It might sound unusual at first, but mixing Vaseline and banana creates one of the easiest and most effective skin treatments you can make at home. This simple combo works like a natural beauty secret—hydrating, softening, and reviving the skin without any harsh chemicals.
Why Banana?
Bananas are rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, and natural enzymes that:
- Brighten the skin
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines
- Gently exfoliate and renew dull or dry areas
Why Vaseline?
Vaseline acts as a powerful moisture barrier, locking in hydration and protecting the skin. It softens rough patches and helps repair dry or damaged skin—especially in areas like elbows, knees, heels, and hands.
The Magic Banana-Vaseline Mask
Ingredients:
- 1/2 ripe banana (mashed)
- 1 teaspoon Vaseline
Instructions:
- Mash the banana until smooth.
- Add Vaseline and mix well until it becomes a creamy paste.
- Apply the mixture to your face, hands, feet, or any dry areas.
- Leave it on for 15–20 minutes.
- Gently wipe off with a warm, damp cloth and pat dry.
Use 2–3 times a week for soft, radiant, and deeply hydrated skin.
What to Expect
With regular use, you may notice:
- Smoother, brighter skin
- Fewer dry patches and flakiness
- A natural glow without needing expensive creams
Simple, Affordable, and Shockingly Effective
Sometimes the best skincare treatments are hiding in your kitchen drawer or bathroom shelf. This banana and Vaseline trick is gentle, natural, and works wonders—especially if your skin needs a little extra love.

Even though there are dozens of different experts that work on the appearances of characters in movies, they aren’t immune to making mistakes. And in the end, viewers may catch these fails in makeup or costume choices that couldn’t have possibly existed during the time in which the movie was set.
We at Bright Side decided to watch some of our favorite movies and read some fashion history books to find the mistakes makeup artists and costume designers have made in popular films.
Gone with the Wind
No matter how trendy Scarlett O’Hara was, she couldn’t have predicted the clothing trends for decades in advance. Her famous slim-fitting red dress with feathers and rhinestones has nothing to do with Civil War fashion — it was inspired more by styles from the 1930s and 1940s.
Julius Caesar
In the 1953 film, most of the female characters wore extravagant bullet bras. In Ancient Rome, women would wear a strophium, a prototype for the modern bra, but these weren’t bullet bras.
Legends of the Fall
Trying to create a romantic look, costume designers ignored the historical facts. Brad Pitt’s character has beautiful blonde hair and facial hair but these things were unacceptable for the time period. More and more men were choosing to don big mustaches and short hair at this time.
King Arthur
The film, which is set in the fifth century, portrays knights in heavy metal armor. But until the fourteenth century, such armor was made of leather, and only mail armor was made of metal.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The film is about events that happened in the ’90s and the clothes look pretty accurate, however, they’re still not perfect. Dudley Dursley is wearing G-Unit shorts — a brand that was created by 50 Cent in 2003.
Hello, Dolly!
The movie is set in New York at the end of the nineteenth century when such a hairstyle, lip gloss, and eye makeup didn’t exist. But the movie still got 3 Oscars and became one of the most important films of the decade.
Queen Margot
Throughout the entire film, the characters are wearing beautiful dresses with open shoulders. They look great but in the sixteenth century, women never ignored shifts (or chemise in French). These pieces of clothing protected them from the cold, absorbed sweat, and were really easy to wash.
Another mistake costume designers made was the way the main character’s hair was let down. Based on the few portraits we have of Margaret of Valois, she had curly hair that she wore up.
The Danish Girl
The Danish Girl starts in 1926 but in the first half of the film, we see women in slim-fitting clothes that have nothing to do with the fashion of the 1920s.
At the beginning of the film, Gerda has a hairstyle that was actually quite outdated for the setting that favored waved or bobbed hair.
A Dangerous Method
In one scene, Keira Knightley appears only in her corset, which is a contradiction to the original rules that came along with wearing this piece of clothing. A woman would never wear a corset alone.
Bonus: Mary Queen of Scots
In Mary Queen of Scots, Saoirse Ronan is wearing asymmetric earrings, which were non-existent in sixteenth-century Scotland.
In your opinion, do you think such mistakes are serious or no big deal?
