6 Amazing Things I Bet You Didn't Know Vaseline Could Do...

I can almost guarantee that the majority of people reading this either use Vaseline currently or have used it before. Vaseline is one of my favourite beauty products and I always have a pot handy, its just an affordable product (on sale usually for around £1.99) and you can pick it up from pretty much every drugstore/ superstore; but here are some things I bet you didn't know Vaseline could do.

1. Put Vaseline on whatever area of skin you spray your perfume on, then apply the perfume and it will help the scent last for longer.

 

2. Perfect for Halloween! Once you have carved your pumpkin (or any vegetable you want to carve) cover the exposed edges with Vaseline to prevent them drying up or spoiling (but remember you cant eat it after you have applied the Vaseline!)

 

3. Apply a small amount to your leather handbag that is in need of a bit of added shine, leave for 5 minutes or so and before you know it your handbag will look as good as new! You can do the same to your leather shoes but be aware dirt and dust are likely to stick to it.

 

4. Before painting your nails apply Vaseline around the nail edge (not the actual nail but the skin surrounding it) and when you have finished painting your nails where you may have got some onto your skin it should simply wipe off with a tissue or warm water, but make sure your nails are completely dry before you attempt to wipe the Vaseline off!

 

5. You can use it as an exfoliant if you simply mix with sea salt and wash off in the shower, I can guarantee that you will come out of the shower with amazing feeling skin!

 

6. If you apply a small amount of Vaseline onto your eyelashes before you go to sleep you should wake up with longer, fuller looking lashes than before! But don't use too much or your lashes may stick together!
