What is Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly?

Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly is a skin lotion with skin healing properties due to its active ingredients and is suitable for all skin types and ages. It addresses the following skin problems: ringworm, eczema, skin rash, shingles, swollen & painful feet and joints, mosquito bites and other skin problems.

What are the benefits of Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly?

Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly utilizes local natural ingredients such as Aloe, Garlic, Camphor and essential oils, which act as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agents. They in turn stimulate the growth of new skin cells and speeds up the healing process for skin problems.

How is Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly different from other petroleum jelly products?

Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly is not just a cosmetic product, it has active healing properties suitable for all skin types and ages. It is produced by a 100% Black owned company and manufactured in South Africa, KZN. When you buy Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum, you are supporting a business that meets the Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment requirements set out by the South African government to ensure that the economy is structured and transformed to enable the meaningful participation of the majority of its citizens.

If Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly is made from petroleum, is it safe for my child & I?

Yes, it is safe for the whole family. Umndeni Skin Care is purified to ensure the safety of its jelly to the skin. It is non-irritating and hypo-allergenic, as a result is suitable for patients with ringworm, eczema, skin rash, shingles, swollen & painful feet and joints, mosquito bites and other skin problems.

When should I use Umndeni Skin Care on my skin?

You can use Umndeni Skin Care Petroleum Jelly anytime, it not only provides the healing properties for skin problems, it also keeps your skin moisturised all day. External factors such as the weather breakdown your natural moisture protection, you can use the jelly to replenish the lost moisture, stimulate the growth of new skin cells and speed up the healing process for skin problems.

I'm really enjoying this petroleum jelly on my skin.

It's moisturizing and healing at the time. Just what a girl needs for healthy glowing skin.
