The benefits of petroleum jelly for removing eyelash extensions without damaging natural eyelashes.
Petroleum jelly has properties that can soften the glue to attach eyelash extension hairs to natural eyelashes. The glue used is generally soluble in petroleum or mineral oil-based materials such as petroleum jelly. When petroleum jelly is carefully applied to eyelashes with eyelash extensions, it can loosen the glue bond without damaging or roughly pulling out the natural lashes.
