10 Beauty Problems Solved With Baby Powder

You don't have to spend a ton of money to solve whatever beauty problems you may be having. Instead of taking a trip to the store, just open your medicine cabinet. Baby powder can be the perfect cure for a ton of beauty ailments.

Tangled Necklace

So you tried to bring your favorite necklaces on vacation and all you ended up with was a tangled mess. Before you waste hours desperately tugging on the chains, grab some baby powder. Sprinkle and massage baby powder into the knot to loosen it, then simply pull it apart with a pin. Magic!

Greasy Hair

Roots need a boost but you don’t have time to shower, dry, and style? Baby powder works like dry shampoo since they are both starch-based. Pour some on your hands and massage into your scalp. The powder soaks up the excess oil giving you volume and less shine up top.

Sticky Sheets

Crawling into a hot, sticky bed at the end of a long day is no one’s dream. Lightly dust your sheets with a little baby powder before you climb into bed. It will absorb the sweat and make sure your bed stays cool and dry.

Ant Invasion

Don’t let these pesky bugs spoil your picnic! Dust your picnic blanket with a little baby powder. The ants will steer clear because they don’t like the smell. This also works wonders around the house.

Oil Stains

Don’t stress over oil and grease stains. Baby powder to the rescue! Dab the stain with a little baby powder to absorb the grease and leave your favorite top looking as good as new.

Sticky Gloves

Wearing gloves in the summer is a huge pain. Next time you’re gardening or cleaning sprinkle a little baby powder in the gloves before you put them on. It will absorb your sweat so your hands can easily glide in and out. It also keeps the gloves fresh and dry for the next use.

Sandy Feet

Every beach vacationer’s woe: sandy feet. A fun day at the beach always leads to sand everywhere; the floor, the bed, your clothes, the car, everywhere. Pack a little bottle of baby powder in your beach bag and apply to your skin when you leave the beach. All that bothersome sand will come right off!

Fake Falsies

Stop wasting big bucks on false eyelashes. In between coats of mascara take a cotton swab dipped in baby powder and apply to your lashes. The powder sticks to the lashes, adding length and volume. Hello bombshell, goodbye clumps.

Smelly Feet

Summer heat leads to sweat which makes some pretty stinky feet. No need to be uncomfortable in socks. Just sprinkle some baby powder in your shoes to keep odors at bay and eliminate sweat!

Setting Powder

Before you go out and buy expensive setting powder to keep your face from melting off in the sweltering heat, reach for a bottle of baby powder. Using a large powder brush lightly dust it onto face after you have finished your makeup. The powder will set your makeup and absorb excess oil throughout the day.
