i had a buddy that used it for his face, and when he told me i couldnt believe it.. i introduced it to him as a chapstick, but he definitely said it worked well for his face

It's good to hear that.

I have very sensetive skin, so I'm afraid to try it.

Bump...!

i would definitely NOT put it on your face, during accutane it might not make you break out, but it might and it definitely would after...its just not a good idea to take the chance

when i went to my derm, there was another derm there that saw my buddy. (we did our appts on the same day). anyways, his derm told him that he USED aquaphor on his face when he was on it.. i've never done it but i don't think it would hurt.. i used it for my nostrils still (1+ month post-tane and still dry nasal )

Mixed answers here... better not try it.

Thanks.

I stopped using a line that was breaking me out about 10 days ago and started using a much better line. Most of it has cleared up, but yesterday I broke out in a new whitehead and cyst. At first I thought it could still be remnant from the other products, but I also used Aquaphor all over the day before I broke out because I was dry from Retinol

Not sure whether it's from Aquaphor or hormones or the previous products? But the first ingredient in Aquaphor is mineral oil. There's also an alcohol in it that is comedogenic. Worst. IDea. ever.
