    Favourite perfume is too expensive for everyday use? Spray a few pumps into a 150ml of vaseline, mix thoroughly, check if the smell is strong enough, add a few pumps if necessary.

    Your perfume now lasts a LOT longer.

    Apply the vaseline mixture to the usual spots (wrists, neck etc…)

        I don’t but for those who do, this trick saves some bucks.

        I don’t like being in the same room where people use hairspray, spray deodorants and such. I have to cough immediately.

        When using perfume with vaseline the scent is lingering longer but is not as aggressive.

      Don’t use WD-40 for that. It’s not a lubricant, it’s a cleaner. Use silicone lube or oil instead.

          the CEO of McDonalds sells food he refuses to eat but claims is good for you.

          so your point in “inventor says its goo” with no proof he actually ate it… isn’t valid.

            It’s I believe “she don’t use jelly” by the flaming lips. But also Vaseline isn’t that toxic to eat (I would not recommend eating it) especially if you were only using it to butter toast.

            It’s just a fun, silly song.

    A thin layer on new car battery posts when you put a new one in to help protect from corrosion. Cheaper than the anti-corrosion spray and you probably have some lying around.
