Oh how those two little words bring back some uncomfortable memories of middle school. We’ve all used it before. When we were younger, it carried connotations of something explicit. Today, it’s the cure-all product. Ladies, Vaseline is the one product you should ALWAYS have in your beauty cabinet.
Let me list for you just a few of the things Vaseline is good for:
1. Chapped lips
2. Moisturizer (put it on your elbows every night before bed…you’ll never get that old, dry, white-ish skin)
3. Keeping your feet soft and smooth (put it on your feet at night and then put on socks)
4. Severe acne sufferers can use it to soothe overly dry skin
5. Rub a little on your front teeth to keep your smile going all day (oh what I learned being a cheerleader…)
6. Rub it on your cuticles to keep them from cracking and bleeding
7. A small amount will keep your eyebrows in their place
8. Apply a small amount on your eyelids to keep your eyeshadow in place — it will also make shadows stand out more/metallic-y (great for a night out!)
9. Protects your skin in extremely cold weather
10. When applied to your lips, it extends the time your lipstick lasts and makes it go on smoother
…and the list goes on and on and on. Frankly, you can use Vaseline for almost anything you need to do, to fix any problem or improve your daily routine.
Definitely get yourself some Vaseline today. You can buy a travel size Vaseline from Target in the $1 section. I carry it on me at all times.
But don’t leave it in your car during the summer! I’ve done that by accident and it wasn’t pretty.
