Vaseline...Tips how to use it

Petroleum jelly is a classic beauty product,known for ages and it's a great secret weapon when it comes to beauty. It has hundreds of uses,it's affordable and easily avaliable in drougstores and pharmacies.
Also it is a must have for fall (in my opinion),so i'm going to share with you some really good tips how to use it.








Intense Moisturizer
Apply it on elbows,knees,feet,lips,or anywhere else where you have dry skin for a quick deep moisturizing treatment.

Eyelash Treatment
Sweep through eyelashes to protect,contition,and replenish the hairs. Use it before you go to bed.

Brow Gel
Use a makeup spool with a little petroleum on it and brush through brows to keep them in place.

Eyeshadow Primer
Mix equal parts of cream concealer and petroleum jelly to get your own DIY primer.

Highlight
Dab along upper cheekbones,down your nose bridge,over your brown bone and on your cupids bow to creat a glowing,dewy look. But be careful - don't use it too much otherwise you'll look greasy!

Lip Scrub
Mix a little petroleum jelly with some brown sugar or salt,and use it to scrub your lips one or twice a week. They will be soft and moisturized.

Lip Balm
Mix it with a creamy lipstick to get your own  coloured lipbalm.

Hair Balm
Rub a TINY,TINY amount of jelly between your fingers and then pat down over any unruly hair for a sleek look or to hide slip ends.

Cuticle and Nail treatment
Rub around cuticles and over nail to keep them shinny,strong and moisturized.Also helps with hand peeling.

Perfume lasting
Apply a light amount of jelly on your neck before putting on perfume to make it last longer.

After-Shave
Use it after shaving to prevent redness,dry skin and ingrown hairs.

Foot Saver
Prevent chaffing from shoes by applying a layer of jelly over areas that are prone to irritation.

Glue Remover
Use a Q-tip coated with jelly and run along your eyelashes to get rid of leftover lash glue.

TOP 5 LIP BALMS


I love lip balm,i really do. I had over 400 of them,but just recently i throw many of them away,because they were old or i didn't use them anymore. But they are so cute and i keep them everywhere- on my bedtable,in my purse,in my car,..everywhere.
I've been collecting them for about 3 years now and eyerytime they launhc a new one,i have to have it.

I picked out 5 of them which are my favourite and decided to make a post about it.

  • THE BODY SHOP,SPICED VANILLA LIP BALM
This one is my favourite one. It smells amazing, to me,it smells like warm gingerbread cookies and it's not at all artificial.
The consistency of the lipbalm is creamy and rich,it almost melts on the lips and it's not too sticky or too liquidy--it's in the middle. As for the shimmer,it's not too glittery,it's a barely there fvery fine golden shimmer that's barely noticeable,it just adds that little bit of shine you need for an everyday natural look.
It is moisturising,it protects my lips from chapping,unlike other lipglosses that dry my lips out,but don't expect uber moisturising properties from a lipgloss,that's what chapstick is for.
As for the price,I believe it's affordable.I think the original price was 4.50 euros.


  • VASELINE, ROSY LIPS
I got this one while i was in Manchester, I think i got it in Tesco and it was about 2pounds,i guess.
It's really good one, it leaves my lips fully moisturized, really soft and gives me a perfect rosy tint. I think this one is perfect for summer,not just because it gives you a really nice tint,but also because it's really light,it does not feel heavey at all.



  • LABELLO, MILK AND HONEY
I love Labello lip products and this one is my favourite in their line of lip balms. It smells gorgeous, totally like honey,it kinda reminds me of Lush Honey I washed the kids soap. And the packaging is so cute,you can see two litte bees on it. I keep this one in my purse all the time,and i think this is my third one. The price was about 2euros.



  • LIP SMACKER, VANILLA
My friend got this one for me while she was in the United Stated because i really wanted to get some lip smackers,because i'm obsessed with their packaging,they are so tiny and cute. And the vanilla one is my favourite one again because of the smell. It smells like warm vanilla cake (well,at least to me). It's also colourless,perfect for everyday.


  • DIOR LIP GLOW, COLOR REVIVER BALM
I love this one because it smells really minty and it feels so refreshing on my lips. And it also gives me the perfect pink lip colour. And the packaging is amazing, you can tell it's Dior - light pink with silver details. And it also stays on for a long time. I think it was around 25euros.
