Aquaphor moisturizes and protects skin to promote healing. Aquaphor is a semi-occlusive substance, meaning that it lets oxygen in while letting excess fluid out in order to create an ideal healing environment for minor wounds or chaffed, dry skin.

Aquaphor is formulated with petrolatum as well as panthenol, glycerin, and lanolin alcohol, which work together to help moisturize, soothe, and protect skin and help promote healing. Aquaphor is free of fragrances, preservatives, and dyes, and is suitable for sensitive skin. Aquaphor is also non-acnegenic, so it won’t cause you to break out.

Yes. The Aquaphor Lip Repair line is designed to be used specifically on your lips to help soothe chapped, cracked lips!

Like most personal care products, Aquaphor products can expire. You should not use expired Aquaphor products. To check, look for an expiration date printed on the product packaging. If you don’t see a date, look for a period after opening date. A period after opening date will look like a picture of a container with a number inside. This represents the number of months that the product will remain good for under normal conditions after opening. If you notice any changes in the color, smell, or texture of your Aquaphor product, it is best to discard the product and purchase a new one.
