Hello every one, today am gonna talk about various uses of vaseline or petroleum jelly..
Vaseline is the name of a brand which became a generic trademark of the term petroleum jelly.. petroleum jelly is such a versatile product and has various beauty and other uses.. There are some well known uses of these wonder-jelly like using it as a lip balm for soft lips and using it as a hand cream etc but there are few unusual and unique uses that most people are not aware of.. Now lets see them..
1. TIGHT JEWELRY
Am sure that all of us have gone through this situation where we struggled a lot to take off a tight ring from our finger or if you had your ears or nose pierced and you wanna change your earring for the first time after piercing and it is gonna pain terribly.. Here is the solution for this problem.. take a little bit of vaseline or petroleum jelly and apply it on your finger or ears or nose and then try taking off your jewelry it is gonna just slide away without any trouble.
2. LONG LASTING PERFUME :
For your perfume to last longer rub in some vaseline on your wrist , back of your neck or wherever you are gonna apply your perfume.. This way the vaseline acts as a base to hold your perfume and your perfume will last much longer than it normally would.
3. EYE BROW GEL :
For a perfectly tamed eyebrow that does not move out of its place, apply little bit of vaseline and brush your eyebrows with a old mascara wand.. this way your eyebrows just stay in place..
4.TIGHT ZIP
If your zipper got stuck and you struggle every time to pull your zip , apply little bit of vaseline to your zip and it is gonna run smoothly..
5. TO REMOVE LIPSTICK STAIN FROM CLOTHES
It is normally very difficult to remove lipstick stain from your clothes.. so here is the solution , apply little bit of vaseline where you wanna remove the stain and rub it for few second and wipe it off with tissue paper and then wash your cloth as you normally would.. lipstick stain is gonna vanish once you rinse the cloth..
6. SHINY SHOES AND HANDBAG
If you are carrying a leather purse or a hand bag or you are wearing leather shoes, which is little bit old and it has lost its shine , apply some vaseline to give it a fresh look.. it will be as good as new..
7. AS A CUTICLE OIL
You can use vaseline as a cuticle oil for keeping your cuticles soft and supple..
8. TO PREVENT DYE STAIN IN YOUR FACE
If you are applying hair dye by yourself, you might accidentally touch your skin around your hair line and it is very difficult to remove the stain from your skin.. for preventing this apply vaseline along your hair line and back of your neck.. this way vaseline does not allow the dye to stain your skin.. even if you accidentally dropped dye in your skin you can easily wipe it off with tissue..
9. FOR A PERFECT MANICURE :
similar to that of hair dye you might accidentally apply nail polish all over your cuticle or skin around your nails.. to avoid this rub little bit of vaseline along your cuticle and skin around your nails avoiding the finger nails.. and then apply your nail polish.. vaseline does not allow the nail polish to stain on your skin.. of course if you dont apply vaseline you can dip q tip in nail polish remover and then remove all those stained nail polishes but applying vaseline is easier than that..
10.AS A FACE ILLUMINATOR
Vaseline can also be used as face illuminator to give that fresh jewy look.. i am not a big fan of matte look and i always uses this tip to bring that glow to my skin.. after applying makeup take some vaseline and slightly rub it in your cheek bone and brow bone area, so that when light hits those area it gives nice glowing effect to your skin..
11, TO PREVENT NAIL POLISH BOTTLES FROM SHUTTING CLOSE
Sometime it becomes really difficult to open a nail polish bottle cap since the nail polish around the neck of the bottle becomes dry and makes to cap to closed tightly.. to avoid this apply little bit of vaseline around the neck of the nail polish bottle and then close the bottle..this way you dont have to worry about your favorite nail polish shutting closed.
12. MAKEUP REMOVER
Vaseline is a wonderful makeup remover.. it removes even water proof makeup.. and it is very gentle..
13. FOR BABY SOFT FEET
To get baby soft feet , apply some vaseline to your feet at night and cover it with socks.. and you will wake up with a soft smooth feet.. i did this regularly and it got rid of my cracked heels..
14. FOR A SOFT ELBOWS AND KNEES
Elbows and knees tends to get dry more, so moisturizer is just not enough to make your elbows and knees soft.. apply some vaseline to your elbows and knees to make it smooth and soft..
15. FOR A SOFT LIPS
Okay i know this is very familiar but i thought it is worth mentioning.. i am a huge lip balm addict.. i always constantly apply lip balms.. some times i come back to vaseline.. to be honest it is far far far better than any other lip balms in the market.. i have heard people saying that applying vaseline makes your lips darker.. but thats just a myth.. it makes your lips baby soft.. you can also add some sugar to vaseline and use it as lip scrub..
