As someone who battles dry, cracked heels and chapped hands year-round, I was skeptical about trying yet another ointment. But this Amazon Basics Healing Ointment has become my holy grail. The texture is perfect—soft enough to scoop easily but never greasy. I apply a thin layer to my heels before bed (with socks, of course), and by morning, they feel noticeably smoother.

During the day, it’s my hand savior. After frequent handwashing, my skin cracks painfully. A dab of this rubbed into the back of my hands keeps them protected without that sticky residue. Bonus? It even tames flyaway hairs in a pinch!

I love that it’s fragrance-free—no overpowering scents interfering with my perfume. And the 14oz tub lasts forever! Pro tip: It works just as well as pricier brands (yes, I did a side-by-side test). For the price and performance, this is staying in my routine.
