How to Make Vaseline at Home: Cracked heels are a common problem during winter. Cold and dry winds can damage the skin, making heel care even more difficult. Petroleum jelly is used for skin care. Petroleum jelly is a mixture of natural waxes and mineral oils. It helps moisturize and protect the skin. But did you know that petroleum jelly can also be made at home? Let's tell you how to make petroleum jelly at home.

Actually, it's not possible to make real petroleum jelly at home. You can easily make natural and safe alternatives with similar properties to petroleum jelly, which help moisturize and soften the skin.

Ingredients for Making Petroleum Jelly at Home
Coconut Oil
2 tablespoons Beeswax
Olive Oil
Glycerin

To make petroleum jelly at home, heat some water in a pan. Once the water is hot, place a glass bowl over it. Add the coconut oil and wax to the bowl. Heat the ingredients over medium-low heat until the wax and coconut oil are completely melted. Once the wax and coconut oil are completely melted, remove the pan from the heat. Add olive oil to the bowl and whisk thoroughly until the mixture becomes creamy.

If you wish to add any essential oils, add them at this time. Carefully pour the mixture into a clean, lidded jar or container. Your petroleum jelly is ready. Leave it to set for 2-3 hours. As it cools, it will thicken to the consistency of petroleum jelly. Use this homemade jelly on chapped lips, dry hands and feet, and cracked heels. Applying this petroleum jelly regularly during winter will help alleviate cracked heels.
