Beauty Tips For Body Care
I was getting eye wrinkles from living in a dry cold place so I started washing off my makeup every night with the fragrance free mineral oil. After cleansing I'd then moisturize my eyes with Aquaphor (petroleum). It was going great--so much so that I actually started recommending my routine to people because my eyes looked so healthy and young. But within six months I started getting itchy and red. I cut everything irritating out of my routine. I was left with only mineral oil and that's when I figured out it was the culprit. One morning I woke up with my eye almost swollen shut! Here's a pick of how red and itchy it made my eyes (along with all the cystic acne it gave me).I just want to remind everyone that products can still cause allergies after you patch test! And products that everyone on here seems to love can end up being really bad for you. I hope that one day we have a larger discussion about mineral oil. When I went to the derm, she said that petroleum seemed to wear down my skin barrier.
