How dry skin can fight back

Very dry skin has a new way of fighting back.  New Vaseline Intensive Rescue goes beyond instant relief and provides long-lasting moisture, promoting the proper environment for your skin to do something amazing: repair itself.

Fists forming a defensive wallIntensive Rescue

Over 130 years ago, Vaseline successfully launched the first branded skin care product in the market. Today, we've taken our expertise and passion for skin and developed a new range of products to help "very dry skin" consumers control their troublesome dry skin.

New Vaseline Intensive Rescue is a range of products specifically designed with all of your different dry skin needs in mind:

Moisture Locking Body Lotion

Healthy skin naturally repairs itself, but many factors – from the environment to heredity – can negatively affect this ability and lead to severe dryness. Vaseline Intensive Rescue Moisture Locking Body Lotion increases moisture reserves instantly, then fills tiny gaps in skin to lock moisture in all day, promoting the proper environment dry skin needs to repair itself.

Relief & Repair Balm

Healthy skin naturally repairs itself, but even healthy skin can have flare ups, which are skin's way of signalling that its normal moisturisation processes are under severe pressure. Vaseline Intensive Rescue Relief & Repair Balm's highest combination of moisturising ingredients works within seconds to help relieve severe dryness symptoms. It promotes the ideal long-term environment for even severely dry skin to repair itself within 5 days.

Soothing Hand Cream

Healthy skin naturally repairs itself, but as hands are constantly active and exposed to the elements, this natural process can be disrupted, leading to cracked and rough skin. Vaseline Intensive Rescue Soothing Hand Cream's unique formula infuses dry skin with intense moisturisers and sinks in within seconds, yet lasts all day to promote the ideal environment that skin needs to repair itself.

Hydrating Foot Cream

Healthy skin naturally repairs itself, but as busy feet are under constant pressure, this natural process can be disrupted, leading to cracked and rough skin. Vaseline Intensive Rescue Hydrating Foot Cream softens skin on contact. It then deeply moisturises to promote the environment for skin’s natural healing processes to occur, reducing roughness within five days.

How the products work

Instant Relief

Humectants, like glycerine, bind and lock individual water molecules to your skin, delivering an immediate burst of moisture, giving relief to dry, tight skin. And because of the high concentration of the humectant glycerine in Vaseline Intensive Rescue products, this relief lasts all day long.

Long-Lasting Moisture & Repair

Occlusives, like Vaseline petroleum jelly, help fill-in the lipid structure of your very dry skin, while also providing a physical barrier to prevent further moisture loss, allowing skin to retain moisture over time. The occlusives in Intensive Rescue products, specifically Vaseline petroleum jelly, help seal the moisture in and over time your skin's baseline moisture level increases.

All Intensive Rescue products use an optimal combination of humectants and occlusives. In addition, Intensive Rescue Hydrating Foot Cream contains alpha hydroxy acids which gently soften and exfoliate, delivering comfort while further promoting the proper environment for healing.

Performance

Each product in the Intensive Rescue range has been developed following extensive research by Vaseline scientists, including time moisturisation tests, moisturisation efficacy tests, home use clinical trials and consumer home use tests against other products currently in the market. This research demonstrated the effectiveness of all the Intensive Rescue products at providing both instant relief and moisture, and increasing the moisture level in the skin over time.
