Foille Medicated First-Aid Ointment Tube, 1 Ounce

Best ointment I've ever used. I accidentally poured a pan of bacon grease on my hand, fresh off the stove, while on vacation. We knew there was a first aid kit in our newly purchased used vehicle. My husband ran to the car to see if there was anything in the kit to assist me. He found this ointment. The burn never scarred or blistered. We now put this ointment on everything! Cuts, burns, scrapes, bug bites. Clears up everything right away and prevents infection. I keep multiple tube's everywhere in the house (kids, ya know).

I first used this as a kid 50-some years ago when I burned myself with bacon grease. I was at a friend’s house and they gave me this ointment to use and it was like magic! It took the pain away and healed my skin seemingly overnight. So glad they still make this stuff. I keep a tube or two around for emergencies and it hasn’t let me down yet!

My grandmother found this product when a pressure cooker blew hot steam into her face and she had extreme burns. She suffered no scars and healed well and quickly while using Foille. We STILL find it the best burn medication ever! Even works for sunburns and oven or oil burns. I try to never be without it and have given away several tubes to friends. For awhile, I thought it was no longer available, and was happy to find it again!

Good for cuts, scrapes, and burns!

Family and friends have been using this product since the mid 60s. Scoutmasters would carry it in their pockets for all of the cuts and burns that little boys get. I have recently used it on sunburns which take a bright red pigment down to a tan color overnight. it has actual pain relief unlike competitive brands.In my opinion this is a must have for any first aid kit, bathroom cabinet, or even in your office at work.

I recently ran across an old, very small, nearly empty tube of this in a travel toiletry bag I seldom use (since I seldom travel). Somehow I had forgotten about this product and had gotten into the habit of using others. Never again.I found it here and ordered it - and rediscovered why I used it so many years ago. This stuff is great -- not only for wounds, but for insect bites. Just a few minutes before sitting down to write this, I applied a little Foille's to a bite on my forearm that is about ½" across and was itching like _crazy_. Oh -- and when I say "a little," I do mean a little. I squeezed out a dot probably about the size of the head of a hat pin and it was more than I needed A little bit of this goes a long way. So, while a 1-ounce tube might not seem like much at first glance, believe me, it is enough for a lot of applications. Honestly, I expect this tube to last me a couple of years, bare minimum. It might last 5 or 10. As for today's results, minutes after applying it to the bite, itch gone. It is not odorless, which some people prefer, but I rather like the smell -- not only because I find it pleasant, but it reminds me that the Foille is still at work.Besides the product itself, I also like the packaging. It is the old-fashioned metal tube. I'm sure it's more expensive to make than the cheap plastic tubes everyone else has gone to. What's so great about the metal tube? You can see at a glance how much product is left in the tube. As you use the product by squeezing it out, the part you squeezed out remains flat. Also, you can roll it up from the bottom as you squeeze it, which makes it easier to be sure you're getting everything that you paid for. Kudos to Foille for keeping the customer first.For whatever reasons, so very many great products fall victim to savvy advertising by clever competitors with inferior products. I'm glad to see Foille has survived. I might go ahead and order a couple more tubes (which would probably be a lifetime supply), just in case...

i liked this product but it has all of a sudden almost doubled in price. Do not like it that much will not continue purchasing

Very economical and works as it should
