Vaseline

Vaseline

I love Vaseline. I have been using this wonderful beauty product ever since I was a small girl. Vaseline is known to help soothe wrinkles and fine lines on your face. My mother has told me this in the past. I even heard that Tyra Bank’s mother tells her that Vaseline does work wonders on your face. Who is the creator of the famous Vaseline petroleum jelly? What makes Vaseline a wonderful beauty care product?

Vaseline was created in the 1870's by a chemist named Robert Augustus Chesebrough. Realizing that petroleum-based products may be a future fuel source for humans, the young chemist created rod wax. Rod wax was a type of residue substance that came from oil rig pumps. Remarkably, Chesebrough created a product for consumers that would be able to use it for medicine and body care…..Vaseline. With this brilliant beauty product sold in stores worldwide, Vaseline has been made a quality trademark beauty brand.

Why not try a jar of Vaseline petroleum jelly? It comes in small and big jar sizes. A small jar ranges about $2 and a big size $4. You can purchase Vaseline at any local neighborhood drugstore. Vaseline is also sold as body care lotions and creams as well. Vaseline is great to apply all over your skin, but pay close attention to areas needing extra care- back of elbows, heels, knees, and lips. If you love cocoa butter, Vaseline also comes in cocoa butter lotion. The Vaseline body care products are very light-scented, gentle, and hypo-allergenic free. This is a great product for most skin types. It’s also a very light-weighted formula, so you won’t feel any bit of rich, heavy cream lingering on your skin.

Vaseline petroleum jelly helps seal and lock in moisture onto your skin’s surface revealing beautiful, soft skin. I have used Vaseline jelly to remove make-up and it works great. Not only are you removing make-up off your face, but the Vaseline jelly is moisturizing your skin as well. It works amazingly well. Adding Vaseline with your favorite moisturizing cream works great for your face and body too. This is a wonderful product to use for everyday skincare.

The healthy benefits of using Vaseline jelly include:

  • Great to use for a First-Aid kit ointment for cuts, burns, and scrapes.
  • Moisturizes chapped lips and dryness.
  • Softens your skin.
  • Great make-up remover.
  • Helps with split ends by applying a thin layer at your ends. (Saves you a trip to the salon)
