- UNAISI RATUBALAVU

EVER wondered why vaseline petroleum jelly is known as a wonder jelly for over 140 years?

That's because it has the power to lock in moisture and heal your skin in every way!

Moreover, it's non-comedogeni­c, which means it doesn't even clog your pores.

Hence, this product is perfect for both dry as well as oily skin.

If you want to know what are the major benefits of using vaseline petroleum jelly in your beauty regime, here's a list by website bebeautifu­l.in.

Glossy lips

Glossy lips have been a rage for a while now and there's hardly any reason why you shouldn't be flaunting them. The best way to get on with the trend? Just apply some vaseline petroleum jelly on your lips or mix it with your matte lipstick to get a glossy finish.

Heal wounds

Vaseline petroleum jelly can also be your go-to when it comes to healing wounds and scratches. That's because moisture helps speed up the process of healing—something that jelly can aid in.

Remove makeup

Want something affordable yet effective when it comes to removing makeup? Get your hands on vaseline petroleum jelly.

Gently put some jelly on a cotton pad and massage your skin to remove the makeup. Not only will this get rid of the extra dirt and makeup from your skin but it will also leave your skin feeling soft and supple.

Grow your lashes

Would you believe us if we said vaseline petroleum jelly can actually help your lashes grow longer? Its moisturisi­ng properties help the skin around your eyelids stay smooth and soft.

Get rid of dry skin

While oily skin has its share of bigger problems, dry skin always feels itchy and irritable.

But if you rely on that one magic product that will seal in the moisture into your skin, you're so sorted.

Let vaseline petroleum jelly's hydrating properties heal your dryness.

Seal split ends

Have too many split ends? Just rub a little bit of vaseline petroleum jelly to tame your flyaways and calm the frizz.

Tame eyebrows

We totally get this—you've been too busy for salon visits. Hence, the bushy, unruly brows. But if you wish to keep your look clean and your brows soft, make sure you apply just a wee bit of vaseline petroleum jelly on your brows.

Chapped lips

When lips lose moisture, they turn dry and chapped. This is when you need a powerful hydrating agent for your lips aka vaseline petroleum jelly.

Dewy cheekbones

The dewy makeup look has been the focal point of many runway shows during fashion weeks. How does one create this look, you wonder?

Just mix your powder blush and a wee bit of vaseline petroleum jelly and apply it on your cheeks to get a dewy glow.

Long-lasting fragrance

Want the fragrance of your perfume to stay on longer? Just apply some vaseline petroleum jelly on the points and then spray the perfume.
