With no petroleum-based ingredients or harsh chemicals to cause irritation, Nature's World Petroleum Free Jelly is a natural, multi-purpose product, which can be used on even the most sensitive skin.
Made from a unique formulation of plant-based oils and beeswax, without harmful chemicals or petroleum, this soothing jelly protects and treats dry, sore or chafed skin.
Synthetic alternatives:
Conventional petroleum products are made from a synthetic chemical (mineral oil) produced as a by-product of the oil industry.
As a lubricant for machinery it’s great (which is why most garages and sheds contain a pot) but as a personal care item it’s not so great.
Mineral Oil acts as a thin plastic, impenetrable layer on the skin. It is difficult to absorb and clogs the pores slowing the skin’s ability to eliminate toxins - which can promote acne and other skin disorders.
It also slows down skin function and normal cell development causing the skin to prematurely age.
Mineral oil can be contaminated with cancer causing PAH’s (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons).
