t let its original purpose matter to you either. It is certainly not the first product that was originally created with another use in mind, that eventually was found to have a further benefit in some other area. My experience with Bag Balm is that it works so well on dry skin that it eventually puts itself out of business. That is to say, the dry patches just eventually just stop appearing and you can slack off on its use for quite some time. So unless you live in Death Valley, this 10 oz can of balm should last you a year or more.Its the very best at doing what it is supposed to do, and I highly recommend it…

Primarly a skin moisturizer but has healing properties.
Although this product is used primarily to treat teats on cows, I remember my mom using this ointment to treat insect bites, dry skin, scuffs and bruises, etc. It has a texture similar to vaseline but I prefer this product over vaseline.

Miracle stuff for dry skin
“Moisturize” is not a strong enough word. I have been using Bag Balm for decades. The scent is a little medicinal, but it works like nothing else to radically moisturize my life-long chronically dry feet and hands. I put it on at night and sleep in it. It doesn’t bother my (cotton) sheets even when I put it on my legs and arms in the winter. Now that I’m older I sometimes use it on my face, neck and chest overnight too. Keeps my nails and cuticles healthy, and takes care of chapped lips too. A little goes a long way, so it lasts a long time. (If I get a bad hangnail or cut I might use/add Neosporin, but Bag Balm is much more affordable for everyday use.)I gave some to a friend going through an especially drying course of chemotherapy. His oncologist was amazed, and said he had never seen anything work like this. His wife asked me for a tin of it too when he refused to share it with her.It was originally formulated for dairy cows whose udders would get chapped from milking. My dairy farmer grandfather used it religiously on the cows and his own hands to keep the skin soft, supple, and healthy. Mom said it is “turpilated” (sp?) petroleum jelly. I don’t know what “turpilated” is, but it matters to the product’s effectiveness as a healing agent (plain petroleum jelly is NOT enough.)

A Greasy Miracle for Dry Skin and Paws!
If you’re looking for a heavy-duty solution to seriously dry skin, Bag Balm Ointment is your new best friend. This stuff is like a waxy, gooey hug for parched, cracked skin. Yes, it feels a bit gross at first, but trust me, it’s worth it!Pros:- Works wonders on extremely dry skin- Great for healing cracked, dry areas- Can be used on both humans and furry friendsCons:- Waxy consistency can melt in high temperatures during shipping- Greasy and gooey feeling may not be for everyoneWe’ve used Bag Balm before, and while it has its pros and cons, it’s a go-to for those tough dry spots. Just keep in mind that due to its waxy nature, it can melt if your shipping address is in a hot climate.I personally prefer using it on our dogs’ dry, cracked noses and paws. It works like a charm! Just be sure to check for any open wounds before applying, as it’s not meant for those situations.Overall, if you can get past the initial greasy feeling, Bag Balm Ointment is a true lifesaver for seriously dry skin. Your skin (and your pup’s paws) will thank you!

I have been using this product for a week now (I have very dry skin) and it has helped a great deal the only negative is that it does not have a great smell it has not put me off using it as it works and dissipates rapidly, I don’t view it as cosmetic but more medical treatment it does it’s job very well.

長年煩う、アトピー持ち特有の超ゆるぎ肌で、ちょっとした乾燥で一気に悪化してしまいます。(ホテル内は数時間いるだけでOUT!と言う位。T _ T )クチコミで上がる良さそうなアイテムをかたっぱしから試して来ましたが、どれも定着せず。(最初は良くても直ぐに元に戻ってしまう)このバッグバームは、webでも話題に上がった80代の現役モデルの女性が60年以上使い続けているスキンケアである事から興味を持ちました。保湿力が優れた天然素材(ラノリン)と言う所にも。アメリカでは家畜のスキンケアのみならず、人間の赤ちゃんのおむつかぶれにも普通に使われている事も知り、美容&乾燥防止にと去年の冬から使用。日頃のスキンケアの最後、蓋として使っています。冬場は室温が低い事もありバームは固くなっていますが、手のひらに乗せて合わせると、体温で滑らかに。夏場は室内でも冷暗所に置いておけば、溶ける事はありませんが、やはり冬と違って、やや緩めのテクスチャーとなります。このバッグバームには消炎効果があるのでしょうか、保湿力もスゴイのですが初期の肌あれなら就寝前の湿布で翌日には引いていて、手湿疹からくる裂傷にも即効性はありませんが保湿しながら徐々に傷も軽くなりました。私はメイク前と就寝前、一日に2回。アトピーからくる乾燥がきつい時にはその時に応じて湿布。一時、入手が出来なくなって1ヶ月少々、使用していなかった事がありましたが、その時はまた酷い乾燥状態に戻ってしまいました。そしてようやく再入手して使った翌日から、再びお肌が安定してきた事で、私にとってバッグバームは手放せないと痛感。美容効果もありました♪目の回りにハリと潤いが出て、これ迄使っていた某高級海外コスメのアイクリームを使わなくても良くなった位。当然、唇も♪つまりは、しっかり潤うので、顔全体にハリが出る訳です。但し、本来は人間のスキンケアに作られた訳では無いので、たぶん紫外線対策など入ってはいないでしょうから、日中外出する際は、紫外線対策万全のベースメイクは必ずしています。(塗ると油っぽさがあるので、それが焼けたりしないか不安で。^^; )本国では日本円で¥1000もしない価格だそうです。以前は輸入しているお店で1oz¥1800前後で購入。(私の場合、約1ヶ月で使い切り)それでも、ステロイドといったお薬を常用するよりかは健康的で、スキンケアに掛けている費用からすればお値打ちかな、と思っていましたが、こちらのショップのは10oz!!お値段も良心的とくれば、そりゃ内容量10倍の方を選ぶでしょう♪現状、気軽に入手出来る商品では無いので、これから迎える季節の変わり目、そして秋冬、まず年内は心配しなくて済みそうです☆あくまでも、これらは私個人の感想です。使用量も効果も、人それぞれですしね。でも、乾燥に悩んでいる方には一度オススメです。いきなり顔からでは不安な方は、まずはボディから試されてみては?ペットが舐めても大丈夫ですので、毒になる事は無いかと。ただ、塗りたてはベタベタ感が強いので、それが嫌な方は極少量からをお勧め。私は、手のひらで温めてのばしたら塗り込むのでは無く、手のひらで顔を押さえる様に、軽く押し込む様な付け方をしています。これも人それぞれかもしれませんが。初めての方はまずは1ozから。そしてリピートを決められたら、当然、10ozがお得!!===【注意】========================何度も言いますが、これは私個人の感想です。バッグバームはもとは乳牛のお乳のマッサージや搾乳による傷のケア、他家畜・ペットのちょっとした裂傷、肉球のケアなどをメインにされたバームです。決してお薬ではありませんので、そこは誤解無き様☆彡※基本成分:ラノリン(確か羊毛から抽出?の油)================================

愛用しています。普通のワセリンより使い心地がいいです。臭いが気になりますが、効き目を考えると気にならないです。
