Five New Uses for Baby Powder


When you think of baby powder you think of a little baby after bath time. Recently people have been using this powder for many other functions. Personally i like to use baby powder after a day at the beach, it easily removes all the extra sand off your skin. This is my favorite function but Chris Barnes is convinced that this simple product can be used in many other situations, mostly smelly situations. For all the people out there with a stinky shoe problem, baby powder might just be what you need. after sprinkling some into your shoe at night and leaving it until the next morning, your shoes should smell good as new. for those who have an ant problem in their kitchen, leave piles of baby powder in areas where you often see them. The smell and texture of the powder is too much for the ants sensory system, causing them to avoid those areas. During the winter when the heat is blasting or in the summer when the humidity is unbearable, sleeping comfortably is always an issue, you always get so sweaty. By sprinkling some baby powder on your sheets and spreading it out it will absorb the sweat and you will have a dry, comfortable night. A smelly cat or dog is bad but even worst is trying to bathe a smelly cat or dog. Instead of washing your animals wipe them down with a baby powder covered cloth. The powder will absorb the smell and is very safe for the animals skin. getting on rubber gloves can some times be a problem, if you sprinkle some powder in them they will be much easier to put on and they wont stick together. I love learning new functions for simple products you can find around your house its always very interesting and usually very useful in your every day activities.
