Listen To The Old Wive's Tale, Vaseline Is Magic And Here Are 11 Reasons Why

Vaseline, the strongest moisturizer to bust dry skin, is the best thing since sliced bread. My mom's obsession has been passed down to me ever since she started using the gentle skin therapy on my precious newborn baby skin. Skin is our largest organ of the human body and must be taken care of as such! I remember watching my mom spend our nights smearing pounds of vaseline on her winter-dry hands to ensure baby soft hands in the morning.

I've been hooked since then.

1. How cute are these baby Vaselines?!

Portable Vaseline! My dream come true.

2. The excitement when Vaseline Intense Care Body Lotion came out

My roommate showed me this scrumptious smelling lotion—Cocoa Radiant body lotion—and, I swear, your skin not only glows, but you want to lick it off it smells so good. Don't judge me until you've used it.

3. The tinted lip is literally the only lip balm I'll ever use

Sorry, Kylie, but your lip kit isn't for me. I'm more than fulfilled with my Vaseline rosy lips.

4. The plethora of uses

It's a miracle worker for almost anything! I swear it's magic. Vaseline's use is more valuable than just what it's advertised for.

5. Vaseline + SPF = mindblown

Yes, you heard it right! There are Vaseline products with SPF! Skincare, here I come!

6. How much Vaseline would it take to fill a bathtub?

Just asking for a friend.

7. Profession: Vaseline hoarder

Hi, my name is Jennifer Kustanovich and I have bottles of Vaseline in my car, under my bed, in my pocket, in my bag, and by this time I wouldn't be surprised if bottles fall out as I walk by.

8. I've consumed a ton of it. Will I die?

Okay, but what is Vaseline? Petroleum jelly doesn't sound like something I want to rub all over myself, but yet I do it anyway. Any doctors or pre-med students to help me with this dilemma? I don't want to end up on TLC's "My Strange Addictions" where my friends drag me to a doctor who tells me that I've been licking, eating, and slathering poison.

For your information, I don't eat the product; but when it's on my lips all day, it's bound to be unintentionally ingested.

10. Jennifer Aniston has the same obsession

Jennifer Aniston. Need I say more? Her porcelain wrinkle-free face is all due to the works of Vaseline.

11. Beauty insider tip: Vaseline is natural mascara

Beyonce is even behind this trick: spread a dollop of the magic on your lashes in the morning/night and watch the sorcery for yourself.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
