Simple ways to reuse expired products

Not all expired products need to be thrown away immediately. You can reuse expired products in the following extremely simple ways.

Overripe avocado

If you accidentally let your avocado overripe, don't rush to throw it away. You can use avocados with dark flesh to care for your hair. They can be great moisturizers. Just whisk it, then apply it to dry hair, leaving it on for at least 6 minutes. After that, you use shampoo and conditioner to clean your hair.

Remember, your hair may feel dry at first, but after you do this twice, your curls will be soft and shiny.

Face mask

Once expired, facial paper masks are no longer good to use on your face, however, you can use them on your neck, hands, and chest that are dry and chapped.

Moisturize and cleanse your face

 If you have expired moisturizer or facial cleanser, you can reuse them for cleaning and polishing handbags, leather wallets. Just apply them on the product and use makeup remover cotton or multi-purpose wipes to polish. .

Milk

Spoiled milk can still be used for many different purposes. You can make your own cheese, use it to bake cakes, and even make pancakes. Besides cooking, you can use it as a mask. Just apply milk all over your face, leave it for a few minutes and then rinse with clean water. The smell may not be pleasant but lactic acid will do wonders for your skin.

Hair removal cream

Hair removal cream can be reused once it expires. Best of all, you can use it to clean dust and grease because it literally sucks up dust. But the most surprising use is that it can clean dirt under the nails. Just apply a little cream and use a toothpick to wipe them off. You will have clean nails immediately afterward.

Toothpaste

Because toothpaste contains stain removers, it can remove stains from carpets and even wipe off crayons from walls. Additionally, you can whiten and clean tennis shoes and phone screens. It also helps remove sour odors from baby bottles.

Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt has many great benefits, even after its expiration date. Sounds strange, right? However, it can become a great exfoliating mask. All you need to do is mix yogurt with honey and cucumber, apply it on your face and leave it for 15 minutes. Finally, just rinse your face with warm water.
