With the cold dry winter weather my sensitive skin prone family can have some serious lip chapping issues. When it gets this cold and the wind pick ups normal lip balms just don’t cut it. Vaseline has long been a staple in my house to protect little lips from the cold winter winds. Vaseline has made it even easier this year with their new mini size  Vaseline® Lip Therapy Original®2.  A great formula just for your lips and it comes in a cute little tub that will fit just about anywhere.

Did you know that nearly 4 million Americans use Vaseline® Petroleum Jelly? It’s commonly used to help soothe lips and skin, but this handy product can also be an easy-to-use beauty tool to help get a beautiful and effortless holiday look.

Here are two fun and effective tips:

• Mix a dab of Vaseline® Petroleum Jelly with loose eye shadow to create a moisturizing blush.
• A pinch of your favorite powdered drink combined with Vaseline® Petroleum Jelly creates flavored lip gloss – it’s pretty and delicious!

Another great beauty tool is the NEW Q-tips® Precision Tips™3 . Designed with pointed cotton tips, they are soft, safe and gentle, and perfect for tasks requiring a little more precision, such as makeup application and touch-up.

Check out these great new products at your local drugstore or mass retailer.

Vaseline Fast Absorbing Face and Body Lotion for Men

Your skin is a miracle material. It is your body’s first line of defense and when it is healthy, it is able to withstand extreme conditions – heat, cold, wetness, dryness, abrasion – and even heal itself when damaged.

But did you know that:

* Men’s skin is thicker and oiler than women’s skin – that is why you need products that are specifically designed for men’s unique skin needs
* Your lifestyle may be dehydrating your skin without you even knowing it
o A day spent outdoors can drain at least ½ pint of water from your skin
o After a swim or a shower, it can take your skin up to 8 hours to rehydrate

That’s why it is critical to keep your skin hydrated with New Vaseline® MEN – a range of skin care products uniquely designed to help fortify men’s skin to make it resilient for healthy and strong skin, so it can endure whatever the world throws its way.

Keep Vaseline® MEN Body & Face lotion on standby at home or take the convenient sized Hand lotion tube with you on the go.

New Vaseline® MEN Body & Face and Hand lotion range for resilient, moisturized skin to keep you looking and feeling healthy:

Fast Absorbing Body & Face Lotion

* Instant relief for everyday dryness
* Non-greasy formula absorbs within seconds

Only Vaseline® Sheer Infusion™ with Stratys-3™ delivers superior moisture to all layers of skin

Some moisturizers only treat the top layers of your surface skin, leaving it feeling greasy. Others sink through so quickly and your skin is not thoroughly moisturized.

Introducing Vaseline Sheer Infusion TM with patented Stratys-3TM.

Vaseline® Sheer Infusion TM with Stratys-3™ is designed to work differently. Vaseline® Sheer Infusion TM infuses and suspends moisture across all layers of skin*, for twice the moisture and an unmatched silky skin feel, compared to leading everyday body lotions.

What is Stratys-3™?

Stratys-3™ is the most effective patented moisturizing complex on the market**. It combines three powerful ingredients that infuse and suspend moisture across all layers of skin*– at the top, the core, and deep down.

Vaseline introduces Aloe Fresh, a new line of lotions that feel light and fresh on your skin. The line includes an unique moisturizing body gel, lotion with SPF and everyday aloe body lotion that will leave skin hydrated and feeling refreshed, especially during the hot summer months.

In honor of its new light summer variants, Vaseline will sponsor Maneater – a Lifetime miniseries to kick off the summer season starring Sarah Chalke (TV’s Scrubs). In the film scheduled to air May 30 and 31, Chalke’s character (Clarissa) maintains a list of rules to live by – a set of tenets she uses as a guide for her life.

To thread this theme throughout the summer, Lifetime and Vaseline Aloe Fresh has created a promotion titled “The Rules for Skin Season” highlighting the many fun ways to celebrate the lighthearted nature of the summer.

Vaseline invites you to submit your “Rules for Skin Season” for the chance to win a “Fabulous Beach House Getaway in The Florida Keys” – plus fun weekly prizes from May 1 through July 15, 2009.

Log on to www.rulesforskinseason.com to enter your rule and to view lighthearted vignettes where Chalke shares her own rules.

Enjoy a sneak peek to some of Chalkes’s summer rules:

• Grind up some strawberries for a fresh summer scrub – the seeds will wash away dead skin.
• Take on summer with a fresh face – less makeup is best!
• Make body lotion your best friend during the dry summer months – Great skin is the number one summer accessory!
