Who knew two simple ingredients could do wonders for your skin? Vaseline and lemon, already present in most kitchens, combine to restore freshness and radiance to your face. Why not try this revisited grandmother’s trick?
Why combine Vaseline and lemon?
Petroleum jelly is known for its intense moisturizing properties. By forming a protective barrier, it locks in moisture and prevents skin from drying out. Lemon, on the other hand, is a true powerhouse of vitamin C and citric acid, known for their brightening and exfoliating effects.
But that’s not all! By adding aloe vera for its soothing benefits, vitamin E for its antioxidant properties, and a few drops of rosehip oil for anti-aging, you get an ultra-effective homemade cream.
