Bag Balm

Bag Balm Logo Bag balm was originally sold to dairy farmers, for use on the cow's udders. This balm protects against cracks, burns, and other minor injuries to your hands. It keeps hands supple,soft, and "udderly" smooth. =] The packaging has been the same for over 100 years, and the same goes for the formula! It can be bought anywhere, and fairly inexpensively. A little goes a long way.

  Bag Balm - Saved my baby's bottom!

Saved my baby's bottom!

My daughter recently started teething. As soon as her first tooth started coming through she got horrible diaper rash. Her poor little bottom was beet red, blistered and was actually bleeding in certain spots. I tried every product in the store, home remedies, and then the Dr. prescribed a mixture of desitin and hydrocortizone. That seemed to burn her even more. Finally my sister-in-law's sister gave me a tin of Bag Balm. I had never heard of it, but she said her son used to get bad diaper rash and this was the only thing that worked. It was like a miracle. She didn't even cry when we put it on. We slathered it on at night after her bath, and in the morning it was like she never had diaper rash. It's a bit thick and greasy feeling, but boy does it work. The tin is huge and it lasts forever. I've even started using it on my elbows and feet for very dry skin with great results. view more

  Bag Balm - Bag Balm

Bag Balm

Bag Balm was a savor when it came to diaper rashes. I used it all the time when my kids had bad cases. It really calmed things and made my kids feel better. The rash seemed to heal pretty quick. It is also good for chapped lips. This is a safe product to use on my kids. They have sensitive skin and this was one product that worked for them. view more

This product is a God send. I love how wonderfully it works to keep my lips from chapping and my skin from drying. I use this product year around twenty-four seven. Not because I have to but because I want too. It's a miracle product and should be used for everything. view more

  Bag Balm - Best for diaper rash

Best for diaper rash

I heard about using Bag Balm online when my baby started to show signs of diaper rash. It is odor free and seems to work better than any other diaper rash cream on the market that I have used. I would recommend this to anyone with a small child. She is now 17 months old and has not had one diaper rash. Best price I have found is at Target. view more

  Bag Balm - Good all-around balm

Good all-around balm

Bag balm is something no household should be without. I became familiar with it because we used it in the hospital on incontinent patients to protect their skin. I used it on both my children when they had a diaper rash. At the first sign of any redness, I would apply. Bag Balm kept my kids bottoms rash-free. It is amazing stuff. Once, we were camping and far away from any services. I badly burned my lower leg. I needed something to keep a dressing from sticking to my leg. I had Bag Balm along as m son was in diapers. I applied it over the burn, and used it for severals days. That burn, which was relatively bad, healed within a matter of days, and left NO scar!! I was shocked. view more

  Bag Balm - Great multi-use product!

Great multi-use product!

Bag balm is so handy to have around! We use it on chapped lips, scrapes, burns, as an overnight treatment to soften hands and feet, and on our three dogs. It doesn't smell glamorous, but it is much more economical than antibiotic ointments for our family. view more

Mom's secret weapon

This is a great multitasker! I always have it around my house. It is great for dry skin, scrapes and even chapped lips. My kids laugh at me for having it around but as soon as they moved off to college they were asking me to send them some of their own. view more

  Bag Balm - Everytime!

Everytime!

This winter I've had a lot of dryness in my nose. The skin splits and the pain is unbelievable. I've been hesitant to use an antibiotic ointment (don't want to overuse them...) but Bag balm helped so much! Cleared up the sores in 2 nights, and I've been applying nightly with no recuurance. view more

  Bag Balm - Always works

Always works

sometimes (often) the old remedies are the best! This winter I have suffered with really dry skin on my hands, especially my knuckles. Before bed I started slathering on this stuff and sleeping in socks (on my hands) worked almost instantly! Within 2 days, much better! view more

The cure-all!

Our family has used Bag Balm for as long as you can remember... the cure-all for chapped ANYTHING! It's thicker than Vaseline and stays put better. I use it on my lips and heels the most; a definite must during the dry winter months on Illinois. view more

  Bag Balm - Greasy delight

Greasy delight

Having just moved from Vancouver (perfectly moist, wonderfully perfect humidity) to Calgary (cold as sin, dry as an oven). What's curious is that I put some on before bed, wrapped my shins in Saran-wrap (so it wouldn't transfer to my sheets) and when I peeled off the wrap in the morning, there was still bag-balm sitting on my skin. I wonder if that means my skin was hydrated enough and didn't want anymore, or if it just wasn't an effective product for absorption. Will re-test and report. view more
