Vaseline as an eye cream?!?! #shorts

Vaseline for the Eyes 👁

100% pure petrolatum is the most effective occlusive moisturizer. It prevents 99% of transepidermal water loss but doesn’t contain lipids or other emollients

I apply a gentle moisturizer like cerave cream first and then follow with vaseline original petroleum jelly. Yes, I’m basically slugging my eyelids

This is best for dry skin and to protect your eyelid skin from irritating ingredients like retinol and exfoliating acids. I personally love this in the winter ❄️

As far as milia, many of my patients say that heavy moisturizers make their milia worse. There’s no data on this but it seems to be a common theme. If you notice milia getting worse, avoid thick moisturizers around the eye!
