DIY Creamy Petroleum Jelly

If you're like me, you swear by the effectiveness of Petroleum Jelly!  It works to get rid of the itchy, scaly patches on the inside of my elbows, behind my knees, and areas around my neck that I get during the winter season.  I never have ashy feet and even with all this extra hand-washing due to covid-19, my hands have not cracked and peeled.  The only thing about Petroleum Jelly is that it can be relatively difficult to spread over my whole body and it does leave one pretty greasy.  My 6 year-old always complains about the residue I leave on the TV remote.  So to make it a little easier to work with, I decided to make my own personalized scented, creamy petroleum jelly.  It still offers the protection I need, but goes on smooth and smells great! Its super easy!

Just follow these steps:

Materials:

Jar of Unscented Petroleum Jelly

Scented Lotion

Perfume/Body Spray (optional)

Spoon / Small Icing Spatula

Empty container with lid (i.e. old petroleum jelly jar)

 

Step 1: Transfer half the unscented petroleum jelly into the empty jar and set aside.  This reserve can be for when you need plain petroleum jelly for protecting wounds or removing eye makeup, etc.

Step 2: Pour enough lotion into the jar of petroleum jelly to cover the contents.  Mix until well blended.

Step 3: Add more lotion and mix until you have the desired consistency.  Keep in mind that the body spray/perfume will make it even thinner (if you plan to add it).

Step 4 (optional): Pour in a little bit of your favorite body spray or perfume to give it a custom scent.  Mix until well blended and that's it!

You'll find the scent will stay on you longer than usual and you'll want to use this recipe over and over again!

  2. I agree with your point of view, your article has given me a lot of help and benefited me a lot. Thanks. Hope you continue to write such excellent articles.

  3. Hey, I don’t know what planet you’re living on, but PictureThis is 100% free! You can sign up for premium if you want to but the benefits aren’t really that useful unless you need to troubleshoot issues with your plants. I’ve been using it for months and aside from closing the premium ad every time I open the app, it’s still an absolutely amazing app for super detailed identification of plants and insects.Just don’t click ‘try the 7 day premium’ when you install the app and you’ll be fine, it also tells you very clearly that you’ll be signed up for the yearly subscription at the end of the trial right on the ad. Please fix this article to clarify that it is free but has a premium version where the first 7 days are free. I really like the app, and I hate the idea of people missing out on it because someone is claiming it’s not free when it is, especially since this is the first article that comes up when you search ‘plant identification app’ on Google.
