Did you know, petroleum jelly can heal wounds and burns? This semi-solid jelly-like substance called Petroleum jelly or petrolatum is a mixture of minerals, oils, and waxes that is used as a skin product to heal and retain moisture from your skin. Its main ingredient ‘petroleum’ helps to seal the cracked skin by creating a water protective barrier.

Petroleum jelly heals the wounded skin as it has emollient properties hence it is widely used in areas of medicine and cosmetic industries. It can be used on all skin types as it is very safe and does not have any side effects. When choosing a petroleum jelly, be sure to select a triple-distilled purified product simply to avoid adding any toxic contaminants on your skin as some of these chemicals could be carcinogenic.
