Ohhh! Thank you so much Triniare!
Let me introduce to you MooGoo, a natural skin care for sensitive skin, psoriasis, eczema and infants.. made in Australia/
What is MooGoo?
MooGoo started when they made a moisturizing cream for humans based on the udder cream used in dairy farms. This dairy version of the udder cream was designed to heal the skin on cow's udders and keep them in good condition for milking. It became legendary of its skin healing properties with humans too, especialy for eczema and psoriasis. However, the orginal dairy version was greasy. No problem for cows, but not so comfortable for humans.
Their first cream was a non greasy version of this Udder Cream specially made for humans. Since then MooGoo has expandeed to make other products that help the skin and scalp without the gimmicks or cheap ingredients. Every product was originally made of for their own use or for friends, so they put in the full concentration of ingredients that they know will be good for their skin.
Ok let me read out the ingredients and directions for use as stated on the packaging.:
Udder Cream: "Directions for use: Wash udder and teat parts thoroughly before each milking to avoid contamination of milk. Apply udder cream to the udder after each milking, massaging in the skin. For teat cracks, apply suficient quantity to fill crack and sorrounding area. As an aid in softening swollen udders during calving, apply liberally twice daily with gentle massage. May be used for dry ar cafedskin and as an aid in keeping skin soft and supple."
"Ingredients: Purified water, sweet almond oil, olive oil, rice bran oil, emulsifying wax, milk protein, allantoin (comfrey root active), aloe vera, vitamin E, phenoxyethanol, piroctone olamine, guarsilk. Free of mineral oil and fragrance."
At first reading, I was a bit surprised and puzzled... are they (the manufacturers) talking about cows or humans? and udders?? that's the cows teats right?? heheehe... what funny descriptions!! but I guess it must meant for dry and broken "human" skin.. anybody in their right mind wouldnt be purchasing a cream for the cows uddders... heck, I dont even know anybody who keeps cows.. hahaha...!!

Anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, and wound healing balm. Direction for use: apply cream topicallt as required to keep skin moist and healthy.
