Surprising Uses of Baby Powder

Surprising Uses of Baby Powder 

1. Grease Removal: Use a sponge to rub the powder on a stain until it’s gone.
2. Stinky Shoes: A hard days work sometimes results in a stinky pair of shoes at the end of the day. Get rid of the odor (and have less sweaty shoes tomorrow) by coating the inside of shoes with a thin coat of baby powder.
3. Stop creaks: Shake powder in between wooden floorboards to keep them quiet.
4. Fend off Ants: Sprinkle powder around their hideouts and they’ll be history.
5. Keep Sand Out of the House: Instead of rinsing those sandy feet with water rub it down with baby powder. The powder helps get the moisture out of the sand making it a much more easier way to get sand of your feet.
6. Prevent Chafing During Exercise: If your workout clothes are giving you a rash, apply baby powder to the affected area. The powder will help keep the moisture away and it won’t irritate the area any longer.
7. Cooling bedroom sheets: If you bed gets too hot during summer days just sprinkle baby powder on them. The powder will absorb your heat and will provide a cooling sensation.
8. No more greasy hair: If you hair gets greasy overnight just apply some powder to your roots for two minutes and brush! No more greasy hair and makes your hair smell good too!
9. Detangle jewellery- Don’t be tempted to throw away any tangled jewellery.
Give them a quick sprinkle of baby powder and rub between your fingers and thumb to gently loosen any stubborn knots.
This little trick also works well on any shoelace knots.
