a lot of people are allergic to petroleum jelly, which is what Vaseline is, so yes, there can be side effects. Also it is actually drying to the skin, long term, so it's slightly counterproductive to use it as a moisturiser. It is also not suitable as a sexual lubricant if condoms are also being used as petroleum jelly damages latex, thus rendering the condom unsafe.

No, because if you put acid on your skin it would damage it. Vaseline is petroleum based.However petroleum jelly is not good for the lips/skin and while soothing your lips in the short term, overtime it makes your lips rely on vaseline and they stop producing natural oils which is why it is better to use lip balm or body/hand cremes which are made from organic substances.
