THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH A TOOTHPASTE THAT COULD EVER IMAGINE

I came across this story on the internet and decided to share with u guys, read: You'll be amazed to know how many benefits an ordinary toothpaste can provide. You can start considering your toothpaste a "Magic tube" because the miracles it can do for you are simply unbelievable. The origin of toothpaste can be traced back to ancient Egyptian civilization when a mixture of myrrh, burned eggshells, pumice, ox-hoof ash and water was used for the first time to keep the teeth clean. The formulae got fame under the name of toothpaste in 1850s.
The first collapsible toothpaste tube was introduced by Dr. Washington Sheffield in London in 1892. His son brought...
the idea from artists in Paris who used oil paints in metallic tubes. Later in 1896 Clogate and Company made the imitation of Sheffield's collapsible tubes under the
name of Colagte Ribbon Dental Cream.
The primary function of toothpaste is to maintain oral health; it
keeps the cavities away and protects you from gum diseases. It is
recommended to brush your teeth twice a day for at least 3 minutes.
Ok! Enough with the use of toothpaste for teeth! It's about time you
take it out of your washroom and use it around your home. Don't know
how?
Here is how you can make use of this "Magic tube":
1.Tooth paste as a hand sanitizer
Want to make your hands germ free? Take a drop of toothpaste and mix
it with a little water, apply this mixture to your hands. The mixture
would not only work as a disinfectant but would also help you get rid
of the dreadful smell of the onions and garlic if you have diced one.
Piano Cleaner
Constant tickling on the ivory piano keys can turn them dirty. You can
clean them up, the same way you clean your teeth. All you need is a
brush and toothpaste, brush the keys of the piano well and then rub
them with a damp cloth. If toothpaste can work on human teeth, it can
also work well on elephant's teeth (ivory). Toothpaste is equally good
as a cleaner for modern pianos with plastic keys.
2.Fix Nail Holes
We know nail holes make your walls look bad and you might need some
professional help to fix them. Wait! Try toothpaste. You can easily
fill the nail holes with toothpaste, let it dry and touch it up with
paint. Problem solved!
3.Excellent Stain Remover for Clothes
Ink, lipstick, ketchup! Dropped them on clothes? Don't worry!
Toothpaste will make these stains vanish in a minute. Just apply some
tooth paste on these tough stains, scrub them, rinse well and poof!
They are gone.
You can even clean up your carpet stains with the help of toothpaste
in the same way.
4.Quick Remedy for Pimples
Need a quick remedy to treat those pimples? Simple! Apply toothpaste
on the pimple at night and wash it in the morning. By morning, it will
be gone. Toothpaste effectively absorbs the oil from the pimples,
making them dry and flattens them. Keep in mind that this remedy
shouldn't be used more than once a week as it can make your skin over
dry. Also do a patch test before applying as some people might get
skin irritation by using it.
5.Makes your CDs Scratch less
Oops! There's a scratch on your important CD. No problem! Put some
toothpaste on it and wipe it off with a piece of clean cloth.
6.Tooth paste as Jewelry and Cutlery Cleane[/b]r
Now you don't need to take your gold and diamond jewelry to the
jewelry store to get them polished when you have toothpaste at your
home. Take some toothpaste and brush your piece of jewelry with an old
tooth brush, rinse with water. It will make them sparkling clean. You
can clean up your silver cutlery in the similar way.
7. [b]Can serve as your shoe polish
Toothpaste can serve as your shoe polish. It can help remove scuffs
from your leather shoes. Apply some of it on the area that has been
scuffed and rub it with a soft piece of cloth, then wipe off with a
clean damp cloth. Your shoes will turn good as new. It can also clean
the rubber area of your fleets or sneakers.
8.Works as crayon remover from walls
Your little one has been showing his art skills by drawing on the
walls? Now you don't need to cover that with paint. Just apply a
little toothpaste on the area where crayons have been used and rub it
with a damp rag.
9.Deodorize Baby Bottles
Baby bottles develop sour milk smell after being used constantly. To
deodorize your baby's bottle use a little toothpaste and scrub it
really well with the bottle brush. Make sure you rinse it thoroughly
afterwards.
10.Effective for Burns and Insect Bites
People working in kitchen usually get their fingers or hands burnt.
Unfortunately, if it happens next time, put some toothpaste on the
affected area. The key component, Eucalyptus found in toothpastes will
soothe the burns. (Personal experience)
Insect bites are causing you itchiness? Apply some toothpaste over it.
Toothpaste works well for flea, ants and mosquito bites.
11.Nail Cleaner
Next time you can do your manicure at home. At least you won't need a
professional help to fix your nails. The teeth and nails are made up
of similar material. So just the way you clean your teeth you can
clean your nails as well. Just switch your tooth brush with a nail
brush and clean up those nails thoroughly.
12.Works as a Defogger
Professional swimmers use toothpaste to defog their swimming goggles.
Just apply some toothpaste and rub with a clean damp cloth, they will
turn clear.
13.Sticks Posters
Can't find glue to paste those posters on the wall? No worries. Stick
them up with toothpaste; it won't even damage your walls.
14.Removes water marks
Need to get rid of those water mark rings that have spoiled your
furniture? Use toothpaste. Rub the mark with soft cloth and it'll be
gone in a few seconds.
