absolutely amazing product [SEP] have had this around the house since i was a kid but never knew its real healing power until i woke up one night screaming from the pain of a bedsore and very dry very thin skin around the tailbone after soaking in the tub i slathered this on and continued to do so for a week by which time everything cleared up however i continue to use it on a daily basis since i am still pretty much bed bound and need the continued protection i am not making any medical claims with this review however am only relating my experience when reading the contents i noted that it contains a tiny bit of lanolin which of course works wonders for all kinds of minor skin problems however it might be a problem if one is allergic to wool
