Vaseline Lip Therapy with Aloe Vera

Guys out there: I'm sure that so many of you cannot understand the concept of why you see so many women who insist on using, swearing by, and carrying at least 5 little pots of Vaseline around with them. WHY!? I hear you cry. What is the need to rely on an insignificant little pot of manky looking goo that's a load of petroleum jelly! I am here to help to try and explain the myth of Vaseline; why you either love it or hate it, and to also tell you why I, the wonderful (pfff) MissTopaz can't go anywhere without it in my handbag. Vaseline Intensive Care (http://www.vaseline.com/vic.html) is a ... more

On holiday in Fuertaventura last year, my partner suffered excruciating sunburn, no sympathy please, he did not take precautions !!! Now, I had heard of all the soothing properties that Aloe Vera is supposed to have, so, in desparation (meaning I could not stand the wails of pain any longer) I stepped outside and tore off one of the huge Aloe leaves that were growing in abundance.

A few years ago, I started to develop a slight addiction to lip balm. Since then, I always have a small tub of lib balm with me. A couple of weeks ago, my lip balm ran out before I had had chance to buy a new one, so I rushed to the bathroom to see if there was anything I could use instead.

I must have used so many different lip balms but vaseline is better than almost all of them for making lips soft. So the next day I went out to buy a ... more

Since being at college, all of my friends have always been good friends with Vera but it's only up until now that i've properly met Vera and have found her to be a very loyal friend indeed and when i speak of Vera i mean Aloe Vera. There comes a time when everyones' skin, especially lips become chapped, dry or cracked and i personally have a big problem in both cases but didn't really bother to do anything about it until my very red sore dry hands and cracked lips were screaming at me, but not literally of course. As i said above, all of my friends are loyal friends to that small vaseline tin ... more

Usually I am someone that purchases lip balm or lip-gloss to make my lips shiny and to protect them and up until now have been entirely faithful to these ranges. But I am someone who always has to buy anything, because it is on 'offer.' Which is how Lisa's Lip therapy lesson begins! ~~~What made me purchase Vaseline's Lip Therapy with Aloe Vera?~~~ ----------------------------------------​----------------------------------------​--------------- I am a stickler for offers and on my family's weekly routine visit to Asda I decided that for once I would pop along too. After spending an hour looking ... more
