How to DIY:
- Carefully snip open one Vitamin E capsule (the ones you find at the drugstore).
- Squeeze the oil onto your fingertip.
- Scoop up a tiny, pea-sized amount of Vaseline with the same finger.
- Gently mix them together on your fingertip.
- Using your ring finger, gently tap the mixture around your orbital bone (the bone surrounding your eye), both under and around the sides where crow’s feet might appear. Avoid getting it too close to your lash line.
- When to Use: Best applied as the very last step in your nighttime routine, right before bed. Let it work its magic overnight!
This Vaseline combo for skin is a budget-friendly way to give your under-eyes some serious love. Wake up looking more rested and refreshed!
#2. Vaseline & Lemon Juice: A Spot Treatment for Dark Spots
Dealing with stubborn dark spots or hyperpigmentation? This combo is often touted for its brightening effects, but it comes with a major caution due to lemon’s potency.
Lemon juice contains natural alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and Vitamin C, which are known for their brightening and exfoliating properties.
Vaseline acts as a barrier, potentially allowing the lemon to work more gently and preventing excessive drying. However, lemon can also be very irritating and increase photosensitivity.
