"I've been using this for quite a while and find it to be one of the best ointments for all types of skin issues. During winter it is great for itchy dry spots, and during warmer months, it's great for bites, scrapes, rashes, etc.. This is certainly a must have for me."

"We use this stuff for all scrapes and bo-bos. We call it the bo-bo medicine. It is great for diaper rashs too. I have a 6 and 2 year old and used it for diaper rashes for both. This stuff is better then anything over the counter. If I coat this on the diaper rash at night, by morning it is usually gone unless it was a very sever rash. My daycare providers have always asked me where I get this stiff because it works so much better then anything they had seen.

The kids love it for bo-bos too. It does not burn and they can even put it on themselves. It is very inexpensive at vitacost so I have about 6 or 7 jars of it around the house. We use it very often. I highly recommend this great stuff!"

"I've been using this tea tree oil ointment as a face cream for the past 4 years, and it's been great! I've tried some of more expensive face creams but this one is by far the best. Some of my friends started using it too after telling them about it. It's not expensive either if you think of it as a face cream too :o)"

"I have tried this skin ointment and although it seems to be a good product, I could not handle the smell. Unfortunately, the smell is the natural smell from the tea tree oil, which smells more like a pesticide. I am returning this item."
