Unnecessary cosmetics will help in everyday life: 9 ways to use

An inappropriate shampoo or shower gel, a lotion or tonic with an unpleasant aroma, a hygienic lipstick that you never managed to use - where can you use this arsenal that is taking up space on the shelves? Throw it away, the hand does not rise, and there is no desire to use it for its intended purpose. How can you benefit from funds that are in the trash?

Lotion, toner, micellar water

There are many reasons why this or that product was not used for its intended purpose: I don’t like the smell, it doesn’t suit the skin, it’s expired. What is it useful for:

  1. A good antiseptic: alcohol tonics perfectly disinfect hands, cell phones, phones, or computer keyboards. Helps get rid of stains on clothes. A cotton pad soaked in this product will remove labels and stickers without effort.
  2. Will add shine to mirrors, glass surfaces or polishing. I didn’t have a windshield cleaner at hand; a lotion or tonic would help out. Just apply a small amount on a rag and everything will shine.
  3. Micellar water works well for removing stubborn stains from light leather items.

Shampoo, shower gel, hair conditioner

  1. Any shampoo or shower gel will help clean up your home. A couple of caps added when washing floors, tiles, and furniture will not only add shine and cleanliness, but will also delight you with a pleasant aroma. They will help to carefully clean the bathtub and toilet, and if you pour a little into the cistern, then in addition to cleanliness, the toilet room will smell fragrant for a couple of weeks without effort.
  2. Washing delicate items will not take much time and will retain their original appearance if you use shampoo or shower gel instead of powder. And conditioner or hair balm is perfect as a fabric softener.
  3. Give joy to children. Shampoo and shower gel make great air bubbles that are fun to blow together. You can use conditioner or balm to make a paste for modeling; recipes are available on the Internet.

Lipstick or lip balm

  1. Lip balm softens the heel of leather shoes, helps them wear them in, and avoids calluses. Replaces shoe polish: moisturizes and adds shine to your favorite boots or boots, hides small cracks.
  2. If your fingers are swollen, the ring is stuck, just apply balm or oily lipstick to the skin near the ring; you can easily remove it. A gold ring, cleaned with mother-of-pearl lipstick, will shine like new.
  3. Hygienic lipstick will help you deal with unruly laces that keep getting untied; just apply the laces where they are tied, and they won’t bother you anymore. It can also be used to lubricate tight locks on handbags, boots, and jackets. As well as door and furniture hinges.

Funds that are unnecessary at first glance will bring great benefits if you think a little and show your imagination. It’s easy to recycle, but finding interesting and useful uses requires ingenuity. But there are so many positive emotions in the end, and the savings are real.
