WAX ON

Ditch the petroleum jelly once and for all with Waxelene. The multi-use product creates the same waterproof barrier as petroleum jelly, but without any petroleum products or hydrogenated oils. It is made with only four ingredients: organic soybean oil, natural and unbleached raw beeswax, organic vitamin E oil and organic rosemary oil. Available in both lip tubes or class jars, Waxelene can help a range of skin concerns including eczema, after-sun or after-shave care. It costs, $3.99 for a tube and $17.99 for a nine-ounce jar at www.waxelene.com.
