this use.
Eliminate puffiness under your eyes..... All you need is a dab of
Preparation H, Carefully rubbed into the skin, avoiding the eyes. The
Hemorrhoid ointment acts as a vasoconstrictor, relieving the swelling
instantly.
Honey remedy for skin blemishes... Cover the blemish with a dab of
honey and place a Band-Aid over it. Honey kills the bacteria, keeps
the skin sterile, and speeds healing. Works overnight.
Listerine therapy for toenail fungus... Get rid of unsightly toenail
fungus by soaking your toes in Listerine mouthwash. The powerful
antiseptic leaves your toenails looking healthy again.
Easy eyeglass protection.. To prevent the screws in eyeglasses from
loosening, apply a small drop of clear nail polish to the threads of
the screws before tightening them.
Coca-Cola Cure for rust... Forget those expensive rust removers. Just
saturate an abrasive sponge with Coca Cola and scrub the rust stain.
The phosphoric acid in the coke is what gets the job done.
Cleaning liquid that doubles as bug killer.... If menacing bees,
wasps, hornets, or yellow jackets get in your home and you can't find
the insecticide, try a spray of Formula 409. Insects drop to the
ground instantly.
Smart splinter remover ... just pour a drop of Elmer's Glue all over
the splinter, let dry, and peel the dried glue off the skin. The
splinter sticks to the dried glue.
Hunt's Tomato Paste boil cure ... cover the boil with Hunt's tomato
paste as a compress. The acids from the tomatoes soothes the pain and
brings the boil to a head.
Balm for broken blisters... To disinfect a broken blister, dab on a
few drops of Listerine... a powerful antiseptic.
White Vinegar To heal bruises... Soak a cotton ball in white vinegar
and apply it to the bruise for 1 hour. The vinegar reduces the
blueness and speeds up the healing process.
Kills fleas instantly. Dawn Dish Washing Liquid does the trick. Add a
few drops to your dog's bath and shampoo the animal thoroughly. Rinse
well to avoid skin irritations. Good-bye fleas.
Rainy day cure for dog odor.. Next time your dog comes in from the
rain, simply wipe down the animal with Bounce or any dryer sheet,
instantly making your dog smell springtime fresh.
Eliminate ear mites... All it takes is a few drops of salad Oil in
your cat's ear. Massage it in, then clean with a cotton ball. Repeat
daily for 3 days. The oil soothes the cat's skin, smothers the mites,
and accelerates healing.
Vaseline cure for hair balls...... To prevent troublesome hair balls,
apply a dollop of Vaseline petroleum jelly to your cat's nose. The cat
will lick off the jelly, lubricating any hair in its stomach so it can
pass easily through the digestive system.
Quaker Oats for fast pain relief.... Mix 2 cups of Quaker Oats and 1
cup of water in a bowl and warm in the microwave for 1 minute, cool
slightly, and apply the mixture to your hands for soothing relief from
arthritis pain.
