The well-known jar of petroleum jelly that everyone is familiar with. Probably, you have one sitting on a shelf somewhere in your house. Beyond being an effective moisturizer for dry skin, Vaseline has a number of other uses. Here are just 5 of them:
1. Eyelash enhancer
Going for a no-makeup look, but you can still make your lashes look dark, thick, and glossy. Apply a small dab of Vaseline and smooth it over your eyelashes. Also, if you apply a bit on your eyelashes every night, it will help keep them healthy and might even help them grow longer – urban myth?
2. Lip balm
Suffering from cracked lips? Try applying a dab of Vaseline over your lips (or any dry patches of skin) overnight.
3. Perfume prep
Rub a little Vaseline onto the inside of your wrists and any other pulse points. Moisturized skin will help to retain the scents of perfume.
4. Makeup remover
Vaseline is perfect as an inexpensive, gentle makeup remover. Massage onto your face and eyes, using circles. Wipe off with and rinse your face with warm water and a cleanser.
5. Eyebrow shaper
With your ring finger, smooth a light coat of Vaseline to your eyebrows after shaping them. It will keep your brows in perfect place for the day.
