I heard putting Vaseline on eyelashes helps make them grow but I'm not sure if it actually works.

It's a myth it doesn't work. It can actually lead to infections and that.

Ok so when I put on the Vaseline do I put it on the base of my eyelids or just the tips of the lashes?

Ladies, this is a myth! Any of the BL moderators can give you a good explanation why.

Good! Vaseline can help lashes both grow and stay healthy, especially if you wear mascara. Instead of just caking it on wash a old mascara brush or buy a clear one at the store and apply it that way!

Vasaline is not good for your lashes it makes it appear that they are longer and thicker but it won't make them grow any faster, you could develop an infection from it.

Bad. it will clog pores and is not going to help condition them. its a sealer which is why it can lead to infections.
coconut oil is good if your trying to condition them which you should be doing after wearing mascara daily. and nothing makes them grow besides your genetics.

PLEASE DO NOT USE VASELINE ON YOUR EYELASHES.
the length of your eyelashes is genetic, and the only thing that will make them grow is Latisse. by putting Vaseline on your lashes, you accomplish nothing. it doesn't even condition your lashes like oils would, because Vaseline is a SEALER. That means that it seals the follicles of your lashes, and doesn't allow your eyes to flush out the bacteria that's accumulating. Because of that, Vaseline can cause cysts and infections. The people that are claiming that this actually works have not seen growth, they have seen product build up.

Don't think so but you can use it as an eye makeup remover.

BAD BAD BAD! It traps in all the bad bacteria and actually can stunt the growth (not saying it will, but it can) It can cause infections and doesn't even moisturize them! Its one of the biggest myths out there.

BAAAD. The only thing that makes your lashes longer is Latisse. Vaseline will only give the illusion. Remember, Vaseline is a sealant. Putting it around your eyes seals in bacteria & can cause an infection!

Vaseline doesn't work. It can clog the eyelash follicles and cause infections. It's petroleum oil jelly type stuff so there is nothing in there to help with eyelash growth.
