Vaseline: Vaseline is a good occlusive, which means that it helps to lock in moisture and prevent the skin from drying out. It is also non-comedogenic, which means that it will not clog pores.
Aquaphor: Aquaphor is a good occlusive, but it also has some moisturizing properties that Vaseline does not have. This is because Aquaphor contains humectants, which are ingredients that attract water to the skin.
Vaseline: Vaseline can be used to moisturize dry skin, protect minor cuts and burns, and remove makeup.
