chapstick etc. on pesach

Asked by Aviva · April 13, 2003 · Passover

Question

Is it permitted to use chapstick, vaseline or other lip ointments on Pesach? If so, should I buy new ones or can I use vaseline that was used before Pesach?

Answer

Answered by Aaron Abadi

all medicines, toiletries, vitamins, shoepolish, toothpaste, mouthwas, etc are not edible as a food & are 100% kosher for Pesach. Ask yourself, "Can I eat this? Eat like a bowl of it?" AA
