What is Vaseline Pure Petroleum Jelly Original?

Vaseline Jelly is the original skin treatment that has been around since 1872. It is made from petrolatum jelly, which is used as a skin moisturiser and also for hair grooming. It was once used as a sun cream in rat survival kits during World War 2. Today, it is used to treat dry, cracked skin and also on minor cuts and burns for relief.

AWhat is the cause of dry skin?

Dry skin occurs when the skin’s natural protective barrier becomes damaged and as a result, it can become irritated. Causes of dry skin can include external and internal triggers. External triggers for dry skin include:

  • Hot or cold weather
  • Central heating or air conditioning
  • UV sunlight
  • Very hot water
  • Chlorine in swimming pools
  • Washing the skin too often

Some internal causes of dry skin include:

  • Ageing
  • Hormone changes
  • Diet

Not all causes of dry skin can be controlled. Therefore, it is important that the right treatment is used.
