Everyone always tells me that vaseline is an amazing product that really does everything. Well I can believe that but what is everything? I'd like to hear YOUR vaseline tricks! Besides the awesome lip balm that it is!

I sometimes use vaseline as an eyebrow gel. Works great but I'd use a light light hand when doing so. My boyfriend has eczema on his face so he uses vaseline around his eyes to help with the patchy dry parts and also itchiness.

Applying a small amount of vaseline with a mascara wand thats clean to your lashes helps to strengthen them and make them longer. Have been doing it for over a year and its amazing. Also applying some to your hands and putting some cotton gloves to go to sleep you wake up with incredibly soft hands.

Brow wax - to smooth stray hairs. It tends to give my brows a bit of glossiness, which isn't that great, so a wee bit of it should do the trick.

It's a really nice product to make cream blushes... Sometimes I'll smear it on my eyelids, cheekbones and lips for a "I just danced the night away at some hot club" kinda deal lol, which is how I got this look:

Oh and also, if you mix Vaseline with some lipstick, you can make a cheap and moisturizing lip gloss!

In the pic, the pink gloss was made from a sample Clinique lipstick I hardly use and the brownish one was a NYX lippie.

Wow! Those are some great tips!

How do you exactly use it as a brow wax?

Also helps prevent you from getting a mess on your ears/forehead/temples when dying your hair!

Heta - I usually use a qtip then swirl it around in the vaseline lightly then using a light hand go over my brows and just shaping them into place. Afterwards I use a brow grooming tool and just brush it though. Works great and lasts all day.

I literally carry it in my purse with me in the winter. I put it on dry skin, chapped lips, the heels of my feet so I don't get blisters, my eyebrows, its just one of those things to keep handy. My sister even shaves her legs with it and apparently that works well, but obvi clogs your razor a lot.. lol

i'm allergic to any type of fragrances in lip products (even if it doesn't have a specific flavor like cherry, or watermelon..), so i definitely use it as a lip balm, but it's also great for making lip gloss like vivian said. another way you can make it is to use up a blush that's cracked in the pan, or an appropriate colored & lip safe eyeshadow. mix it up, and you have a brand new lip gloss. :)

I use vaseline on my hands and elbows and knees before I self tan! Also when I wear heels, makes it so much easier! I use vaseline to take my eye makeup! Around my hairline when I dye my hair. Lets see.. what else.. chapstick. But best of all I use it to remove wax after well waxing!

You can make lip glosses by combining it with an eye shadow and you can use it for chapped lips and my FAVORITE way to use it is putting it on my lashes at night so the grow fuller and longer!

After I take off my makeup and wash my face if I still have a little mascara or eyeliner smeared underneath my lower lashes I'll take a q-tip w/ some vaseline on it and it will clean up that mess real good. :)

My mom told me that you could rub a small amount in your shoes if you think you are going to get blisters, but idk how well that really works. haha
