  • Handy

    I have been using Vaseline since I was teenager for chapped lips and it works a treat. Also good for nappy rash. It’s an excellent skin protector and cheaper than a lot of products that do the same job.


  • Handy to Have

  • Multi purpose

    5 out of 5

    Love this stuff as it’s multi purpose.
    I use it on my lips as a lip balm, mix it in with eye shadow to create a shadow that sticks and also use it around my head and ears when I’m dying my hair at home.
    Hubby has used it for small burns and to help with his models.

    This product has stood the test of time and continues on…. I have used this for various needs on the body from my head to my toes. Also I have used it on “things that get stuck”, rings etc.


  • It's ok

    2.5 out of 5

    Very nice for cracked lips however I prefer to use a more wholesome alternative it feels wrong using petroleum jelly on my skin! Loved it for years on end.


  • Versatile product

    5 out of 5

    Can be used on anything from personal to household uses but mostly personal kind of things. This product has stood the test of time and I’ll always use it if rashes etc or anything of that sort appears


  • Vaseline

    5 out of 5

    The best for cracked lips and very dry or sore skin on your hands. The texture isn’t my favourite consistency as it’s so thick but it does do the job of healing dry, cracked and sore skin. Highly recommend for the whole family.


  • A great waterproof barrier

    4 out of 5

    Vaseline petroleum jelly has a smooth texture with no obvious smell. It’s great for a variety of things where you need a waterproof barrier & it just wipes off your skin. It does leave a bit of an oily residue, but that’s why it works


  • Vaso

    3.5 out of 5

    Good for dry lips and skin. I used it on my daughter when she was a newborn to help with constipation. Not oily, no mess


  • Best vaseline

    5 out of 5

    I always have several tubs of this at home!

    I used it for chapped lips, great to help kids with swimming as well if their swim suit scrapes them apply on skin and works wonders.


  • Not my tea

    1 out of 5

    I don’t actually use this I don’t find it actually helps my dry lips…
    Yes it is thick it creates a barrier on my skin but I don’t feel it doesn’t anything


  • Useful

    5 out of 5

    Vaseline has always been useful for a variety of things. We recently purchased one to put on our baby’s chin to prevent rashes from the constant drooling and it works.


  • Great for everything!

    5 out of 5

    Great for dry lips or skin. Use it to make lip gloss or glitter gel, or mix with other cosmetics if they are too thick. Mix it with polymer clay to soften it.


  • Great home staple

    5 out of 5

    This is a trusted and versatile product. I use it for dry chapped lips, dry itchy patches in winter and I also use it on my babys face when she gets eczema flare ups and it gets rid of it quickly.

  • always on hand

    4.5 out of 5

    Vaseline has always been a staple item in my bathroom cabinet – it is a great product as it has so many different uses around the home as well as medicinal type usage. I can even recall it being in my grandmother’s home, it has been around for many many years.


  • A must have

    5 out of 5

    I always have a tub of Vaseline around the house. I use for dry lips or my son gets redness around his mouth from eating certain foods – Vaseline clears it up right away. And I discovered a new hack – my kids play winter sport and I have been slathering them in Vaseline because it blocks the wind and keeps them warm. Have now got the whole girls footy team using!


  • Love it!

    4.5 out of 5

    I love Vaseline for all my beauty needs. It’s great as a lip balm but also awesome as an eyebrow tamer or even a cuticle cream. Many uses!

  • Been around for ages

    3.5 out of 5

    Vaseline is one of those parts try staple items that has been around for the test of time and although there are uses we don’t use it often for lip balm


  • Amazing product!

    4.5 out of 5

    I love how easy it is to access this product as you don’t have to squeeze and tube or anything to use it. Additionally, unlike most recent Vaseline products which are full of (delicious but unnecessary) scents, the petroleum jelly is unscented and natural!


  • been around for years

    5 out of 5

    Vaseline has been around for years and has many many different uses. For the skin as well as for helping squeaky doors, or trying to get your rings off! it is a good size and the lid is easy to to take on and off for anyone.


  • Vaseline

    5 out of 5

    Vaseline is another one of those products that has been around forever (seems like!). Vaseline is so reliable and effective for so many purposes and we always have Vaseline in our pantry, bathroom, kitchen kit and first aid kit.


  • Great all around

    5 out of 5

    Such a versatile product, so simple but so good. Great for chapped lips and skin. We always have a tub of this handy in our house.


  • A family favourite

    5 out of 5

    I think most homes in Australia have a container of Vaseline in them. I use it for dry lips, rashes, and also to stop door hinges from squeaking – believe it, it really works LOL


  • An oldie but a goodie

    4 out of 5

    My mum used it on us when I was a child, for dry lips and really dry skin, And I have used it with my girls. It was and still is just petroleum jelly with no added chemicals. One star less because it does not come from a renewable resource.


  • VPJ

    Always have one at home. one in the caravan. And one in toiletry bag.


  • Can't live without this

    5 out of 5

    Always a pot of this sitting on my bench for lips. Whether they’re dry and chapped or not. I tend to apply it before going out for some protection from sun and wind


  • The Good Olde Vaso

    5 out of 5

    My daughter bites her lips at times and end up cracked and near bleeding so get out the Vaso. Dont even bother with Lip Balms because the Vaseline nourishes and soothes 10 times better than they could ever do.


  • It never expires and lasts a long time

    4.5 out of 5

    You would never believe I had a jar at my bedside table for so many years and at the last application it was still nice and fresh . Very versatile to use which I mainly use for dry lips/skin areas and is safe for the family to use . The only criticism is hopefully one day they would use a pump bottle as finger dipping in a jar is not too hygienic . Otherwise product is good quality .
