11 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do With Toothpaste By Vasaratti by Nobody: 10:54am On Mar 11, 2017 |
Toothpaste is something we thought is only used for brushing the teeth right? What if I told you there was an all-purpose miracle product that is super cheap and found in every bathroom across the country? You guessed it. The same properties that make toothpaste great at cleaning, brightening, polishing, freshening and protecting our teeth work on all kinds of things. So before you run out and buy that extra-special (and extra-expensive) product, see if it’s something that can be replaced by toothpaste first. That's wrong here are some amazing things you didn't know you could do with toothpaste. 11. Cleaning your carpet Just add a little toothpaste to the dirty area and scrub it with a brush. 10. Cleaning the headlights of your car Most soap doesn't clean the headlights of a car properly but toothpaste will wipe it clean and make it shiny again just add a toothpaste to a bowl of water and wash with it with a rag 9. Toothpaste can serve as your shoe polish. It can help remove scuffs from your leather shoes. Apply some of it on the area that has been scuffed and rub it with a soft piece of cloth, then wipe off with a clean damp cloth. Your shoes will turn good as new. It can also clean the rubber area of your fleets or sneakers. 8. Effective for Burns and Insect Bites People working in kitchen usually get their fingers or hands burnt. If such thing should happen, put some Toothpaste on the affected area. The key component, Eucalyptus found in toothpastes will soothe the burns. (Personal experience) Insect bites are causing you itchiness? Apply some toothpaste over it. Also toothpaste works well for flea, ants and mosquito bite 7.Removes scratch from disks Ever want watched your favorite movie but noticed its freezing just take out the disc, put some toothpaste on it, scrub and clean it off. 6.Hand Sanitizers Toothpaste can also be used as hand Sanitizers like stench of onions, fish, garlic and other odoriferous foods from your skin by scrubbing briefly with toothpaste. Apply lotion after to moisten hands. 5. Used to treat pimples Seriously toothpaste can be used to treat pimples on your face. Apply toothpaste on the pimple at night and wash it in the morning. By morning, it will be gone. Toothpaste effectively absorbs the oil from the pimples, making them dry and flattens them. Keep in mind that this remedy shouldn’t be used more than once a week as it can make your skin over dry. Also do a patch test before applying as some people might get skin irritation by using it. It also works for eczema too 4. Mobile phones screen Unprotected mobile phone screens become hopelessly scratched and dirty over time, toothpaste can be used to wipe clean the screen of your phone and also scratches... Yes scratches!!! Scratches on your phones will be gone but this is only applicable to phones with plastic screen. Lightly rub the screen with a touch of toothpaste and your finger. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry, but be sure to not get your phone too wet. 3. Can serve as shoe polish Toothpaste can serve as your shoe polish. It can help remove dirts from your leather shoes. Apply some of it on the area that has been scuffed and rub it with a soft piece of cloth, then wipe off with a clean damp cloth. Your shoes will turn good as new. It can also clean the rubber area of your fleets or sneakers. 2. Using toothpaste as jewelry and cutlery cleaner Now you don’t need to take your gold and diamond jewelry to the jewelry store to get them polished when you have toothpaste at your home. Just, the teeth, take some toothpaste and brush your piece of jewelry with an old tooth brush, rinse with water. It will make them sparkling clean. You can clean up your silver cutlery in the similar way. 1. Teeth. Okay, so i lied in the headline about not mentioning your teeth . But there's a reason they call it "tooth" paste. cc: mynd44, Sean, Lalasticlala 10 Likes 1 Share |
