If you have dry skin, you know the struggle, I went from oily or what I thought was oily to dry very fast don’t even know if that’s a thing but hey it happened to me. If you feel like your skin is cracking up, shine less, and have a tendency to peel off every time you don’t apply lotion and in the worse case scenario even when you do apply lotion?Your girl got you covered !
petroleum jelly
this is not homemade , is not super expensive and is my go to every time, but I feel like I have to talk about it .I have been using petroleum jelly every other time and it works every time. It is a mixture of mineral oils and waxes this helps seal your skin with water-protective barrier. If the lack of fragrance is what scares you off they have different fragrances for different taste ( not sponsored) I personally the normal (for my dry lips) ,the aloe Vera or the cocoa butter ,there are many others but these are my favorites. Petroleum jelly can be used as a face and body lotion,it moisturizes your skin preventing it from drying out, trust me this is the most useful product you can have with you, it goes from skin protection to removing eye makeup to preventing split ends . My go to brand when it comes to petroleum jelly is Vaseline what is yours? This small jar will make a big difference in your life, if you would like me to make an article on the other benefits of Petroleum jelly comment bellow.
