Ok, that Tyra video made me think of Flavor Flav.

That Tyra video scared the crap out of me...

update 3: Still no break outs , skin still looks glowy. I've been using it on my neck too seeing as sweater season is coming up and my neck gets scratchy under all the wool turtlenecks. Also , I dont know if this has anything to do with the vaseline but my eyelashes arent falling out like they usually do around this time of year ...maybe it conditions lashes too? I dont know .

PS. I don't put it on like mask because as someone here said it doesnt really sink in I just put enough on to "create a barrier".

my update: normally in the morning i wake up with a greasey forehead nose and chin. i also just put just enough on to create a barrier and this morning i woke up with LESS grease than i usually do.

That's great! Glad its working for you too!

i have a friend who slathers herself in crisco in the can every night. arms, legs, the whole works. she has gorgeous skin, but i don't know if i could do this.

i'll be watching this thread to see how everyone is progressing with the vaseline!

about the eyelashes-im not really sure who what when where why or how but i recall hearing that vaseline makes eyelashes grow so if its true that could be why they are not falling out. i have mine on my face now. so far nothing what i expected to happen has happened infact the opposit has happened

thanks for the update!

[Anna]

another weird update-my forehead, nose, and chin are the oiliest parts of my face. in theory my cheeks which are super dry should suck up the vasaline and my tzone should repel it right? well my tzone was the first to absorbe it and my cheeks are still dewy. this is an extreamly intersting experiment

I don't know about making them grow but atleast they arent falling out , I burned the tips of my eyelashes about a year ago and they still havent grown back , the ones on the right are visibly shorter than on the left , a lot more sparse too. I think it probably conditions them or coats them so when I put my mascara on it comes off easier without pulling out any lashes??

What were you expecting btw? I thought I'd have huuge zits all over the place by now.

thats what i was expecting. that and like..grease dripping from my pores. Vaseline Intensive Care i investigated it and on the site it CLEARLY says it prevents dry lines/wrinkles and does not clog pores.

actually its not bad! thats what i expected. i cant feel it. like if i put my finger on my face yea i FEEL it but its not heavy on my face or anything. try it one night!

I use the Dove Bar for cleansing with no problem. I only use Vaseline for my lips and eyes though. But I have heard of many older AA women using it, so I can't knock it, but just not my cup of tea right now.

Isn't Crisco extra virgin olive oil or cooking spray?
