Have you ever heard that many newborn babies in the United States get a squirt of erythromycin ointment, including petroleum jelly vaseline, a brand name of vaseline, into each of their eyes in their first hour after born. So don't be alarmed if you got only a little vaseline in your eyes, there should be not any problems because it is not toxic or irritating. What makes you feel uncomfortable is the greasy property of vaseline, but your eyes will tear up and soon return to normal. As a matter of fact, vaseline are frequently used as the base for many ointments that used for eye gel or make up remover, and the most common eye lubricant also contains mineral oil and petroleum jelly. Vaseline is indeed a multi-functional product. It can not only be used for dry lips, sore cuts and rough hands, but also can used for eyebrows and eyelashes to help them grow. In all, vaseline will give you smooth, nice and moisturized skin without being greasy.
