Ways to Reuse Vegetable and Olive Oil Part 2

I had to make a part 2...there are just so many things you can do with oil! Here we go...

• Using a Q-tip, dab a bit of oil on your cuticles to keep your nail bed moisturized. You'll be less likely to get hangnails!

• For the softest feet you've ever experienced, try this before-bed routine: Rub down your feet with vegetable oil, then put on some old socks. When you wake up, the oil will be gone and your feet will be supersoft.

• Shaving cream feels great, no doubt, but did you know it's actually not the most efficint way to get a good shave? Next time, try shaving with oilive oil instead—you'll get a closer, smoother shave.

• Add up to 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil to your cat's moist food to starve off hairballs and make his or her coat extra shiny.

• Got a splinter you can't get out? Try soaking the area in vegetable oil for several minutes. It should soften your skin enough to allow you to ease the splinter out. 

Believe it or not, cooking oil is great for shining up leather shoes. First clean off the shoes with a damp cloth, then wipe with a soft, dry cloth and a drop of vegetable oil. Your shoes will drink in the moisture and look good as new.

Did you know that in ancient Greece, women used olive oil to make eye shadow by mixing it with charcoal. Who Knew!
