  1. Thank you, women should have a lot of useful information and make themselves prettier with the help of natural stuff. Just I wouldn’t suggest vaseline – it remains a petroleum product, purely chemical, which may cause side effects with time. I would replace it with effective conditioners such as Cherish Lash. Amazing results and good, non-harmful ingredients.
