Aquaphor is a brand-name family of skin-care products to help relieve dry skin and eczema, dry or chapped lips, and as a protectant for minor skin wounds. The active ingredient in all Aquaphor products except the lip balm is petrolatum, better known as petroleum jelly.

Vitamin B5 is often used to in skincare products to promote skin healing and reduce swelling.
Aquaphor lip balms contain different ingredients including skin protectants, lubricants, and emollients. Aquaphor lip balms do not include petrolatum.
Aquaphor products are applied over the affected skin as a thin layer when needed.
What are the side effects of Aquaphor?
Some but not all common side effects of Aquaphor are primarily allergic reactions to the active or inactive ingredients and include skin redness, itching, burning, or irritation.
