Vaseline for Face: The Safe Way to Try Our Viral Mix-Ins

How to make Vaseline for skin recipes

Always scoop Vaseline into a separate clean bowl before mixing. Do not contaminate the main jar.

1. Aloe Vaseline for clear-looking comfort

  • 1 teaspoon petroleum jelly
  • 1/2 teaspoon aloe vera gel
  1. Mix fresh in a small bowl.
  2. Apply a thin layer to dry body patches or rough hands.
  3. Use the same day because aloe is water-based.

2. Baby oil Vaseline for smooth body glow

  • 1 teaspoon petroleum jelly
  • 3 drops baby oil
  1. Mix until glossy.
  2. Apply to legs, shoulders, or elbows.
  3. Wait before dressing to prevent transfer.

3. Turmeric Vaseline for body-only dull patches

  • 1 teaspoon petroleum jelly
  • 1 tiny pinch turmeric powder
  1. Mix very well.
  2. Apply to elbows, knees, or heels for 5 minutes.
  3. Rinse with cleanser.
  4. Use an old towel because turmeric can stain.

4. Clove Vaseline for rough body areas

  • 1 teaspoon petroleum jelly
  • 1/4 teaspoon mild clove water
  1. Make clove water by steeping 2 whole cloves in hot water for 10 minutes.
  2. Cool and strain completely.
  3. Mix only 1/4 teaspoon into petroleum jelly.
  4. Use on rough body areas only, not near the eyes.
