12 Problems That Can Be Solved With Baby Powder:

1. A knotted necklace
Never waste time desperately tugging at tangled jewelry again. Loosen the knot with a little baby powder and use a pin to pull it apart.

2. Musty furniture
One can keep drawers fresh with a sprinkle of baby powder under the drawer liners.

3. Greasy hair
Most dry shampoos are starch-based, so baby powder has a similar effect in a pinch. Sprinkle some on your hands and massage it through your scalp to soak up excess oil.

4. A sweltering summer night
Crawling into a hot, sticky bed is no one's definition of nighttime relaxation. Dust powder between your sheets to help absorb sweat and keep things cool.

5. A stuck-together deck of cards
When poker night gets messy, toss the playing cards into a paper bag with a few tablespoons of powder and give them a good shake. Then wipe them with a paper towel.

6. A family of ants
Keep these intruders out of your kitchen by blocking their path with powder (they're not fans of the scent).

7. Oily stains
Don't stress over spilt salad dressing. Dab any oil-based stain with baby powder to absorb the grease before laundering like usual.

8. Dish glove friction
After washing dishes, sprinkle a little powder into the rubber gloves. It helps keep them fresh while they dry and your hands easily slide through the next time.

9. Squeaky hardwood floors
Pour baby powder onto your wooden floor and sweep it into the cracks to quiet creaking floorboards. Wipe away the excess, and enjoy the sounds of silence.

10. Sandy feet
11. Wimpy eyelashes
Beauty bloggers swear by this one. In between coats of mascara, use a cotton swab to dust baby powder on your lashes. Adds volume.

12. Sweaty feet
Sprinkle the stuff in your shoes to keep odours at bay. And forget socks — the powder keeps your feet dry so you can go barefoot in flats without worry.
Pack a travel size bottle of baby powder in your beach bag. At the end of the day, rub it on your skin and sand will come right off.
