Original Vaseline Petroleum Jelly moisturizer has many uses, including personal care, baby care and beauty. Vaseline Petroleum Jelly penetrates into surface skin layers and locks in moisture to create a protective barrier. By sealing in moisture, it assists the skins natural recovery to help dry skin heal. This can rejuvenate visibly dry skin and help reduce the appearance of fine, dry lines. Vaseline Petroleum Jelly can also be applied around nostrils during pollen season, to block pollen from entering the nasal cavity and causing allergy symptoms.
