What do you use Vaseline for?
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.

When I get a cut on my hands and they are very dry my skin heals over the wound, but the wound still stays there. Callouses just kind of grow over it and it gets painful and shitty. I put a glob of Vaseline on it and cover it with a bandaid or something and I a few days it's back to normal.
That's a lot of the reason why Neosporin or any other antibiotic ointments help you heal faster. There's petrolatum in all those products.
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.
