Vaseline Original 20ml
What is Vaseline?
Vaseline Original is a multipurpose skin protectant made from 100% pure white petroleum jelly. It forms a protective barrier over the skin to help seal in moisture and support healing. Vaseline is widely used to soothe dry or chapped skin, cracked heels, minor cuts, and windburn. It is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and gentle enough for all ages — including babies.
How does it work?
Vaseline works by creating a breathable, water-repellent barrier on the surface of the skin. This helps prevent moisture loss, protects sensitive or damaged skin, and supports natural healing. It does not contain any active medicinal ingredients, but its occlusive action helps relieve irritation and dryness while shielding the skin from external irritants.
How to use Vaseline
- Apply a thin layer directly to clean, dry skin
- Use as often as needed on dry areas such as lips, hands, feet, elbows, or face
- For extra hydration, apply after bathing or before bed
- Suitable for use on minor cuts, grazes, or nappy rash
Who can use Vaseline?
Vaseline is safe for adults, children, and infants. It is ideal for those with dry, cracked, or sensitive skin, and is often recommended by dermatologists for people with eczema or conditions that cause excessive skin dryness. It is also suitable for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Warnings and precautions
- For external use only — do not apply inside the nose or mouth
- Do not use on deep wounds or infected skin without medical advice
- Avoid contact with eyes
- Keep out of reach of children
