I've used it once on my mosquito bite, and then the bite got swollen and super itchy. Maybe I'm allergic to this product?

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! It cured minor cuts quickly. I am addictive to the smell of it too! I had been waiting so that I could get a bruise somehow to try it again, then I got one last week (I even did not know how I got it, it was on top of my knee, a bittle over a quarter size)...then I applied it right away when I saw it, I would say it healed it much quicker than what takes for the skin to heal naturally.

This is an awesome product! I had to try it for myself to believe it. I recently neglected to put sunblock on the very tops of my ears. After working in the yard for eight hours I had a horrible sunburn, and my ears looked awful. They began to peel immediately. I remembered this product, and decided to give it a try. After just two applications the skin on my ears was 80% better, and by the second day 95% better. I'd highly recommend this product, and am so glad I swapped for it! Lol, the picture of Doctor Burt is a little creepy to me, but that's just me being silly. :)

This stuff is great when you have a cold, and your nose is sore. It's very soothing, and prevents the "after-cold peelies"!

I never would have tried this product if it weren't for all the raves here on MUA, so thank you, ladies!! This stuff is really awesome, and it's a bargain too! It's great for cuts, scrapes, bruises, etc. I had a small patch of eczema on my hand that had really gotten out of control, and it was cracked, oozing, etc. I put a huge glod ob this stuff on and covered it with a bandage, and in just one days time the cracks had healed up and the itching had gone away. Smells like lavender too, which is lovely. Will DEFINITELY repurchase!

I decided to get this because I do a full-contact sport where I frequently get bruises. I've noticed that the bruises I've gotten go away quicker when I use this product twice a day. I also used this on a cat scratch, and it went away really quickly as well. Great product, and I will repurchase when this tin is empty.

This stuff actually makes mosquito bites itch less. I live on an island. We have mosquitoes year round. This stuff is a god send. Not too bad for cat scratches, "clumsy dummy" marks, or other little ouchies either.

The reviews on this product intrigued me enough to buy this. At first I wasn't sure what exactly to do with this product, I wanted to use it on something to see if it worked. Well, I got a cat scratch, about 2 inches long on my neck area (not the most attractive thing), so I used this product. HUGE RAVE...I only used this for about 3 days, twice a day. My scratch was gone after just 3 days with no visible scar left over. I would highly recommend this!



UPDATE 1/17/07: So a couple of days ago I had a small bruise and Res-Q ointment is supposed to work on bruises, so I gave it a go. Well the next day it was nearly gone. Usually when I get bruises they stick around for a week or more. An ointment getting rid of a bruise??...it's unheard of. It seems too good to be true. I will update as more experiences occur.

I swear by this product and it is always in my purse! Very compact and clean and lasts quite a long time! It is great for basically anything- scrapes, burns, cuts, bruises, allergy spots, bug bites. I also use it when I'm on stage acting in the theater or I use it when I'm feeling PMSy or panicky. I rub some Res-Q under my nose and near my nostrals to remind me to breathe in deep--it has a lovely and calming (but not overpowering) lavendar smell. It is very moisturizing as well. It is also great to use as a rub for your feet or cuticles during long car rides.

This product is amazing!! I bruise very easily and have a huge bruise on my arm. This morning the bruise was a dark brown/red/purple. I applied it twice today (kinda thick) and now the bruise is about 70% better! I can not believe it! It easily sped up the healing process by 3 days.
It's also great for bug bites and little scrapes. The smell is not medicinal, it's fresh and soothing. I will definitely buy this again!

Oh my goodness. This is the best-all-around cure for any minor ouchies. It works wonders, especially for bug bites. I take this everywhere. It's totally amazing.

Love this product. I've been using it for about 9 months. When my son gets bug bites he BLOWS UP from them and they last forever. He must be allergic. I tried putting this on them last spring as soon as he got the bite and within a 1/2 hour they were almost invisible and by morning, almost completely gone, amazing. Saves my poor guy from itching to death from terrible bug bites. It's also good on wounds. Very healing, we will never be without this little miracle in a tin.

I get mosquito bites quite frequently, and thus, have tried probably every anti-itch cream on the planet. I was kind of skeptical of this one since those traditional minty Asian kinds work the best for me (the best is this Indonesian one in a green tin with pagodas on it) but I tried this anyway. It has a balm-like consistency and I'm not terribly fond of the smell but it does get the job done. I haven't tried this for eczema or burns or rashes, but it does kill the itch from bug bites quite efficiently. The tin can be annoying, but overal it's a product that performs well enough. I would buy this in a pinch if I was stranded in the US with no access to my lovely pepperminty Indonesian balm, but otherwise, I've already found my HG of anti itch ointments.

I agree with the other reviewers - this stuff really works. I had a small itchy rash on my leg that didn't even heal with prescribed medication, but this got rid of it

Not only did this help a serious rash on my legs clear up quickly, it's one of the few things my hubby will put on his eczema that actually works.

This is a life saver for me. Each time I go to Asia and sometimes during hot summers in L.A., I have these red little bumps on my legs. They are red and itch as hell. I've tried everything I could think of on them and nothing helped. Each of them would itch for 4 to 5 days and the redness would last longer.

Anyway, my aunt introduced me the cream last week when I was in Asia. And guess what.. They really work!! To me I willing to pay $100 for a pot easily than suffering from the itchness. I love my aunt and I love this cream. I am buying one for all the family and close friends.

I'm not a big fan of Burt's Bees stuff but my cousin introduced me to this Res-Q Ointment and I'm hooked. I use it for everthing and everywhere. I don't have any miracle stories about how it saved the day but I do like it, find it soothing and it smells terrific. It's a staple in my bag. *edited* I changing the rating from 4 to 2 stars. It's a nice balm but not essential. Won't repurchase.

This ointment is amazing! I'll buy it in tons :)
It coped with my cracked lips! Smells and feels so good and is all-natural. Everyone should have it - even if it doesn't help you at least it doesn't cause any harm!
