Even if you don’t have children, baby powder<\/a> is a common household item that can be found in almost any home. Mothers have used this handy, gentle powder on little bums for as long as we can remember but did you know this inexpensive gem of a product can also be used for a wide range of other household tasks? Here are just 5 brilliant everyday uses for that tub of baby powder in your cabinet?<\/p>\n

As a substitute for\u00a0dry shampoo<\/h4>\n

While dry shampoo<\/a> is great, many people don’t care for the texture or the smell of many of the dry shampoos on the market. Many people also find that dry shampoos cause build-up on the scalp so if you’re looking for an alternative to the usual spray-style dry shampoo then baby powder will do the trick. Simply dust a little on your roots, let it sit, and then rub it into your scalp to absorb any excess oil at the roots and to create volume and texture in the hair.<\/p>\n

To remove beach sand<\/h4>\n

We all love the beach, but removing beach sand from your skin after a day spent frolicking in the sun is no easy task. Next time you head for the beach, put a tub of baby powder in your beach bag. When you leave the beach simply sprinkle baby powder on your feet or anywhere else on your body where you want to remove the sand and it will wipe right off!<\/p>\n

To silence squeaky floorboards<\/h4>\n

Wooden floors look lovely but one squeaky floorboard can wake up the whole family at night. To silence squeaky floorboards, sprinkle some baby powder between the boards and sweep into the cracks. Just sprinkle, sweep, and you are all set.<\/p>\n

As a substitute for setting powder<\/h4>\n

You can even use baby powder to set your makeup! If you’ve run out of setting spray or powder then baby powder will work just as well to absorb facial oils and help set your makeup for the day or night.<\/p>\n

Save your gym gloves<\/h4>\n

If you wear gloves during your gym workouts then baby powder will be your best friend. Before slipping on your gloves, sprinkle\u00a0your fingers or the inside of your gloves with a light covering of baby powder.\u00a0The powder will help to eliminate moisture, making it easier to remove sweaty gloves after your workout. They’ll also leave your gloves smelling great and absorb nasty odours after a sweat session.<\/p>\n
