What is White Petroleum Jelly?
Also called petrolatum or soft paraffin, White Petroleum Jelly is a solid, gel-like substance made of hydrocarbons. It can be spread over a surface but maintains its shape like a solid. It will not mix with water, so when spread on the skin it cannot be rinsed off by water at room temperature. However, it has a low melting point and can be washed away with hot water. These unique properties give it a variety of uses in skin care products, cosmetics, and medicines, which require ease of application with long-term durability.

In sports and other activities, White Petroleum Jelly is used as a skin protectant to lubricate the skin and prevent chafing. White Petroleum Jelly is sometimes used as a sunblock to prevent sunburn.
