Healing Jelly Original
Summary of Reviews
Vaseline Healing Jelly Original is a versatile, inexpensive petrolatum-based ointment that board-certified dermatologists recommend for slugging, lip care, wound care, and dry skin. Doctorly calls it "one of the most gentle, benign ingredients for your skin" and uses it on lips, under eyes, and hands. Christen Dominique warns that getting it too close to the eye can cause blurry vision, but otherwise relies on it to minimize under-eye creasing.
