Vaseline used to always be lying around the house and itβs only in winter I apply them to my cracked heels or my dry elbows. Recently I’ve been browsing on beauty tips on the net and noticed an article on Vaseline, its uses, and benefits. I was a bit skeptical about this since I always thought they were too thick and greasy to apply on my face. (I already have an oily skin).
I thought it would be a disaster to apply Vaseline on my skin. So I took a leap of faith and tried out Vaseline on my face. (I actually read this was Marilyn Monroe’s main skin care). I mean if Marilyn Monroe could have this on, why not me? π lol
Anyways so I tried applying Vaseline under my eyes since I had a few dark circles due to lack of sleep, my eyelids, my lashes my eyebrows and on my laughing lines or where ever I thought I was prone to wrinkles. So this experiment went on for 2 weeks where I would do this every day without fail.
Guess what, it worked. Iβm not kidding you, it did! Not only did it reduce my dark circles, my lashes grew longer my laughing lines were fading and I felt my eyelids were well moisturized.
I was so excited I greased my whole face with Vaseline before going to bed (mind you just a thin layer), and my skin was soft as a petal.
So with my further experiment, below are my Vaseline experiment results!
