If you happen to find yourself without lotion or makeup remover wipes, just use Vaseline to remove makeup and have a very clean face.
Moisturizes your skin
Use petroleum jelly on dry lips to moisturize them and prevent chapping. Mix Vaseline with a little aloe vera gel for an even more effective effect. You can also use Vaseline to moisturize your hands and the rest of your body.
Increases the duration of makeup
If you mix a little Vaseline with a lipstick, the effect of the latter will be much longer. Apply a little Vaseline to your eyelids before applying makeup to achieve the same effect.
Exfoliating
Mix some petroleum jelly with two tablespoons of salt or sugar to make a wonderful body scrub.
Makes eyelashes grow back
One of the most frequent uses of Vaseline is to stimulate the regrowth of eyelashes. Apply a small amount of Vaseline directly to your eyelashes before going to sleep.
Soften cuticles
Apply a little Vaseline to your nails at night before going to sleep to keep your cuticles soft and healthy.
Protects hair
Vaseline is an excellent product to prevent irritation or allergies in the scalp when we dye it. Before applying the dye, apply a little Vaseline around your ears, neck or forehead and any other parts that are in contact with the roots of your hair.
Prevents squeaks
You don’t have to spend money on specific products against squeaking doors or cabinets. Apply a little Vaseline, which costs much less and has the same effect.
Polish the wood
Use a cloth to apply a little Vaseline to the surface of your wooden furniture to bring it back to its original shine. This product prevents dust from sticking to surfaces.
Unlock a zipper
If the zipper on your trousers or jacket is stuck, use a little Vaseline, whose lubricating action will resolve the situation in just a few seconds.
Polish your shoes
If you want to get your shoes back to the shine they had when they were new, use a little Vaseline and apply it with a cloth.
Protect frames
Before painting a window, photo or mirror frame, grease the part you don’t need to paint with Vaseline. By doing this you will create a protective layer that will prevent the paint from settling on those spots.
Now that you know what the alternative uses of Vaseline are, we are sure that you will be convinced that you always have a jar available.
