2. Fake those split ends and dry hair with healthy looking hair
Who does not have split ends? wanna hide them? yes you totally can! you can hide 'em split ends and make your dry lifeless hair look healthy! Vaseline gives shine to your dry hair making them look completely flawless but you should apply it correctly and in the right amount otherwise your hair will end up looking greasy and oily and you definitely don't want that right? so let's see how to do it....
How to do it:
Just take a very little amount of the jelly and apply it to the ends of your hair and your tips and then comb your hair through but remember do not apply it to your roots, never, otherwise your hair will end up looking greasy and you won't get the desired results.
3. Tame your eyebrows with Vaseline
Do you have bushy eyebrows? want 'em to stay in place without plucking or trimming? Vaseline comes to the rescue. Plus it also helps in promoting the growth of your eyebrows.
How to do it:
If you want to tame your eyebrows,
Take an old and clean mascara wand and coat it with Vaseline, now brush your brows with this wand so as to tame your eyebrows and keep 'em in place.
If you want to grow thicker eyebrows,
Brush your eyebrows with Vaseline using a mascara wand and do this everyday before going to bed and keep it overnight and then wash 'em. You'll see good results within a month or two.
4. Prep your lips before applying lipstick
Don't you just hate it, when you apply your favorite matte lipstick and after some time your lips becomes dry and chapped? yep we've all been there. So why does this happens? its probably because you did not moisturize 'em properly. When you prep your lips before applying lipstick your lips tend to remain hydrated and your lipstick lasts longer.
How to do it:
Just take a very very little amount of Vaseline and apply it all over your lips, remember never apply too much of the jelly as you won't get the perfect color of the lipstick then. After applying the jelly apply your favorite lipstick and you're good to go.
5. Paint your nails like a pro!
We all know the struggle when our nail paint is all over our cuticles and it is very difficult to remove the paint from the cuticle. Well don't worry, this hack is a total game changer. It requires only two things, a cotton swab and Vaseline
How to do it:
Take a cotton swab and dip it in the jar of Vaseline, now rub this cotton swab on your cuticles but make sure you don't apply Vaseline on your nails. Now what this does is this creates a barrier between the nail paint and your skin so that after you've painted your nails, you can wipe off the Vaseline and any paint mistakes along with it. YAYY 😊
6. Make your makeup last long
Want your makeup to last all day? well the first thing that fades away is the eyeshadow and blush, even though you spritz tons of makeup fixing spray the eye shadow and blush still tends to fade away.
Well no more, create a dewy look that stays in place all day by using Vaseline as a primer.
How to do it:
To make your eyeshadow last long,
Just apply a very little amount of Vaseline on your eyelids and then go for your favorite eyeshadow.
To make your blush last long,
Just apply a very little amount of Vaseline on the upper side of your cheek bones or on the apples of your cheek or where ever you'd like to apply your blush and then just apply your favorite blush on top of it to make it last longer.
7. Create your own moisturizing scrub
Exfoliation is a very necessary step in any skincare routine, but after exfoliation your skin tends to get dry very quickly. So why waste thousands and hundreds on a moisturizing scrub when you can make one yourself? and in addition to this it moisturizes too at the time of scrubbing. Life Saver! It is very simple and requires only 2 ingredients.
Ingredients:
1. Fine sugar
2. Vaseline
Procedure:
For your face,
Mix 2 tbsp Vaseline with one tbsp fine sugar. Massage this scrub on your face in circular motion. Rinse and reapply a thin layer of Vaseline.
For your body,
Mix 2 tbsp of Vaseline and 1 tbsp of sea salt and massage this all over your body or where you need scrubbing the most and then rinse.
For your lips,
Take a very, very little amount of sugar and Vaseline and mix them. Rub this scrub gently on your lips to exfoliate your lips. Rinse and apply a thin layer of Vaseline on your lips.
You'll get soft, supple and glowing face, body and lips.
8. Make your lashes look long
Say goodbye to falsies. Why take extra efforts in applying falsies when you can make your lashes look long without applying one? In addition to this the glue that you use while applying falsies can be dangerous for your eyes as it may cause infection. So here's a hack which'll make your lashes look long and voluminous without the falsies. You'll be surprised by how Vaseline when applied to your lashes can make them look longer and thicker.
How to do it:
Just take a small amount of Vaseline on a cotton swab or on your old mascara wand and apply 1-2 coats of Vaseline on your lashes. Then apply your favorite mascara on top of it and you'll get longer, prettier and voluminous lashes. Plus it also acts as a primer for your lashes and will make your lashes look long all day.
In the picture below, there is nothing applied on the lashes in the first picture, in the second picture 2 coats of Vaseline is applied and in the third picture a coat of mascara is added. You can see the difference yourself.
9. Cure cracked heels
We all hate cracked heels and try our best get rid of 'em. Even a slightest crack is a big NO-NO. People suffer many problems due to cracked heels plus they look awful and you can't even wear flip-flops because those ugly cracked heels are visible through them. So how to get rid of this? keep reading...
How to do it:
Take a generous amount of petroleum jelly and massage it thoroughly onto your feet. Make sure you apply a good amount of the jelly on the cracks. Next, wear a pair of socks and go to sleep. By morning your feet will be super soft. Do this every night before going to bed and you will get good results within a month or two.
10. Remove your makeup easily
Yes Vaseline helps in removing your makeup too in addition to this it also moisturizes your skin simultaneously. Great isn't it? Now you might wonder whether it'll get sticky? It doesn't. I personally remove my makeup with Vaseline and it does a pretty good job as a makeup remover. Vaseline is the best alternative to your expensive makeup removers which may fail to moisturize your skin at the same time.
Things you'll need:
A cotton pad or wipes.
Vaseline Petroleum Jelly (duh)
How to do it:
Just take a generous amount of jelly on a cotton pad. First rub it all over your eyes,until all the makeup gets removed from your eyes. Then take another cotton pad with Vaseline and rub it all over your face. Continue doing it until every last bit of makeup residue comes off. Later, rinse your face with cold water and if you want you can apply a thin layer of Vaseline all over your face.
