Now I don’t know if you are anything like me, but when Noxzema is not on sale, I buy men’s shaving cream to shave my legs. I mean, it just HAS to be gentle on my legs since it is made for a man’s face and is gentle to not cut them (we know what big babies they are when they’re hurt!). I was scouring the Web today and looking for multiple uses for the items I buy anyway. One of those items is shaving cream and here are a few alternative uses for it.
1. Kids Crafts
Spray the shaving cream on the table and let the kids at it. Food coloring could be used to add color but if you are like me and have a white table, I’m not so sure I would want a big blue stain smack dab in the middle of it. It’s an easy clean-up but just remember that whatever scent you buy is what scent will fill your kitchen.
2. Cleaning
Use shaving cream to clean your mirrors (I know what you’re saying right now and no, it does not leave streaks!), chrome fixtures and shower doors. Um, perhaps I should let Madison keep “wasting” my shaving cream next time I see her playing Karate Kid and doing her “wax on, wax off” with it on the shower door. But shhhh, let’s keep this a secret because if she knows it’s helping she won’t do it anymore =) … Oh! One more thing: I would recommend only cleaning your bathroom though otherwise your whole house will smell like your husband’s face after he shaves.
3. Squeaky door?
Lube it up with shaving cream. Not sure how often you would need to add any (I haven’t done this yet) so you would have to let me know!
These are some good uses for something we (some of us anyway) buy on a regular basis. A can of shaving cream is very affordable ($1.19 at Wal-Mart) and is better for the environment than all of those other chemical cleaners out there. Plus there is not a need for gloves and it leaves your hands smooth!
