Obsessed with: Vaseline

Okay, so I know that this product has been around since my grandmother was a youngin'. But, I swear to god this stuff really is the best old time remedy and beauty product that anyone can own. For around $3.00 at any drug store you can pick up a tub of Vaseline that you can use for at least a year (a little goes a long way!) for anything and everything beauty you can think of....

So, here is the list of uses for Vaseline! :)

• To Soften dry and cracked elbows.Dry cuticles: Store a mini-Vaseline container in your purse and utilize for emergency dry cuticle moments.
• For kissable, luscious lips: Fall is a beast for drying out summary, dewy lips. Vaseline is there for you and  your irresistible pout. You can also mix Vaseline with Kool-Aid powder and make a colored (and flavored) lip gloss.
• To Help your scent stay: Softly rub Vaseline all over your perfume points (i.e. the cleavage, behind the ear, neck, and wrist) and your scent will last longer!
