        Hi,

        I have started doing iontophoresis for underarms, but have problems wits occasional skin lesions. Now, the manual says I should use petroleum jelly in those spots, but I really can't stand the smell of it. I know, it's not a particularly strong smell, but I really find it repulsive. Since petroleum jelly is specific and cannot be replaced with a lotion or a cream, I need a good alternative to this. Something that I could apply to my skin to last through the iontophoresis treatment and protect the skin cracks so they don't hurt. Or is there a kind of petroleum jelly that is scented and smells differently? Any help appreciated!

        Shea Butter…all natural, inexpensive and can be found in any beauty supply store.

        Try Babyflo Powdery Fresh petroleum jelly. I hope it is available in your country. It really smells like powder.
