What do you use Vaseline for? (lemm.ee)

I have a tub of Vaseline and have hardly scratched the surface. I'm curious whether anyone uses it for anything other than their lips.

I use it in my nose after a nosebleed and put it on popsicle sticks to put in houseplants to be a sticky trap for flying pests

You should consider Aquaphor for inside your nose instead.

If you are getting nosebleeds often you might want to try getting the inside of your nose cauterized. It stopped my constant nosebleeds for years. I'm starting to have them occasionally in one nostril I had it done about 18 years ago so that is pretty good.
