Using vaseline petroleum jelly

Q: Are these halaal? 

Mineral oil, Paraffin, microcrystalline wax, tocopheryl acetate, fragrance. 

They are the ingredients of vaseline petroleum jelly skin protection. I searched them and mustakshif app said its haraam. I have a little amount of this on my shirt and phone because it was on my hands. 

A: If it does not contain any impermissible or impure ingredient, then it is halaal to use for external purposes.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
