I checked the article you linked (from easybakee.xyz). It claims that by mixing Vaseline with two ingredients you can “erase wrinkles for good,” but that post is just repeating a common DIY beauty idea and not backed by solid science. (All Recipes)
🪄 What These Online Remedies Usually Suggest
Many similar articles online recommend mixing:
• Vaseline (petroleum jelly) – to lock in moisture
• Vitamin E oil or aloe vera gel – for antioxidants and hydration
…sometimes other plant oils like rosehip or almond oil too. (All Recipes)
🧪 What Science Actually Says
Here’s the truth based on dermatology and skincare science:
✅ Vaseline hydrates and protects: It forms a barrier on the skin that helps lock in moisture so skin looks smoother temporarily. Hydrated skin may make fine lines less noticeable right after application. (Well Wisp)
❌ Vaseline does not erase wrinkles: There’s no scientific evidence that Vaseline or homemade mixes can permanently remove or erase wrinkles because they don’t affect skin aging at its source (loss of collagen and elasticity). Water loss prevention doesn’t equal wrinkle reversal. (Medical Dialogues)
📌 Important Notes Before Trying DIY Mixes
- Occlusives like Vaseline don’t penetrate deeply — they just trap moisture on the surface. (theSkimm)
- Some oils (like essential oils) can irritate sensitive skin or cause breakouts if not used carefully. (Kafigonka)
- The only proven methods to genuinely reduce wrinkles involve ingredients or treatments that affect skin structure (e.g., retinoids, sunscreen, peptides, clinical treatments).
🧴 Realistic Expectations
Using Vaseline mixed with vitamin E or aloe can help with dryness and skin texture, which may make fine lines look softer, but it will not “erase wrinkles for good.” That claim is a beauty myth rather than dermatological fact. (Well Wisp)
