      I’d say Vaseline sort of covers Aquaphor here. Someone correct me if I’m wrong but Aquaphor is basically Vaseline but with some added inactive ingredients.

        Aquaphor is mostly petroleum jelly, which is Vaseline, but it has some extra benefits in most cases. For example, while it still provides a protective layer it lets more air through to the wound site which helps healing.

        Yeah, Vaseline is pure petroleum jelly I believe, while Aquaphor includes specifically skin-moisturizing ingredients.
