Soothe Chapped Lips
Most people have a specific Chapstick they enjoy using, but it might not be effective for severely chapped lips. VapoRub is an excellent solution because the menthol soothes painful and split dry lips. Plus, you only need a small amount!
Use as an Antiseptic
Some people seem more prone to getting scrapes and scratches, and VapoRub is an excellent antiseptic to prevent infection. Just clean the cut thoroughly with peroxide, soapy water, or rubbing alcohol. Then, apply the ointment with a cotton ball and cover it with a bandage.
