<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Vaseline makes lashes look thicker
Because Vaseline is a thick jelly, rubbing it on lashes will have the same effect as mascara--it will make lashes look thick and lush. Vaseline also adds a sheen to hair, making it look healthy.
On the Other: No growth and potential harm
Vaseline's chief ingredients--mineral oil and wax--do not promote hair growth, especially in the eyelashes. In fact, rubbing Vaseline on eyelashes may clog pores around the eyes or damage the eyes if Vaseline leaks into them.
Bottom Line
Putting Vaseline on eyelashes may make them look thicker, but it will not help them to grow. Like all hair, eyelash length and growth cycles depend on genetics.
