I ❤️ Sudocrem

[CandidFruit]

Anyone else believe in the magical properties of this tub of wondrous gloop?

In our family it’s known as a fix all for everything.

Got a spot, mossie bite or limb hanging off?
A bad case of chub rub or sore bottom?
Need to re plaster the hallway?

Sudocrem is your answer!

My DCs laugh at how often I direct them to it, whatever their complaint.
(It’s either sudocrem, or duct tape as a solution in our house 😆)

What other uses are there for this wonder product?

I have an itchy dog, works wonders if she's itched herself raw, obviously I wouldn't put it anywhere she can lick it off!

It's great on sunburn!

If in doubt, I slap some Sudocrem on - works wonders.

I used to slather it on everything. Any time DC complained about something I would say ‘I’ll put some cream on it’.
They once turned to me when a tween and said ‘cream can’t fix everything mum’ 😂

I like that their Twitter account is 98% them saying "Sudacrem is not medicine" or whatever to people saying how wonderful it is.

They have a Twitter account - I'll have to check that out

I use it on sore, dry hands which I get from work - cover the skin with sudacrem just before bed, then wrap a hankie around my hands. Hands are so much better in the morning - complete magic!

It is magical stuff!

Oh yes! Marvelous stuff

I do a sudocream face mask once a week after I read on here that someone did that. My skin is great the next day.

Oh yes. It's great on spots.
I also use it around my finger nails as I have the terrible habit of chewing the skin. If I've had a biting session it's the best thing to heal it quickly.

yep used it since i was a baby and have used on all my kids, teens use it on their acne, baby uses it on his bum and occasionally eats half a tub and smothers it in his hair and all over the house. (just turned 2 hoping he will go off it)

@hangingonfordearlife1 😂 I just came to say who on here hasn’t had a toddler smother themselves with it, and is weaned on the stuff?
I remember having to degrease DC3 with another household stalwart - fairy liquid 😆

It’s also used for preventing frostbite on the chickens combs 🐔 (the red wobbly bit on top of their heads) according to MiL!

Eugh no. Smells horrible and is all greasy and gross. Not a fan.

metanium however - now that IS a magic substance.

It is truly magical stuff

It's great for everything

I'm exactly the same, it's a universal cure for all ailments! In our house it's "oh you've broken your arm, have some Sudocrem"

Stopped working on my sons nappy rash. However sudocrem was magic. Smells lush

Love love love it.

Love it! Had an infected csection would - two lots of antibiotics did nothing. Slathered it in sudacrem and sorted it out in no time!

Yep. Used for pretty much all ailments. We used to keep a pot at the stables for the horse as well.

Maybe they have changed the formula! Last tried it 14 years ago so I may be out of date.

I also have bad associations with it, which might colour my thinking - as a care assistant 30 years ago I had to smear it all over someone’s infected legs on a daily basis, which put me off the stuff!

Same in our house. All you need in life is a tub of Sudacrem and a roll of gaffa tape. There's nothing you wouldn't be able to sort out.

Did you know it smells like lavender? Once you've smelt it you can't unsmell it.

metanium !!! This is amazing on bad nappy rash - just incredible for clearing it up over night ! I didn’t both with sudocream after that discovery!

In the past week I’ve used our pot of sudocrem on the dogs spay wound and my foot after I stepped on a spiky twig (that the dog had brought in).
There are few things that have not had sudocrem on.
