Beiersdorf Skin Care Products

Beiersdorf is the German company behind Aquaphor, one of the most recommended names in dermatologist-trusted skin repair. This collection brings together Aquaphor's ointment-based moisturizers and lip care — the products people reach for when skin is dry, cracked, chapped, or recovering from irritation.

What sets Aquaphor apart from a standard lotion is its formulation. The Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Hand and Body Ointment is a 41% petrolatum-based ointment that forms a semi-occlusive barrier, locking in moisture while still allowing skin to breathe. That makes it a go-to for very dry hands, cracked heels, rough elbows, minor cuts and scrapes, and skin left raw by frequent washing or harsh weather. It's unscented, which matters for sensitive or reactive skin. We carry it in a travel-friendly 0.35 oz. tube for a pocket or bag and a 3 oz. tube for regular home use.

For lips that peel, split, or chap in cold or dry air, Aquaphor Lip Balm uses the same protective ointment approach in a 0.35 oz. tube. Unlike waxy balms that sit on the surface, it soothes and helps heal dry, chapped lips rather than just coating them.

A common question: is Aquaphor the same as Vaseline? Not quite — Aquaphor blends petrolatum with additional emollients like panthenol and glycerin, so it feels less greasy and does more to condition healing skin. Because it's fragrance-free and preservative-conscious, it suits people with eczema-prone or easily irritated skin, and it's gentle enough for everyday use.

These ointments pair well with the rest of your routine. Explore more options in our Lotions & Moisturizers collection, or browse the broader Skin Care category for cleansers, barrier creams, and protective solutions for dry and compromised skin.
