The Power of Baby Powder

You heard right: baby powder has power. This household
product has been around for quite some time and the main
way people use it is to keep their baby?s diapers fresh.
However, there are many more uses for baby powder, some
that may even surprise you. The great thing about using
this product to take care of your daily tasks is that its
multipurpose nature can save you a lot of money, which is
always a plus in any person?s book!

If you are a parent, chances are baby powder has become one
of the most common items in your life. But now you can take
your bottle and use it for much more than tasks that are
baby related. From home remedies to cleaning and even your
pets, you?ll enjoy your newfound use for baby powder. Never
thought this item could have anything to do with your
household pet, did you? If you can?t stand performing bath
time duties for the family dog you can sidestep this chore
while still getting results by using a dry shampoo process.
Simply pour a few handfuls of baby powder onto your dog?s
fur (to avoid a mess inside the house it is best to do a
dry shampoo on your pet outdoors). Wait about five minutes
for the baby powder to settle in the fur and then use a
grooming brush and gradually work the product out of your
dog?s coat. This dry shampoo technique kills two birds with
one stone by ridding their coat of dirt while giving their
coat a natural shine?not to mention your pet will also smell
good.

Do you have an issue with ants making an appearance in your
home? Take your baby powder bottle and sprinkle it in the
areas where the ants tend to gather. Eventually they will
avoid these areas since they will not want to wade through
the powder. This saves you from having to purchase stinky
and toxic bug spray, plus it is easy to vacuum or sweep up
afterwards.

For folks that hate the feel of sticky, sweaty bed sheets
during hot nights in the summer, add some baby powder to
your sheets before bedtime. The powder will absorb the
moisture and keep your sheets fresh and smelling fragrant.
This home remedy is ideal for those with skin conditions
that tend to flare up from excessive sweating, such as
eczema.

Tired of getting razor burn while using your electric
razor? Whether you use your razor to shave your legs,
underarms or bikini area, remember to add a touch of baby
powder onto the area. This will prevent razor burn.

Baby powder even has the power to benefit your garden.
Before planting your new flower bulbs, pour a few table-
spoons of baby powder into a sealed plastic bag, place your
flower bulbs in the bag and gently shake them until the
bulbs are covered with the powder. This practice prevents
the appearance of pests like grubs, moles and voles, as
well as rot.
