Tips

To remove excess buildup on your hair, rinse with club soda. The carbonation also helps remove chlorine if you rinse immediately after geting out of the pool.

To keep candle wax from sticking in a candle holder, add a drop or two of water into the bottom of the holder before placing candle.

To keep a bathroom mirror from fogging, wipe a small bit of shaving cream or shampoo on it and then wipe clean.
