• Vaseline believes that truly healthy skin starts
  with deep healing moisture. Its not something
  you get by masking problems or through quick
  fixes. We know this because we are the original
  skin experts. Founded in 1870 by Robert
  Chesebrough, Vaseline has been safely helping
  skin heal for over 140 years. We invite you to
  take a trip back in time over a century of
  healing to where it all began

• 1859
• The Discovery
• Robert Augustus Chesebrough, a 22 year-old
  British chemist, travelled to Titusville, a small
  Pennsylvania town where petroleum had recently
  been discovered. Chesebrough, who had been making
  kerosene from the oil of sperm wales, was eager
  to learn what other products could be made from
  petroleum. Shortly after arriving in Titusville
  he became intrigued by a naturally-occurring
  byproduct of the oil drilling process that seemed
  to have remarkable skin-healing properties. While
  watching the oilmen, Chesebrough took note of how
  they would smear their skin with the residue from
  the drill to help heal their cuts and burns.
  Inspired, Chesebrough began his quest to help
  heal Americas dry skin.
