Alternative Uses for Toothpaste

So, you’re cleaning out your bathroom drawers and find three old tubes half-filled with toothpaste. What do you do? Throw them out? No way. Turns out, there are a lot more uses for toothpaste than you could ever think of! So, if you need something to do with all of your excess toothpaste, or have one of these problems listed below… Toothpaste might be the answer!
 Here are a few things you can use toothpaste for:
  • Relieving bug bites, blisters, and sores. A drop of toothpaste can stop itching and decrease swelling!
  • Strengthening your fingernails. If you apply toothpaste underneath and on top of your nails, it acts as a cleaner, shiner, and strengthener.
  • Removing stains! You can scrub toothpaste directly on top of clothes, carpets, or shoes until the stain vanishes.
  • Shining jewelry. Gently rub toothpaste on to the jewelry and leave it overnight. Wipe it clean in the morning with a soft cloth and see results.
  • Removing crayons from walls! Grab a scrub brush and rub away the mess.
  • Defogging goggles. Who knew!? Rinsing toothpaste off the lenses eliminates the fog.
  • Removing DVD smudges. If the scratches aren’t too deep, rubbing a thin coating over the area and washing it clean can remove the imperfection!
So, what are you waiting for? Put your extra toothpaste to good use! To see more creative uses for toothpaste, read the rest of the article here. Let us know of any other uses you have for toothpaste on our Facebook page. Good luck!
