Unbelievable Uses For Used Teabags by Nobody: 11:33am On Nov 04, 2015
If you like your every cup of tea to be full of flavor and aroma, chances are you brew your teabag only once. This is perfectly understandable but don’t ditch that used teabag right away!


An already brewed teabag can be used in so many wonderful ways, from soothing puffy eyes to zapping bad odor. If you love tea — black, green, white, oolong or herbal — you will also surely love the various uses for used teabags.

Read on.....

Neutralise Bad Odors

The simple stashing of used tea bags in the fridge is enough to eliminate any unwanted lingering smell in there. You may place used and dry teabags at the bottom of trash bins and ashtrays to keep any room free of bad odors.


Deodorize Smelly Hands

Washing with soap and water is usually not enough to remove the smell of fish, garlic or onion in your hands. A quick way to deodorize your smelly hands is by thoroughly scrubbing them with the contents of a used teabag. Other than zapping bad odors, it will also provide exfoliating action that softens the hands.


Soothing and Anti-Aging Bath

In a tub filled with warm water, dunk some used teabags. Submerge your body in the water and enjoy the luxurious bath.
Antioxidants in tea will help protect the skin cells from free radicals, keeping it glowing with youth and beauty. Using chamomile teabags is a great idea if you want to de-stress.


Eliminate Mouth Bacteria

Alcohol-based mouthwashes sting and they leave your mouth dry. Steeping a used teabag in a cup of hot water and allowing it to cool to room temperature makes for an effective all-natural mouthwash that helps eliminate plaque and bad breath. Opting for green or peppermint tea is a wonderful idea.


Soften and Deodorize Feet

Fill a small basin with hot water and allow some used teabags to steep in it. When the water is already lukewarm, soak your feet in it. Use the contents of the teabags to scrub your feet with once the water is cold. To get rid of smelly feet, opt for green tea because it has really powerful
antibacterial properties.


Clean Glass And Mirrors

Ditch those cleaners with harsh chemicals and simply wipe damp used teabags on glass and mirrors. Compounds in tea help break down oil and grease, leaving the surface of glass and mirrors clean and shiny especially after buffing them with a soft and dry cloth.. Don't forget to remove the staple wires on the bag beforehand to prevent scratches.
