I have a tub of Vaseline and have hardly scratched the surface. I’m curious whether anyone uses it for anything other than their lips.

I read the opposite, that it stops your blood from clotting if you apply it onto a cut!

Does anyone have evidence for Vaseline being good for wounds? This thread was the first place I read it and I’m still skeptical!
I use it for my lips btw. Only after I’ve brushed my teeth. I used to use it on dry skin in the winter when my skin would literally crack from the cold but that hasn’t been a problem for a good few years thankfully!
That’s right. And that’s exactly what you want to do. You see, blood clotting isn’t always a good thing. It leaves permanent scars that will never go away. I had an accident and my whole face was fucked. I thought it was unrecoverable but vaseline did an incredible job. At some places, my skin was gone but for some reason I wasn’t bleeding. It healed slowly, and that’s what you want
