 Great overnight healing |
| Review Date: June 28, 2004 |
| Reviewer: Jason L McComb, Lancaster, CA United States |
| I have been using this salve for years. When the skin on my fingers splits from dryness, or when I have a small cut, I use a little at bedtime and 95% of the time, by morning, the nuisance is gone! The other 5% of the time it is gone by the next day. It is also very good for dry skin or when working in the yard and your fingers get tore up. I even use it after laying cement to soothe the skin. There is nothing like it in the stores - I have tried! |
Great dry skin remedy

| When I was younger, I got large cracks in my feet from walking barefoot constantly during the summer. We had a dilapidated old tin of Watkins Petro Carbo Salve from long previous to me. My great-grandfather was a Watkins salesman, and as such we nicknamed the product "Grandpa's Salve". To this day, I've found nothing better. I've tried expensive products, cheap products, of which one has come distantly close (does that even make sense?) - a wax/oil concoction called Badger. Still, no cigar. I was surprised to find "Grandpa's Salve" still produced, and since I consider it rare, I ordered two tins - enough to last for years. |
cracked dry feet

I've had problems with my feet for over two years. I often showed my condition to a neighbor of mine whos occupation is a nurse. She also was looking for something to soften her heels. She bought a container of Petro-Carbo Salve and shared half the container with me. After buying prescription medicines worth $100.00 a tube I became frustrated and nothing was working. I had cracks on my heels, under my toes, on the sides of my feet and on the soft pads. It was impossible to walk my dog or wear dress shoes. I lived in hiker boots for two years. Looks great with a suit. I started using Petro-Carbo Salve both morning and night and with in a week felt the the moisture returning to my feet. In order to keep the cracks together I was using bandaids when I discovered duck tape that's when the healing started. The tape kept the sauve on and as I removed the tape at night a layer of the dry skin would come off on the tape. I've used the product for over a year, my condition is almost cleared and I'm enjoying wearing dress sandals and shoes once again. Thanks for a wonderful product I recommend it to any one suffering from cracked heels.
Have a great day and happy feet to all...... Sandra :0) |
Great Pain Reliever

| I have used this product for years. Not only does it promote fast healing, but it provides instant pain relief for those really painful cracks you get on your fingertips during cold and dry winters. Ever get a paper cut on your finger that throbs? Put some of this salve on it and cover it with a band-aid and you will be surprised at how quickly the pain goes away. A tin of this will last for years, unless you give some to all your relatives and friends when they complain of painful cuts and abrasions. |
does more than heal dry skin

| My daughter has athlete's foot. Somehow this had spread to her knuckle on her hand. I apologize if this grosses anyone out. My grandmother saw the sore on her hand, and made her put some watkins salve on it. My daughter showed me her hand 2 days later, and I cannot believe how much it has healed in so little time. I had her put some anti-fungal creme on it in the past, but it didn't work. And that very well may be because she wasn't diligent in applying it as she should. But this just shows again, how well the petro carbo works. I'm buying my own now so I don't have to borrow grandma's anymore. 1 other thing. My grandma has had this tin of salve for many many many years. We used it last week. |
