When you said "The Original Vaseline" is a must-have, I straight away hit the subscribe button. And I said to myself, "I love this Doc!" I grew up using vaseline and have continued using it even on my children. Thanks Doc for such an informative video. ❤

[@ginny6485]

It's so hard to find fragrance free products in India. And then to find affordable ones is a totally different journey. :(

[@roosterroot4550]

Exactly, even the original vaseline petroleum jelly available in India contains fragnance and some other ingredients which is totally different from the one dr. V recommended.

[@asthasutariya2691]

Yes, do you know of any good products?? I need suggestions

[@Tiffany-ov2jf]

Just use Cetaphil...I use Cetaphil's cleanser and moisturizer, treatment serum by BeMinimalist or Suganda and Sunscreen by La Shield :p

[@learnenglishwithshruti]

[@mikiim5739]

ikr The ones I want to try are all like 5-6k INR on Amazon. It's ridiculous just how freakimg expensive they are

[@leesteal4458]

Yes. I started using vaseline on my face because my face was dry and getting lines. My teenage son actually told me to use it. There has been an enormous difference in how my face looks and feels. Now, I mix the vaseline with my lotions as I used to do in the past.

[@tojislefttoe7505]

You should also try ice, it'll make you look like 10 years younger. It depuffs your face and prevents fine lines

You’re the reason why I started looking at the ingredients of all skincare products before I buy it! A bioderma and Avène skincare products review would be great!

Please do avene cleanance cleanser review. My local dermatologist recommend it but I saw fragrance in the list so reluctant to buy it. Would like to hear your review on it. 👍

[@74777984]

Also keen for Bioderma sunscreens review. Recently found that they make a mineral sunscreen SPF 50 which they market for babies. Could only get it from a company in Portugal (direct or on eBay). Happy with it so far but so so so irritating to eyes that I can't put it anywhere near them. Even more irritating to eyes than the chemical sunscreens from Bioderma. Thank you for your hard work Dr V. You put a lot of time into educating us for free & it is much appreciated

I've been using Vaseline cocoa butter for years and I love it. It's good for my skin. But I never put it on my face

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

HI yes please to a fragrance video - especially categories of which are the most sensitising. As a thought, the cocoa butter lotion shown does come in a white fragrance free formula I have used and liked well enough for my body. Despite the marketing it isn't really rich enough for really dry/damaged skin (apart from Summer) as a stand alone product. I use it when just out of the shower and then apply my much thicker zerobase on top as I have severe dryness and eczema. best wishes.

[@AimanAKkhan]

Yes! Would love to see a video on fragrance

[@adriandatura]

New subscriber and I would love to hear more about fragrance! I've bought Vaseline's rose lip therapy before and hated it. I thought that since I expose my lips to many different foods and spices everyday that it would not be that big of a deal if there was fragrance in my products but it the rose was very quick to irritate my lips. It was had a sticky consistency that was absent from the OG that I hated so I just used up the rest on the dryer areas of my body at night. Even though I would never put an ounce of fragrance on my face, I love putting heavily scented lotions on the rest of my body since it's much more tolerant.

[@percy3090]

Yeah I didn’t like that one either I like the original one and it dried out my lips :( the fragrance tasted weird too

I went online to check and i literally could not find the original with the ingredients you mentioned.
