Vaseline for lips is not the exact same as Vaseline.

However Vaseline for lips does contain Vaseline which is petroleum jelly.

But unlike just Vaseline the Vaseline for lips contains additional ingredients along with the petroleum jelly that is designed for the delicate area of the lips.

Both "Vaseline for lips" and regular Vaseline use petroleum jelly as their main ingredient.

The lip Vaseline also often contains Shea Butter, Cetearyl alcohol and Carnauba or Copernicia Cerifera wax.

Vaseline Lip Therapy combines Vaseline jelly with a new formula, designed to protect dry and cracked lips.

Vaseline has also been used for treating dry skin since 1870 and petroleum jelly is clinically proven to create a skin barrier.

It is also safe to apply a small amount of regular Vaseline or other petroleum jelly to your lips to keep them moisturized and prevent dry and cracked or chapped lips.
