    Oh dear I love the stuff.

    Skin LOVES it

    MUCH better than aloe for sunburn

    Lubricates and protects basically any metal, rubber or plastic

    Stays slick when giving a massage

    EDIT:

    For the gents in the house, apply liberally to prevent any “sticking” throughout the day. Baby powder also works and is probably better for humid climates

      I suggest Gold Bond Extra Strength for your junk fellow dick and ball havers out there, prevents chaffing, heals if it’s already there, and as was told to me when I was first educated about it by a buddy on my wrestling team, “feels like tiny little fairy’s are gently blowing on you balls”. 10/10 would recommend

    Applying liberally to the orifice.

    Not that orifice. Get your mind out of the gutter.

    I meant a camera lens. uwu

    To hide the wheels on the rig of your sci-fi hovering speeder, of course.

    In that movie where that guy kisses his sister. 👉👈

      This has been a game changer for my chronically dry lips. It stays on long and makes your lips look great! Plus they’re healthier. Couldn’t recommend it enough.

    It lets you use a snorkel mask with a mustache. (Clean the mask well though, it will destroy the plastic)

    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.

    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…)

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

    • Holding mechanical parts together during assembly, for example some parts in automatic transmissions. It dissolves in the transmission fluid and doesn’t impair it’s performance or clog anything like greases could.
    • Packing a replacement oil-pump with it to effectively pre-prime it so it pumps oil as soon as you start the engine it’s attached to.
