8 Ways to Use Vaseline You Had No Idea About
Petroleum jelly is a truly universal product that can be used in any sphere, from cosmetology to repair.
We at 5-Minute Crafts want to share 8 methods of how to use Vaseline that might come in handy in everyday life.
1. Make liquid eyeshadow.
1️⃣ Using a wooden spatula (a spoon will do), place a small amount of Vaseline in a glass container.
2️⃣ Pour cosmetic glitter in there.
3️⃣ Add dry shadows in the colors you would like to get in the end into this mixture.
4️⃣ Mix thoroughly.
5️⃣ Draw the mixture into a syringe without a needle.
6️⃣ Pour the liquid eyeshadow into a container that’s convenient for you.
2. Secure a suction cup.
1️⃣ If your sponge holder keeps falling, check whether its suction cups work well. If they do but the holder falls down anyway, try using Vaseline.
2️⃣ Take a paper towel and apply a small amount of Vaseline to it.
3️⃣ Apply Vaseline onto the inner part of the suction cups.
4️⃣ Secure the holder in its place. The place where the suction cups will be located should be clean and dry.
3. Make eyelashes look thicker.
1️⃣ Take a clean mascara brush and apply Vaseline to it.
