Alternative Uses for Lip Balm

Today on Will It Work Wednesday we talked about using lip balm for non lip issues and believe it or not there are lots of great alternative uses.

I was in the produce department one day and couldn’t get the produce bag open. The guy that worked there told me to use a little lip balm on my fingers and that would help. He said that’s what they did. Pretty great advice. I also heard that cashiers did the same thing. Rob Graham said that he uses it above his brows to keep sweat out of his eyes.

Our listeners said that they use it for dry patches and dry cuticles. Here’s a great article from the internet that has some other great alternatives uses for lip balm (shoes, CD’s and zippers).

What’s your tip?
