This is the first winter that I have used Vaseline as a beauty staple. why? because in my mind I could not see it as having any healing properties...however upon reading that it locks in moisture, thus becoming effective in winter, also used to lock in whatever other products already used I was sold. So I started experimenting and I must say..it has become my life saver. in a span of 2 months I have almost used an entire jar! I used it after a hot shower, I use it after I shave, I used it for dry lips and dry patches on my body. I mix it with tea tree oil and apply it to any parts of my body that needs healing. I am pleasantly surprised :)
