Classic Vaseline Lip Therapy in the Original 20g tin sits in the brand’s simple, petroleum-jelly-based range, competing with budget staples like Nivea and Burt’s Bees for everyday lip protection. It’s essentially Vaseline Jelly in a pocketable format, aimed at sealing in moisture rather than adding flavour, tingle or a glossy “make-up” finish.

Who is this for?

If your lips crack or feel tight in cold weather, this is the sort of balm that works best as a barrier: apply a thin layer to trap hydration (especially after drinking water or using a hydrating lip product). It’s also useful for smoothing dry patches around the lip line. If you prefer something lightweight, scented, or with SPF, you may find the texture too occlusive and the tin less convenient than a twist-up stick.

• 20g tin – lasts ages, but you’ll apply with a fingertip
• Original formula – no added flavour; focuses on moisture-locking
