Skin Lube Lubricating Ointment can be used to prevent chafing and abrasions in areas where friction usually occurs. This can be on the soles of the feet and on the hands and fingers. Skin Lube has a higher melting point than petroleum jelly; thus it stays solid at higher temperatures. This ointment can be applied to the tips of scissors and tape cutters to make cutting effortless or can be applied on top of tape to make it easier to remove. Skin Lube Lubricating Ointment can also be used to prevent blisters from forming on hands and feet. It provides long-lasting protection because it doesn't rub off, so apply it generously on friction-prone areas to get the protection you want and need.
