Petrolatum, commonly known as petroleum jelly, is a semi-solid mixture of hydrocarbons derived from petroleum refining. It is purified for medical and cosmetic use.
Key uses:
Skin Protectant & Moisturizer: Forms an occlusive barrier on skin, locking in moisture and protecting against irritation (e.g., for dry skin, chapped lips, diaper rash).
Wound Healing: Used in ointments to keep minor cuts and burns moist, promoting healing and preventing infection.
Industrial Lubricant & Protectant: Lubricates machinery and prevents rust on tools.
Hair & Beauty: Used in hair pomades and as a makeup remover
Note: Highly refined petrolatum is considered safe and non-comedogenic for most skin types.
