Vaseline and egg yolk, two powerful substances for hydrating and revitalizing the skin, are combined in this easy, natural DIY face mask. While egg yolks are rich in proteins, vitamins, and good fats that help minimize wrinkles and increase skin elasticity, Vaseline seals in moisture. Here’s how to make and apply this anti-aging solution:
Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon Vaseline (petroleum jelly)
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or coconut oil (optional, for added hydration)
Directions:
- Melt Vaseline: Put it in a small bowl and warm it up a little bit (you can use a double boiler or a microwave for 10 seconds). This facilitates mixing.
- Beat the Egg Yolk: Beat the egg yolk until it’s smooth in a separate bowl.
- Mixing the ingredients: Mix the egg yolk thoroughly with the melted Vaseline. Stir with coconut or olive oil for added moisture.
- Apply to Skin: After properly cleaning your face, evenly apply the mixture to your skin, paying particular attention to wrinkled regions (such as the forehead, mouth, and eyes).
- Keep it on: To give the nutrients time to absorb, leave the mask on for 15 to 20 minutes.
Benefits
- Vaseline: Smoothes tiny wrinkles, seals in moisture, and forms a protective barrier.
- Egg Yolk: Packed with protein, biotin, and vitamin A, it tightens and nourishes the skin.
- Optional Oil: Coconut or olive oil enhances skin texture and provides additional hydration.
