This absolutely works. When my psoriasis and/or eczema act up, I only moisturize and use vaseline. My skin heals much more quickly that way and I don’t have to worry about additional irritation.
I appreciate you keeping it real, regardless of what people comment or think. I still love and use the Hawaiian Tropic Weightless Hydration Face SPF. It feels like moisturizer and doesn’t burn my eyes like most do. I love the smell of it. I also still use and love the NYX Lingerie lipliner in Embellishment, sadly they discontinued it.
I also consider that 50 is not really middle age as the average life expectancy is around 79 or 80. That means 39 to 40 is more mid in age. I think because we look young at that age we don’t think about it that way.
For a damaged skin barrier which is some of the many forms of acne, psoriasis, and eczema the answer is petroleum jelly preferably Vaseline brand. Many of the other products she mentioned are good but the ingredients can cause irritation because the barrier is compromised. The molecule of petroleum jelly is too large to enter the skin. It is also volatile meaning it doesn’t sink into skin, it instead eventually evaporates into the air. Volatile sounds bad but its actually good when it comes to skin. Natural oils and butters penetrate the upper layers of skin. Many moisturizer ingredients penetrate the upper layers as well. If you skin barrier is damaged, those thongs can wreak more havoc and even cause allergies and bad reactions. Lanolin, shea butter and other ingredients that may be considered great for the skin aren’t all that great when the skin barrier is compromised. Many skin ailments are supposed to be healed from the inside anyway. A person grows new skin cells from the inside. Vaseline protects what’s compromised from the outside. I hope this helps.
Dr. Dray delivers the important information, analysis, and options for treatment in a coherent and comprehensive way, all in a quick minute. (And looks fab.)
Pray tell Miss Andrea! Skin is like the weather, it is constantly changing! Always keep that barrier as hydrated as possible. It is amazing how delicate it is; once it becomes compromised it is like dominoes going awry. At the first signs of even the slightest irritation, it’s time to BACK OFF on every active , wash once a day and use sunscreen aggressively with a barrier cream. 👍
Thank you so very much, extremely helpful!

is it using vaseline after the moisturize
@@alonaampuan6834Vaseline IS the moisturizer here
My mom always used vaseline for any irritation. If we got burned or had a blister she put vaseline or Penaten cream on us.
You look so pretty!
