For Dry Skin "I used the Gold Bond Ultimate Healing product, and I got a rash and itching to the point of bleeding on my hands, arms, chest, neck, and face. It was a terrible reaction to the product. My 103 yr. old mother used it and experienced similar reactions to it. After the reaction, I immediately washed it off my mother and me. She healed after about a week, and it's taken over a month for my skin to heal. I couldn't go out and socialize with friends because I looked terrible. But my hands and arms are sensitive, and my hands and arms are no longer sensitive. I can no longer wash dishes with dish soap without them getting itchy. The skin on my hands looks rough, and the texture is not the same as it was before I used GB lotion. I've never had a reaction to lotions and creams before using the Gold Bond."

For Dry Skin "Omg, I used this Gold Bond Ultimate Healing and had the worst experience ever. My entire body felt like it was on fire, the itching was at 10+. It took me a few days to figure out what was going on, as I was actually using this lotion to stop the itch, not realizing that this was the cause. I found out when I was trying to moisturize my feet, and they flared up to a 10 immediately. Also, I cannot do my dishes, as my hands are extremely sensitive. So disappointed with this product."

For Dry Skin "I have been using Gold Bond Ultra cream for feet at night, and almost every night my feet would start itching within minutes of applying to feet quite often. I kept thinking my feet were just so dry that’s why they would itch at night. I can't believe it took me a while before I started suspecting it was the lotion causing me to itch my feet raw at night because it’s supposed to be hypoallergenic and moisturize dry feet. Something in it is causing the problem, and I’m not sure which ingredient, but I am not using it any longer."
