Vaseline Petroleum Jelly is a classic treatment for dry, flaky, or chapped skin. Nonmedicated and moisturizing, you can apply the product topically to take advantage of the blend of mineral oils, paraffin, and microcrystalline waxes, ideal for soothing the skin and locking in natural moisture. This carbolated jelly has skin-softening properties and acts as a direct barrier to the outside world - ideal for repelling the environmental stressors that can do so much damage to your complexion. Equally useful for dry hands as for chapped lips, the hydration properties improve skin texture and feel as well as reducing soreness and itching. A must-have essential in any home, this product is used extensively to soothe minor skin complaints.
