Vaseline
Vaseline. It can be used for :burns, irritations, scrapes, chafing, sunburns and diaper rashes. According to the label. Another very good use is for makeup. I love vaseline (petroleum jelly, some may say) I always carry it in my school bag. My favorite use is for lipgloss. Because it doesn't have a scent, your hair doesn't stick to it, and it's great for chaped lips. I don't do this that often, but some of my friends do; they put it on their eyes. It gives it a nice glossy look, yet natural and healthy. Ouuu, and did you know it doesn't clog pores?
Other non makeup usages is that you can put it on your chops to keep you smiling. Unless you enjoy the taste. As well if you have lice, put it on your head and wear a bathing cap. And I suppose if you want to make yourself look all greased up, you could use this too, but I don't see how this would do you any good.
So anyways, next time you go to the store get some vaseline or petroleum jelly, won't cost more than a dollar.

Seriously - I have a tub of vaseline at my desk at work, in my handbag, at home...i use it on my lips thru out the day instead of reapplying my gloss (unless I'm out or something)

Just to clear this up, make sure you don't put the vaseline on your eyes, I think Sarah ment the eyelids.

Valseline, its ever so useful! I do put it on my eyelids, but never when im wearing glasses because it gets them oh so terribly greasy.

i pretty much swear by vaseline! i put it on my lips every night and in the morning they're all soft and purdy.

oh my gosh, one of the main reasons i hate using lipgloss is because my hair sticks to my lips. good to know that vaseline wont make that happen! haha i've got to experiment with the tub of vaseline in my cabinet now!

I was going to do a vaseline post!

You forgot one of the most USEFUL uses of vaseline though! Whenever you pluck your eyebrows, before put a hot washcloth over them and smear petroleum jelly on them. This opens the pores and is like a lubricant so it is not as painful!

vaseline can clog your pores, so try not to put it anywhere on your face except for your lips and eyelids.
