Good to know
Skip if you’re already using exfoliating acids/retinoids, or if your skin is reactive.
Stop if you experience burning or persistent redness.
8) Clear Soap Scum in the Bathroom
Mild acidity helps loosen mineral film on tiles and glass.
How to try it
Crush 4–5 aspirin and mix with a small amount of liquid dish detergent and water to make a thin gel.
Apply to soap scum, wait 15–30 minutes, then wipe and rinse well.
Good to know
Wear gloves and keep the area ventilated. Don’t mix with bleach or other cleaners.
9) Add Shine Back to Dull Hair (Rinse Only)
A diluted aspirin rinse may help lift residue that dulls hair. Keep it off the scalp if you’re sensitive.
How to try it
Dissolve 5–8 crushed aspirin in 1 cup (240 ml) warm water.
After shampooing, pour through hair; wait 3–5 minutes; rinse thoroughly; condition ends.
Try once every 1–2 weeks.
Good to know
Avoid if your scalp is irritated or if you color-treat frequently—test a strand first.
