Ungvita Vitamin A Ointment Review

Great for cuts scraps and dry feet. Hate this smell of this every strong and not nice!.But as a ointment, super powerful and works a treat

The smelliest product that I just can't live without!

My father-in-law introduced me to Ungvita many years ago. I removed the cap from the tube and was instantly hit by the strong smell of fish. Fish certainly isn't my first choice of fragrances so I was very reluctant to try it, but he assured me that Ungvita was 'beyond amazing'.

He was absolutely right!

Cracked heels, dry skin, cuts, grazes.. you name it.. Ungvita WILL fix it. My 9 year old son doesn't mind the smell and he uses it when he has dry lips. It works a treat.

Although I will never ever wear this outside of the comfort of my house, I will also never be without it.

I just love this stinky (and really cheap) stuff!

This product is a pretrolium jelly type product. This cream is great for repairing and soothing dry and cracked skin or chaffed skin. It's especially great for treating eczema. It gentle and doesn't irritate your skin.

It has the texture of a really thick balm. Almost like pawpaw cream bit thicker. It's quite easy to smooth over your skin. However I find that it takes a while to absorb and soak into your skin. I usually put this on overnight, and if you're using it in your face you can cleanse your face after a couple of hours to remove the oily residue.

The packaging is a tube which is squeezy, a bit like a tooth paste tube. You can buy this from most pharmacies.

Overall this is a great product to treat super dry skin, especially eczema. However, it does leave a sticky feeling on your skin, so I think I will try to find an alternative (I've heard trilogy everything balm is great).

This comes in a tube with a screw top inside a standard box -not flash but this is not a beauty product but a practical ointment which is fit for purpose. The smell is yukky fishy but after you get used to it it is just a momentary dislike. The ointment is greasy but a little bit goes a ling way. I have very sensitive skin and this stops the ichiness and helps with eczema, dermatitis. If the kids get a scratch or bite it stops the pain and the tears soon stop. This is a must in the house if you have young children and at $11.50 is not expensive and is good for so many applications.

I have dermatitis on my fingers and it has its moments where it gets quite bad and painful, this cream is amazing and fixes it rite up with in a day or two. I use to only use cream from the doctors/ chemist until I decovered this and I won't go back to anything else.

It has a very interesting smell to it but I can deal with when this is so amazing ! The cream does leave a bit of a oily feel to your skin but that's kindnof to be expected with this kind of crea, even my stuff from the chemist use to feel oily. This is the type of cream that has so many uses and every house hold should have a tube of this.

This is a must have for our first aid kit! It has come to the rescue many times for various complaints but mostly for when I has dry cracked nipples from breastfeeding. I used it after I dried off to help with the sore cracked nipples I was left with. It smells a bit but once I got past that the results speak for themselves. I have used it on my cracked heals too from wearing heels most of the time. My heels as well as my nipples are now smooth and normal feeling yay for that!

I have used this on my son's eczema and we have found that his skin is less irritated and less itch so he is happier that he doesn't have to scratch and make himself bleed.

LIFESAVER!

This is one of those products that I can remember my mum always having around and still do now, I've always used this over rashes and burns and it works a treat. It leaves a little bit of a greasy residue, but it is to be expected. I'm not sure how to describe the smell, it's just one of those smells that can just be explained as 'ungvita', it's a little strong but I've never found it to be obtrusive.

Ok, tried to put my 2 fav uses for it in the title. 1. I'm a fair redhead AND I'm a farmer. Despite my best intentions, I tend to get badly sunburnt from time to time. This stuff is MAGIC! Ive had sunburn that is bad enough to be blistering, smother ugvita on it, wake up in the morning and the sunburn is GONE. Seriously, magic cure. 2. Its the best face treatment when you need moisture, especially if you use it after a shower and before bed. You'll wake up with baby fresh skin in the morning :) Sadly, it pongs a bit of fish so not the sort of thing you want to wear out and about, but I'll suffer through the slightly unpleasant smell for the results. Other tips, it a great lip balm. First aid wise, apply to hard scabs to help soften them to get them off.
