So I don't think Q-Tips and Vaseline petroleum jelly need any further introduction. We all know what they are, they are staples in our everyday lives as hygiene tools, and we all know what they do and how well they do it. That is why I won't bother to do a review on these products. However, I will talk about the new Q-Tips Precision Tips and how it makes makeup application easier. I will also talk about Vaseline petroleum jelly's beauty uses.

Q-Tips Precision Tips




Tapered tips at both ends

Q-tips Precision Tips is the new variant of Q-Tips that has tapered tips at both ends for a precise application of any beauty-related product, or just to clean or smudge product the way we want to.

Here's a tutorial on how I use Q-Tips Precision Tips in my makeup application:


I would sometimes apply a dark brown line on my lower lashline that I can smudge, so that the line doesn't look too harsh. In this instance, I used MAC's Dirty Greasepaint Stick applied with Essence of Beauty liner brush.


Like so.


Using the pointed tip of the Precision Tips, I smudge the line to create a softer, smokier effect.


Using the Sonia Kashuk blending brush, I apply a dark brown shadow on the crease and outer lid.


Like so


I apply a light wash of color on the inner lid.


I apply a matte brown on the crease, and add some more of the dark brown shadow. I blend with the 224 brush.


I clean stray product on my lower lashline using the Precision Tip.


I apply black liquid liner on the upper lashline. I apply a matte highlight, and apply a bronze color on the lower lashline using a pencil brush.


I clean the lower lashline of any excess product using the Precision Tip.


I apply false lashes and mascara. Done!

Other uses I can think of for these new Precision Tips are:

- soak Precision Tips in nail polish remover to clean cuticles and sides of the nails of any excess nail polish after applying your manicure;
- use Precision Tips to clean product on your eyebrows after filling them in;
- soak Precision Tips in makeup remover to remove black circles under your eyes after taking off mascara.

As for the Vaseline Petroleum Jelly, I am glad they have it in tiny jars called Lip Therapy. My husband already stole one of my Lip Therapy pots so he could have one in his car anytime. My little boy also loves this for his lips, and he needs it everyday especially in the winter. I also use it for anything and everything skin-related- I use it to massage on my cuticles, I apply it to dry and cracked heels, dry hands and elbows, and it has virtually hundreds of uses. You can also apply Vaseline around your cuticles while you're painting your nails so that excess nail polish doesn't get into your skin or cuticles.

There you have it, my tips on how to use Q-Tips Precision Tips and Vaseline. I truly use these products everyday, and I am glad to have shared with you how I use them.
