Hello fellow stoners, my grandad asked me for some advice today, and in my 10 years of reading/cooking with cannabis, I've never heard of infused petroleum jelly.
Back story:
I got my granddad hooked on the herb a few years back, he smoked with me for the first time when he was around 85, he's creeping up on 90 and going strong. He grows his own and makes his own butter, got him hooked on that as well, because smoke hurt the lungs.
I've been making canna balm lately which I would give him and my gran to try and they love it, they can feel the difference on the joints and muscles. I use coconut oil and natural wax as a base, coconut oil obviously for the fat base.
Now petroleum jelly is a fat, right? But is it a good enough fat to hold THC and CBD?
My granddad would like to infuse his own petroleum jelly to use as a "skin cream" basically. He said he'll add water with the herb and infuse it until the water evaporates.
Thank you for reading, looking forward to the responses.
Is it likely to somehow enter the vagina if I apply on outer labia? Are there better suited alternatives for this? I need a long term solution since the chaffing happens every time
So peeps. Looking for opinions about slugging
so i recently bought this product - Un-Petroleum Jelly and it is amazing for keeping my daughter's diaper area from getting irritated, especially overnight.
but then i was re-reading the ingredients--beeswax! ugh. totally not vegan. has anyone tried a similar product that is vegan? i know regular petroleum jelly technically is (i think?) but i don't want to use it since it's... petroleum.
Was this story confirmed and what happened?
Please excuse me for being off-trend when it comes to beauty, but I just notice that my jar of vaseline jelly says "dermatologist recommended" on it and I know lots of doctors will actually tell you to apply it over stitches post-op to promote healing etc.
But now i'm seeing alot of people searching for petroleum free products and a lot of products advertising how they DON'T use petroleum in them. Specifically lip balms.
People are avoiding petroleum skincare stuff like its evil or something.....am I missing something? Have the dermatologists changed their minds and decided that petroleum was the root of all skincare evil?
I learned that im really prone to swimmers ear recently, and I'm just getting over a really bad bout of it. The pain is unlike any other for something so preventable.
I have some very old petroleum jelly. As in, expired 4 years ago, old. Anyone have any ideas on what to do with it? I'm about to have a baby and thought about using it for diaper rash prevention but with it being so old I'm not sure if that's a good idea.
Unless there's a better comparison.
