It works!!

Wounds heal best when they’re kept moist, (something tattoo artists have known about for a long time, as they always suggest keeping lotion on a healing tattoo) and traditional gauze bandaging actively dries out wounds. This prevents effective healing and causes additional scarring.
Stop the bleeding, and then smear a bit of Vaseline on top of the wound before putting a bandage on to cover it. The Vaseline will prevent the bandage from drying out the wound, allowing it to heal faster and with less scarring.
Isn’t traditional gauze bandaging supposed to be paired with a dressing, that would usually keep the wound from drying out?
I was raised to always put a bead of Neosporin under the bandage but that’s just Vaseline with some antiseptic ingredients

Lubricates and protects basically any metal, rubber or plastic
Stays slick when giving a massage
EDIT:
For the gents in the house, apply liberally to prevent any “sticking” throughout the day. Baby powder also works and is probably better for humid climates
I suggest Gold Bond Extra Strength for your junk fellow dick and ball havers out there, prevents chaffing, heals if it’s already there, and as was told to me when I was first educated about it by a buddy on my wrestling team, “feels like tiny little fairy’s are gently blowing on you balls”. 10/10 would recommend
Protecting industrial components from corrosion
um lip balm?
This has been a game changer for my chronically dry lips. It stays on long and makes your lips look great! Plus they’re healthier. Couldn’t recommend it enough.
A thin layer on new car battery posts when you put a new one in to help protect from corrosion. Cheaper than the anti-corrosion spray and you probably have some lying around.
Putting a layer just inside your nostrils to catch pollen and help with hayfever
I regularly do this. I have regular nose bleeds, and issues with a dry nose and this keeps it all soft and suple
