Yes, as I mentioned before, I think it's quite harmless. The only potential damage it could have is slight bleaching of the skin, which my doctor said I *definitely* aquired. I've never used any other lubrication, only vaseline. She noted the before and after impact of vaseline on my bum and we could not find anything else that caused the discolouration. I've spoken to a few other people as well who told me that vaseline can discolour the skin.
Either way, the comfort it provides is more important to me than the discolouration it has caused.
