Abstrakt: Petroleum jelly has long been a favorite treatment option of dermatologists for atopic dermatitis, despite complaints of "greasiness" by patients and their parents. Here, we describe a simple application method that effectively traps moisture against the skin while leaving behind only a thin layer of product, thus eliminating the "greasiness" associated with petroleum jelly.
