What Else You Need to Know: The Cetaphil Healing Ointment is a clinically proven healing ointment specifically formulated for extremely dry skin, cracked hands and heels, and other minor skin irritations. A high concentration of skin protectant Petrolatum quickly protects and heals dry, irritated skin, while Shea Butter softens and smooths and Vitamin E improves skin resilience — hydrating for a full 48 hours and maintaining the skin's natural barrier.

Why It Works — Key Ingredients:

Petrolatum (High Concentration Skin Protectant): A clinically proven skin protectant at a high concentration that quickly creates a protective barrier over extremely dry, cracked, and irritated skin — locking in moisture, healing dry skin, and protecting against further moisture loss for 48-hour hydration.

Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii): A deeply nourishing and emollient butter that softens and smooths extremely dry, cracked, and rough skin — including cracked hands and heels — leaving skin feeling soft, smooth, and replenished.

Vitamin E (Tocopherol): An antioxidant and skin-conditioning active that improves skin resilience and protects dry, sensitive skin from environmental stressors — supporting the skin's natural barrier and contributing to the formula's 48-hour hydrating performance.
