Have you ever thought that mouthwash doesn’t have to be used only for cleaning the oral cavity? Thanks to its great effects you can use it for other purposes as well. Now you might be thinking you won’t waste such an expensive product. But this is definitely not money wasted, quite the opposite! Thanks to its excellent results you won’t need to spend money on other remedies. So if you have a bottle of mouthwash lying in your bathroom, take a look at these tips!
Disinfection
It can be used both on minor cuts and abrasions and for disinfecting the home. All of that is because it contains alcohol. So if you don’t have anything at home to dab wounds with (for example, this problem is often solved with slivovitz), here is another alternative to prevent wound infection. Similarly, if you’ve run out of aftershave, your husband doesn’t need to be afraid to use mouthwash. Its effects are practically very similar. Don’t worry, it certainly won’t harm the skin.
Fights oily skin
Women who want to cleanse their skin and give it a fresh look can also use mouthwash on their skin. The battle with oily skin can sometimes be a long one, and mouthwash helps remove oil easily and quickly. Apply it to a cotton pad and gently wipe the skin, avoiding contact with the eyelids and the area around the eyes! Finally rinse your face with plain water, preferably cold. At last your forehead and cheeks won’t shine, and instead your skin will have a pleasant glow.
Foot care
Mouthwash can also be great for softening rough skin on your feet. You can soak your feet in the prepared solution for several minutes and enjoy a great soak. Finally wipe the soles with a coarse towel and you will see for yourself how soft they become. If you often suffer from fungal infections, you can fight them with cotton pads soaked in mouthwash. Rub your feet with them and leave to act. You will feel a slight burning. Then wash your feet and dry them thoroughly with a towel. You must be patient and fight the fungus systematically. For example, nail fungus may disappear after 3–4 weeks of such intensive treatment. If you don’t see improvement, the fungus may be somewhat resistant and it is appropriate to visit a dermatologist.
