I've been noticing a lot of people using Vaseline on their skin as some sort of moisture barrier, and I'm really not sure if that's safe or even right for me. I have combination skin that's also pretty acne-prone, and I'm worried about whether Vaseline could potentially mess things up. Do you think it's safe for me to try it, or should I steer clear?

there many other moisturizers made for facial skin, you opt for one among them,using moisturizer is healthy to protect your skin from pollution and light and also temperature variations.
