Homemade recipe: Vaseline and cloves

• Vaseline: Creates a protective barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and soothing dry or irritated areas.
• Cloves: Contain eugenol, a natural compound known for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and aromatic properties. When combined with Vaseline, cloves enhance its soothing and protective benefits.

Uses of Vaseline and Cloves Mixture

1. Soothes Dry Skin and Chapped Lips
   During cold or dry seasons, lips and skin can crack easily. A small dab of this mixture provides hydration while the cloves’ antimicrobial properties protect against minor infections.
2. Minor Skin Irritations and Cuts
   For small scrapes, scratches, or irritated patches, the mixture can act as a gentle protective layer while delivering mild antibacterial support from cloves.
3. Aromatic Stress Relief
   Cloves have a naturally warm, stimulating scent. Applying the mixture on pulse points such as wrists or behind the ears offers subtle aromatherapy benefits throughout the day.
4. DIY Lip Balm or Hand Care
   This recipe doubles as a homemade lip balm or hand treatment. It’s simple, inexpensive, and free from harsh chemicals often found in commercial products.
