Vaseline Uses

Vaseline Petroleum Jelly is celebrating its 140th Anniversary! Woo Hoo, and I decided to help celebrate by telling my readers about the many uses for this product. I love Vaseline Jelly because it's great for so many different things such as:

* Put a coat on your eyelashes before you go to bed. Lots of people swear by this – and say it will make your lashes grow longer and thicker over time.

* Put a coat of vaseline on your feet at night, cover them with socks and wake up to softer feet – every day!

* Put vaseline on your elbows every day – they will stay soft!

* Put Vaseline on your cuticles several times a day for softer and better looking cuticles every day.

* Put Vaseline on chapped lips

* Shaving: just put a very thin layer on the area that needs shaving and shave. Don’t use water. Also don’t apply too much product or it will plug up your razor. In addiction, vaseline can get a bit greasy, but it will leave your skin soft, smooth and moisturized.

* Softens elbows: apply some vaseline to elbows daily. It will soften them

* Maintains fragrance longer: apply a thin layer of vaseline on your wrist before spraying perfume on. It will make the scent last longer

* Seals in split ends: if you put some vaseline on your split ends, it will seal them in and make it look like they aren’t there. But don’t do this too often as it will take a couple of shampoos to remove vaseline from your hair

* Use it for diaper rash

* Moisturizes dry skin. It's really great in the cold, dry winter months that are fast approaching!

* Scrub: mix petrolatum jelly with sea salt to make your own scrub

Try some of these ideas for yourself!!!
