Petroleum jelly, a byproduct of oil refining, is a significant contributor to greenhouse gases and consequently, climate change. It’s crucial to explore and adopt eco-friendly alternatives to these products.

Some people also use a thick moisturizer like Vaseline to treat acne. They say it locks in moisture and repairs damage from chemical treatments.
Can toothpaste and Vaseline be combined to create the ultimate beauty balm? The answer is no. Those clickbait titles and creative videos on social media are wrong. The properties that make these two shine as beauty hacks on their own do not get magnified when they are combined.
Quora users say they become less effective when mixed.
Toothpaste’s abrasive and drying properties are lost when mixed with Vaseline.
Vaseline’s moisture-rich benefits don’t improve when combined with toothpaste, but the minty smell might be a plus.
