Beauty Budget Tuesday – Vaseline

I know this is quite an obvious choice for a budget item, but did you know Vaseline can be used so many ways in your everyday beauty routine? 

I've been doing a little research and it has opened my eyes up and I think I'll be using this little jar of petroleum jelly a lot more!

A jar will set you back anywhere between $2.50 - $5.00 

So here are some uses, some are obvious some not quite so much

  • Lip Balm & Moisturise for Dry Spots on the Skin
  • Removing Makeup (especially eye makeup gently)
  • Hair Serum (just on the ends)
  • Taming eyebrows & also on the eyelashes to make them glossy if you don't want to bother with mascara
  • On the cuticles as a cuticle oil
  • On your teeth to keep you smiling + prevent you getting lipstick stains on your teeth (they do this all the time in Toddlers & Tiaras... I'm obsessed with this show, seriously check it out)
  • To sustain your perfume scent longer, dab some on where you put your perfume and your scent will last longer - thanks to lollipop26 for this tip! I love it!
So many uses for such a cheap product!

Now lets listen to the wonderful sounds of Stone Temple Pilots and their hit song Vaseline, just to keep in the theme of course :)










*sorry guys this was scheduled to post last night but for some reason didn't work!
