How to Use Smith’s Rosebud Salve
As I closed my tin of Smith’s Rosebud Salve this morning after dabbing some on my lips, I thought about how wonderfully nifty this product truly is. What is Rosebud Salve, you ask? It’s a cult favorite petrolatum-based salve infused with pampering essential oils that smells sweet, like rosebuds! A little goes a long way. I believe it is one of those multifunctional must-haves that no girl should be without.
Here are some tried-and-true ways to use Rosebud Salve:
- Eyelash conditioner. A moment of curiosity one day while putting on makeup led me to try something new with Salve. I used my finger to coat my eyelashes with it before I applied mascara. It worked like a charm! My mascara went on more smooth and rich, and my lashes looked long and pretty. Occasionally I will apply it before bed to condition my lashes while I sleep.
- Highlighter. On days when I’m going to the gym, I apply Rosebud Salve to my eyelids, lips, and cheeks for a lovely, low-maintenance sheen.
- Hand cream. I have used Rosebud Salve to moisturize my hands and cuticles, especially after a French manicure to enhance the look and sheen. It’s looks and feels so nice!
- Body cream. Dry knees and elbows? Coat them with some of this stuff – problem solved!
- Curling iron burns. Had a nasty fall-out with your curling iron this morning? Nurse that burn with some Salve to ease the sting and speed the healing process.
- Tame flyaways. Rub a bit of Salve to the tips of your fingers and use it to control hair flyaways. You can also use Salve + a baby toothbrush to tame unruly eyebrows.
