Love love ❤️❤️❤️
Love this product. Use it all over but the difference in skin on my legs is just amazing. So soft and silky.
Report this reviewOintment
I originally purchased the calendula and oat cream online for my 6 year old son who has eczema and this really helped soften his skin. I wanted to go and buy more to keep in the cupboard so went to my local nyr store where I was about to purchase the same cream again when the representative told me to try the ointment instead and said it worked wonders so I purchased 3 tubs of this and when I put it on my son he was itchy all over and had a very rough night sleep so I will not be using this again and I will stick to the one I originally purchased its just a shame as I do alot of shopping with nyr and this was a let down.
Report this reviewUnfortunately, I developed a rash using it
This, and the face and body lotion in the same range, unfortunately give me a rash and itchy, hot spots. I am not sure what ingredient is doing this, so it isn't allergy-free for me, I am afraid. It is a shame as I love the hair and body wash and was hoping to compliment it with a frangance-free lotion and cream
Report this reviewwhyever is basic ointment out of stock?
Such a basic ingredient, now out of stock? How can this be? It remains the basis for so many other Neal Yard moisturising products. Surely the new marketing idea is not to force customers to buy those added value products instead?
Report this reviewExcellent and luxurious cream
Ordered this as I like unscented products and it has exceeded expectations. Very rich and moisturising on dry cracked chapped hands, brilliant as face and body moisturiser too, and hasn't irritated my skin. Have even used it as lip salve. Love it!
Report this reviewBest cream
This ointment is the best I have found, I suffer from eczema and nothing else has worked to sooth my cracked hands. This cream brings so much relief and healing for my split, itching and dry skin, it's my go to cream especially at the moment when we are all washing our hands so much.
Report this reviewMakes a fabulous hand cream!
I actually use this as a really nourishing, replenishing hand cream that sinks in well and doesn't leave the skin sticky or oily. Makes the skin on my hands so soft and smooth. Simple and amazing!
Report this reviewPlease never stop making this
I have suffered with dermatitis on my skin for years and been using hydrocortizone cream on and off to try to manage it. This Create Your Own Ointment is the first cream I have ever found which completely gets rid of any itchiness or redness! I use it on my face every morning after washing and my skin feels amazing for the rest of the day. I also use Create Hand and Body Lotion for my body and am equally thrilled with that. I am now about to buy Create Bath Oil and Hair and Create Body Wash to complete my set. Please, NYR, never stop making this range.
Report this reviewA fantastic product
I've been using this ointment for about a year now. It's quite thick but it feels great on the skin. Fantastic for face and body. Super handy on work trips. I'm a big fan and this has become an absolute staple in my bathroom cabinet.
Report this reviewCreate Your Own Ointment
Both my husband and I share the lovely pot of cream from the create your own dispensary. It's for dry, flakey skin and it works. It's great something can just be made up for you and I love the ethos behind the brand. I won't use anything tested on animals and this feels like a luxurious product that won't hurt another living creature.**From a recent survey**
