Note from asker:
| yeah, dave, it's the filante that throws me off. so, i'll just leave it out then. |
Peer comment(s):

TrishCivitella
: Yes, the "filante" relates to the "jelly", so you are not leaving it out Pauley, by saying it this way.

string white Vaseline
I think it's a white vaseline which is sticky and has viscosity, i.e. string, as in "formaggio filante".

white soft paraffin
think that´s what it´s usually known as in UK
This preparation contains white soft paraffin (also known as white petroleum jelly). This is not an active ingredient as such, but works as a moisturiser by providing a layer of oil on the surface of the skin to prevent water evaporating from the skin surface. It is a very greasy moisturiser.
