11 Must Try Vaseline Hacks & Uses That Will Wow You
Hydrate Dry Feet
Take some Vaseline and rub it on the soles of your feet and then slip on some moisturizing socks. This is a great way to lock in moisture, I generally do this at bedtime.
Lip Care
Applying a small amount to your lips can help lock in moisture and make your lips feel nice and soft. This is especially great during the winter months when the weather is harsh outside.
Stuck Zipper
Find your zipper keeps locking up. Add a little Vaseline to the teeth of the zipper and gently move it up and down to help lubricate the zipper.
Earring Tip
If your ears hurt after wearing earrings for a day, dip the backs of the earrings in Vaseline. Then put your earrings in and it will help soothe your ears during the day.
Hair Dye Trick
If you color your hair at home, apply Vaseline to the frame of your face so that if you do get hair dye on your face it won’t color your skin, and you can easily wipe the Vaseline off.
Jack O Lanterns
When you go to cut out a pumpkin for Halloween, apply petroleum jelly on the inside of your pumpkin and it will help it last a lot longer. Make sure to check out these free superhero pumpkin templates or free Disney princess pumpkin patterns!
Mascara Remover
Apply Vaseline to a cotton swab and then use that to wipe away mascara with ease. No more scrubbing needed, and then wash face like you normally would. Or, you can use this recipe for DIY makeup remover.
Squeaky Hinge
If your door is a little squeaky, rub some petroleum jelly along the hinges and open and close to work it in, this will help eliminate the squeak.
Mani/Pedi
When you go to paint your nails, apply Vaseline around your nails so that if your polish touches your skin around nails it won’t stick. It makes for a cleaner manicure or pedicure and less of a mess to clean up.
Long Lasting Perfume
Apply a small dab of Vaseline where you will be spraying your perfume. Then once it dries spray on your perfume and it will make it last longer throughout the day.
Longer Lashes
If you don’t want to wear mascara but want to give your lashes a boost, apply a little Vaseline to them. It will give the effect like you are wearing mascara.
