Original Protecting Jelly

4.0 • 5 Reviews

I understand Vaseline has been recommended by providers. I found myself itching with it instead of it helping. If I put this on my lips. My lips would itch. Vaseline unfortunately has petroleum which derived from petrol aka gasoline derivative so I’m staying away from that. Because what you apply to your skin you absorb into your body. There are good other alternatives out there!

As someone who picks at the skin around her fingernails, I find Vaseline helpful for when I want to quickly nourish my skin on my hands. The petroleum jelly is easy to scoop out of the container. I don't like how "goopy" it is, but that's what this product is. It's thick, sticky and yet will moisturize even the driest of skin. It also works well in conjunction with diaper creams for changing baby diapers.

While petroleum jelly is not the cleanest, it is effective. I like to use this as a lip balm and in liu of mascara in the summer months or when swimming. Just curl your lashes and put on some vaseline and you're good to go!

I love the versatility of Vaseline and use it for lots of things. I like to keep it in my purse just in case. I use it on my lips sometimes and occasionally on dry patches of skin. It's a really helpful product.

This will always be the gold standard for healing and protecting dry or flaky skin. Perfect for semi-sensitive areas like your nose or lips, it can be used just about anywhere. You can find it at most stores at a decent price, and it will last you a long time!
