Vaseline Lubricating Jelly, by Kendall/Covidien, is a soothing therapeutic ointment that can be used by itself or as a base for other skin treatments. Vaseline Lubricating Jelly is perfect for skin donor sites, burns, skin grafts, skin tears, circumcisions, lacerations, and some wounds. Vaseline Petroleum Jelly is viscous enough that it will stay in place, eliminating the need to reapply. This Barrier Ointment protects sensitive or irritated skin while lubricating and soothing it. Vaseline Ointment is also useful for areas exposed to excessive moisture from incontinence.
