“Vaseline” is actually the brand of the very well known petroleum jelly-based products range owned by giant Unilever, most commonly used as a lubricant, moisture insulator and sometimes to protect minor cuts and burns. While its usage is widespread, the fact that this product comes from oil petrolatum (so yes, it’s no eco-friendly at all!), makes some people wary of it; and it should, as it’s actually just an occlusive agent. As such, it prevents the moisture to go outside.

You should not use this product in your dog. Instead, we’re sharing with you our ultimate recipe for Natural “Vaseline” or, as I like to call it, Natural Moisturiser and protector for dogs’ paws, nose and minor cuts. At the end of this recipe you’ll find a bonus note in case you want to use this natural moisturiser for yourself (it’s fantastic preventing lip crack and moisturising your skin in a gentle, all natural and eco-friendly way). Try it on, and your life will never be the same. You’ll see.
