Petroleum jelly around your eyes?
Products like Vaseline, Aquaphor, and CeraVe ointment are legit occlusive powerhouses — they lock in moisture and the skin around your eyes drinks it up.
Here’s how to do it right:
→ Apply a lighter moisturizer first
→ Seal with a thin layer of petrolatum ointment
→ Go to sleep — wake up with plump, hydrated skin
⚠️ One caveat: petrolatum can cause milia — those tiny white bumps under the skin. If you’re seeing those, dial it back and switch to a lighter, non-petrolatum moisturizer instead.
The skin around your eyes is the most delicate on your face. Treat it gently. 🩺
