What is Vaseline ?

Where is Vaseline used?
Vaseline is used in both pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. It is effective against dry skin, as a protective ointment, ointment base or as protection against the cold. It is also used in the production of milking fat and as wound protection for babies and small children. Vaseline has a wide range of applications due to its typical paraffin chemical properties such as hydrophobicity, inertness and resistance.
What are the properties of Vaseline?
Vaseline is considered a very skin-caring and protective substance, is water-repellent and has occlusive properties. When applied to the skin, it forms a film that is impermeable and thus retains water. It is also a long-lasting product as it does not oxidise.
