The ruling on performing wudu' after applying Vaseline

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding the Vaseline applied to the body, if one wipes it and then performs wudu', is there a barrier?

Answer:
It does not cause harm. All oils, whether Vaseline or otherwise, do not cause harm and do not prevent wudu'; because it does not have a thickness that prevents water, the water flows over the limb, so this does not cause harm, if Allah wills. Yes.
