40 Uses for Vaseline You Never Knew Before

Getting Rid of Blackheads

Blackheads are not only unsightly but can also develop into large, painful spots if you try and squeeze them – which is always tempting. There are hundreds of skincare products on the market that claim to be able to rid your entire face of blackheads – however, conveniently for the brands, but inconveniently for you, most of them are pretty expensive.

Moreover, there aren’t that many that actually work as advertised – so, more often than not, you find that they’re actually a waste of money. Vaseline, however, is a very cheap game-changer. Wash your face, cover it in Vaseline, and then put plastic wrap over it (make sure you can breathe!). Place a warm towel over the plastic and wait five minutes. This will loosen the blackheads, which will wash off along with the Vaseline.
