Face Powder works like magic dust. It sets the makeup and prevents it from looking oily. This sweet smelling powder can do much more than simply enhancing your facial beauty. In fact, there are many clever uses of face powder probably you never considered!
Wondering what they are? Keep reading!

1. Ease Waxing Pain:

Love to wax, but hate its pain? Do you belong to the same community? The cure is here! Just apply some face powder before waxing. The powder absorbs all the moisture and allows wax to work well so that the hair comes out with ease. Plus, it also protects the skin from redness and makes the process less painful.

Ready to enjoy a pain-free wax? I bet you do!

2. Lighten Grease Stains:

Sprinkling face powder is one of the easiest and quickest techniques to remove the greasy stains from your favourite clothes. If, by chance, you happen to get grease on your clothes, just sprinkle some powder on the stain and dab over it. Rub the portion well and then brush off the leftover powder. Repeat the procedure until all the remains of sticky grease have gone and launder it as usual.

3. As A Dry Shampoo:

Face powder is known as the best substitute for dry shampoo. All you need to do is just sprinkle some powder over your comb and then gently comb your hair from the roots till the shaft. It removes the oily layer from your hair and gives it a freshly washed look. Not only it helps to give a shiny look to your hair, but also lets your hair smell amazing – and this effect stays till you give your hair the next wash.

You can also add some cocoa powder onto your brush along with powder to get a sparkling look.

4. Remove Odor From Shoes:

If you tend to have stinky shoes, then this magic dust can do wonders to save you from that embarrassment. Just sprinkle the powder inside your shoes and allow it to settle overnight. Before stepping out, shake out the powder, or if you wish, you can let it remain inside the shoes itself. Powder will perform its job of absorbing moisture and kills the odor.

Now you’re good to go and let people around you heave a sigh of relief!

5. Ant Repellent:

Face powder is an excellent repellent for ants and other bugs roaming around your home. Just spritz the powder wherever you find them residing and watch them run away! This trick is great for those who have babies in their home. It helps keep the harmful chemicals away from babies, and is safe for your kitchen as well.

6. Make Deodorant:

Take it easy! We’re not asking you to prepare deodorant by sharing its DIY recipe! We are just helping you out with an alternative to deodorant. Remember the days when your granny used to tell something about powdered scent? Well, you’re close to it. Just sprinkle a handful of powder in your palms and apply it over your underarms. It absorbs the moisture keeping the area dry and sweat-free.

Did we miss anything? Yes – it smells really amazing!

7. Loosen Up Playing Cards:

Well, this is an age-old trick to add powder to your playing cards. Its smooth effect makes the cards easier to handle and prevents them from sticking with each other. Once you’re done with your game, place the cards in a Ziploc bag. Add some powder in the bag and distribute it evenly by shaking the bag well. When you take out the cards again, wipe off the excess powder, and get ready for another refreshing game!

8. Freshen Moldy Books:

Don’t be sad if your favourite collection of books has acquired mold due to being hoarded in a damp shelf. We’re up with a quick fix! Open your books and let them air-dry for some time. Once the pages are dry, sprinkle a little bit of powder between each page, make them stand, and leave them overnight. Next morning, shake off all the powder and experience the feel of your fresh book with a pleasant fragrance (and no more messy mold).

Do you use your face powder for any of the above reasons? Keep sharing your views with us!
