There used to be Carbolated Vaseline, it came in a brown colored jar and looked the same as the regular Vaseline except for the jar color and the color of the product. It was the best stuff for chafing and rashes. It would eliminate a rash overnight like a rash from clothes rubbing against skin. I have been trying to find it for quite a long time but have not been successful. I assume they no longer manufacture it but I can't imagine why (making carbolated vaseline involves working in a very toxic environment) . I came on this question when I was searching the internet for a Chese-Brough Ponds web site; can't find that either.

this link takes you to a letter response from the Vaseline people about why they discontinued the product

this link takes you to a company that sells Carbolated (ie medicated) vaseline but it seems pretty expensive - $12.99 and I can't tell how much you get for the money; looks good though - I may give it a try
Camphor Ice is no longer made by Chesebrough Ponds Inc. They abondend it and now is made by Dermatone Laboratories inc. You can buy it directly off their website www.dermatone.com or call them to order it (800) 225-7546.
Not any more. They used to sell it as Medicated Vaseline or First Aid Antiseptic Prtroleum Jelly, but discontinued it about 5 years ago.
Me
Vaseline
I've also been looking for it but cant find it anywhere??
Yes it is. Kløver Vaseline is made in Norway by Lilleborg Fabrikker(Orkla) under a patented agreement with Chesebrough-Pond, Inc. from 1988, which is owned by Unilever, which again owns the patent and manufacture the Vaseline brand, also in the USA. - In other words - Lilleborg manufacture Kløver Vaseline for Unilever/Vaseline with the same recipe. In Scandinavia, the Kløver Vaseline brand is marked on Vasline's website as one of their products, side-by-side with their Vaseline Original Petroleum Jelly.
no vaseline is brand name of petroleum jelly
It is owned by a company called Unilever the founder of Unilever is Merger of Lever Brothers and Margarine Unie in 1930.Vaseline was invented by Robert Chesebrough.
No! it is Vaseline!
yes (it says so in the description)
Yes. Petroleum jelly is just that; an oil product. Lip balms generally contain some form of petroleum, along with waxes (such as beeswax or parafin) and "enhancers"-things that make your lips shiny or medicate them, etc. Some common ones include vitamins A and E, almond oil, shea butter, and other oils (coconut, etc.) Balms are sometimes colored, as well, where as petroleum is clear and shiny. Plus, a full container of petroleum jelly is (a lot of times, anyways) cheaper than most lip balms out there.
Put on vaseline (petroleum jelly).
According to Unilver, there was not a great enough demand for the product in order to keep producing it. Instead they decided to focus on the production of other products that were in greater demand.
