Original Ointment — Reddit Reviews
by A+D
Updated September 22, 2026
Petrolatum-heavy ointment for sealing in moisture on cracked, dry skin; thick and greasy.
What the community says
A petrolatum-and-lanolin ointment people reach for on lips, eczema patches, and over-dry spots. It’s the kind of occlusive that helps stop cracking and keeps skin protected, but the smell and heavy feel put some people off.
