What do you use Vaseline for? (lemm.ee)

I have a tub of Vaseline and have hardly scratched the surface. I'm curious whether anyone uses it for anything other than their lips.

Now I wonder if it would work on those tiny painful as fuck cuts that you get around your fingernails during winter when your skin is dry. I've been using those expensive Compeed bandaids which do provide instant relief but if it's just about blocking the air then maybe Vaseline could be just as good.

Absolutely it does. I work with chalk and know exactly what you're talking about. The super treatment is to lube up and wear cotton gloves. Really works quick.
