1. DIY lip balm with vaseline
Using vaseline, you can make your own DIY lip balm and drink mix powder. Grab a drink mix powder in a fun shade, and mix it with a dollop of vaseline in a small bowl.
Mix it really well until you tint the vaseline. Then, store it in a small container.
Then, just apply it to your lips using your finger whenever you need to!
This is such a fun and inexpensive beauty hack using vaseline.
2. Unstick a zipper with vaseline
Another vaseline use is to unstick a zipper! Grab some vaseline, and put it on a Q-tip. Apply it above and below the zipper.
Then, pull the zipper up and down. Keep applying vaseline until you have a really smooth up and down movement.
3. Perfume vaseline hack
Vaseline can come in handy when applying perfume or any kind of fragrance.
Applying a small amount of vaseline to the desired area and spraying the perfume onto the vaseline will hold the scent for much longer.
4. DIY lip scrub
Vaseline also makes a great lip scrub for those dry and cracked lips. Simply put a little dab of vaseline right on the palm of your hand.
Then, sprinkle some granulated sugar- the kind you have in your kitchen. Mix it all together with your finger.
Then, rub it all over your lips. The sugar will act as an exfoliator, and the vaseline will help keep your lips moisturized.
Take a warm wet cloth and wipe it off!
5. Buffing leather shoes
Have a pair of scuffed leather shoes or maybe a scuffed leather handbag?
Grab a little vaseline and a soft cloth and buff it out. You don’t need much at all; simply fill in and cover up that scuff mark.
This vaseline life hack leaves your shoes or handbag looking fantastic and new.
6. Using vaseline as a highlighter
Vaseline makes an excellent highlighter! Just dab a little on your finger and put it on the top of your cheekbones. You could also add it to the bridge of your nose or the top of your lip, anywhere you’d typically put a highlighter.
This works really well in a pinch.
