5 out of 5 Vaniply
Stephanie –
This is the best ointment for my son who suffers from eczema! Wish the 13oz was available again. We use so much vaniply that it is costing a lot more to buy the smaller size.

5 out of 5 Vaniply
Larry –
Since our daughter started using Vaniply several years ago for atopic dermatitis, it is the only product that doesn’t “burn”. We have tried many many other ointments and creams. She is 16 and goes through a tube about every 2 weeks. Please email us when the 13 oz tub is available again. Thank you.

Can this be used as lip protectant, i.e. CHAPSTICK, as noted on your product use list? I need a safe chapstick, like your other products…not sure the Lip Protectant with Sunscreen is what I want, with all its added ingredients…can any of your lotions or creams be safely used on lips? REALLY need just a plain, safe chapstick…ready to order, which I had asked sooner!

Stephanie –
My son suffers from severe atopic dermatitis. Vaniply is the only thing that didn’t contain ingredients that my son is allergic to. We used a lot of prescription ointments but the vaniply is used multiple times a day and with our daily wet wraps. We currently use 1-3 tubes of vaniply daily. We spend hundreds of dollars a month on vaniply and since it is over the counter our insurance won’t cover the cost of it. I can not even begin to express the disappointment/frustration I have for the manufacturer. I almost feel like it is now more of a game to make more money off the people who buy vaniply. I have called, emailed, and followed the newsletters for updates. The customer service is never anything but extremely vague as to when the bigger size will be back on the market.

5 out of 5 The best ointment for eczema
Chuck –
This is the best product I have found for our 7 year old with eczema. It keeps her skin hydrated and does not make a mess like some of the other ointments. I only wish they would start making the 13 oz jars again. The 2.5 tubes don’t last long and all the extra plastic containers is not good for our environment.

Please Please PLEASE let us know when your 13 oz jars will be available again. I cannot justify spending the amount of money it costs on a 2.5 tube and I have always purchased the 13 oz jars. I have been raving about this product to my mother who has been looking for an alternative to petroleum jelly for quite some time and now I can’t even purchase any in my usual size for myself. I am really hoping you’re able to resolve the issue with the packaging soon since it seems it’s been months now that this size has been off the market. Even if you had to go with a different vendor that provides the packaging, I doubt us consumers would really care just so long as we can obtain it in any style 13 oz jar.

5 out of 5 Great post-procedure ointment!
Patti –
I have rosacea and part of my care is laser treatments. The Vaniply is very soothing post-procedure. It’s the only thing my skin will tolerate and creates a nice protective barrier. The texture is nice and smooth and it spreads easily. Since developing rosacea Vanicream products are the only ones I have found that don’t make my skin burn or itch. I’m so glad I found them.

Bethany –
My daughter is 7 months old and has moderate atopic eczema. She scratches her like legs until they bleed and has gotten some spots on her cheeks. We use aquafor twice a day but I am thinking of switching to vanicream or vaniply. Is it safe to put on her face that she might get into her mouth? Does it soak in fast ?

Bethany, Vaniply is a non-greasy, long-lasting ointment that spreads easily and smoothly and is quickly absorbed by the skin. Vaniply is safe for use on the face and will not clog pores.

Rita –
My daughter has eczema for 4 years. We have been tried at least 15 different ointments, creams (with and w/o steroids), oils etc…diet change, change everything around us. Nothing helped. The 4th dermatologist we have been seen 3 weeks ago recommended this brand and I was ok, another cream. I applied twice a day in the first week and WOW, this cream is a MIRACLE! My daughter’s eczema is gone! Completely gone, her skin cleared out and looks like never before!!! I also started to use it on my face and my dry spots are gone too. Feels/looks very soft and velvety. LOVE it!

5 out of 5 Best product ever for eczema
B Chavez –
My daughter has suffered from moderate to severe eczema since she was 3 months old. She is now 14 and every since we started using vaniply she has had great success with her skin. Not sure why the 13oz tubs are not available but we use this product to cover her body each night and it does not make sense to buy the small tubes. Please, please, please bring back the large tubs!! I’ve told so many others about this product and it has helped them as well. Know it would be well worth it to sell in larger quantities!!

1 out of 5 Why so long on the 13 oz?
Susan –
It’s frustrating that the repackaging of the 13 oz is taking so long. This product is very helpful for so many people. Is this delay for force consumers into purchasing a smaller more expensive size? Is the repackaging about increasing products on this item? It’s frustrating and concerning to me and so many others that rely on this product.

5 out of 5 Perfect for my entire face!
Amanda –
I love this product, perfect for those with sensitive and dry skin. My face is extremely dry and I like to dap some of this ointment on dry spots. I can also use as a lip balm. In the summertime when I need something a little lighter for a moisturizer, I like to mix this ointment with the Vanicream.
Please produce more of the Vaniply in the 13 oz tub!!! Everywhere I look, it seems to be out of stock.

5 out of 5 Excellent Ointment!!
Angie Bailey –
My son began suffering from severe eczema when he was about 15 months old. We tried EVERYTHING and nothing relieved his poor skin, most “sensitive” products actually made him worse, and then his dermatologist suggested Vanicream Moisturizer with Vaniply on top. This combo is the only non-steroidal moisturizer that stops flairs and keeps his baby skin feeling baby soft.

I’ve run four Rock Steady Running races (2 Moose Mountain marathons, the Spring Superior 25K, and the Zumbro 17-Mile) and this wonder product has always been in the race swag bags. It is, hands down, the best product I’ve ever used for chaffing and chapped lips.

So much better than aquaphor after CO2 laser resurfacing. I hate ointment on my face, but after CO2 procedures, it is a necessary evil. Last time I used aquaphor and was miserable. I’m not going to say I love the feel of Vaniply, but it is so much lighter than aquaphor. My dermatologist gave me this because I broke out so badly after using aquaphor. I have high hopes. It is just as good at keeping my skin hydrated. I wish more sites carried Vaniply. Cancers is pretty easy to find.

5 out of 5 Vaniply, and all other vanicream products.
Amber –
My son has a form of Eczema. After trying many products recommended by his doctor and not seeing relief or improvement. We were introduced to Vaniply, this product has cleared up all his problem areas. His main area was his face. We use Vanicream lotions on the rest of his body. As well as Vanicream soap. He has stayed cleared up. These products have made a world of difference for our eight year old. So, much so no one uses any other lotions or soaps in our home now. Thanks VaniCream!

Trudy – If your friend is looking for a cream, we would recommend Vanicream Skin Cream. If your friend has sensitive skin, it is important to purchase products that are free of common chemical irritants. There are some differences between lotion, creams, and ointments.

5 out of 5 A godsend
Angela –
my baby girl has eczema. This is the ONLY – ONLY ONLY ONLY – thing that helps her!!! The only thing is, it’s next to impossible to find!!! It’s heartbreaking because I spend HOURS per week searching and searching, checking and rechecking stores to see if they’ve stocked it. Now, I have the cosmetics girl at Walgreen’s trying to pull them and save them for me before they sell out. The local clinics and pharmacies all tell me they never get enough from the suppliers and that they can’t keep up. The demand is def there. Would love to be able to buy the large tub again. Heck, would love to be able to buy any of it easily, but when you have to coat a child head to toe in it twice daily, 2.5 oz ain’t getting you far and I’m back to chasing after it. i have to, and I will, because without it my poor babies skin is just awful:(

5 out of 5 Miracle Product for Us!
Danielle –
About a year ago, my then 18 month- old son was diagnosed with a very rare skin disorder called erythrokeratodermia variabilis (EKV). Basically this causes him to develop patches of thickened skin that are red and scaly. Since then, we’ve used both vanicream and vaniply in his daily skin regimen and it has made a world of difference! These products have helped to keep his skin moisturizer and smooth and now his “spots” are barely noticeable. We usually purchase the 13 oz tub and go through them pretty quickly as we apply it to my son’s whole body twice a day. Very disappointed to see that size is not available. Is this temporary or will you no longer making it in that size?

In terms of replacement for the larger Vaniply size, is the company going to permanently downsize the size? I would hope not….this stuff works really great and I can’t see any reason to only produce this product in the smaller size. I’m really hoping the larger size will be available soon. I only recently discovered this product in the last year and it has been working fantastic with my eczema.
