DynarexWhite Petrolatum, Petroleum Jelly for Dry, Damaged or Cracked Skin, Soothing White Petroleum Jelly for Minor Skin Irritations, 4 oz. Tubes, 1 Petroleum Jelly Tube

Great prod for healing

I must have read the product page incorrectly. I thought I was getting 4 tiny tubes, which I wanted to keep one in each of my backpacks, messenger bag, cosmetic pouch... you get the idea. This sucker is gigantic. No way can it go in my go everywhere messenger bag. I solved this problem by squeezing the product into a series of tiny 15 mL airless pump bottles. Let me tell you, nothing has ever felt so soothing, and instantly so, on my dry lips than this petrolatum. I wish I got around to trying it for this purpose years ago. This was another tip I got from the dermatologist Dr. Dray. The only point to remember though is that petrolatum of course provides zero ultraviolet protection. UV protection is very important for the lips. I mean, look at them. They are pinky-red. There is nearly no melanocytes to produce the sun protecting skin pigment melanin. No one wants burnt, photo-aged, or cancerous lips. So during the day I only apply this over a set layer of lip SPF. As the sun goes down down is a different story. Also its just hands down the best as a topical barrier for the lips if you are going to do sort of topical treatment that is therapeutic to the face, like retin-a\tretinoin, or maybe you have melasma and use some hydroquinone based product but you do not want affecting your lips..In summary, the tube is huge, don't think you're going to enjoy carrying it around with you as it comes packaged. The product its self, quite lovely. It still gets 5 stars, because looking back that was my fault for not attending to the details on the product listing.

We used to buy a white petroleum product named Cloverine to use on dry lips. They no longer make that so we have been searching for a replacement. We have found it in this. Just be warned this tube will not fit in a small purse. I use it at bedtime so that’s not a problem for me.

I received this product damaged with the ointment. Oozing out of the package. I can’t even travel with it now, so defeats the purpose of purchase. I would really like a replacement.

A very small amount

In a tube form rather than the typical jar size.

I used it on an abrasion I received, put in on before bandage. Went on better than regular vasoline to heal fastet
