Practical uses of table salt in daily life
Hair problems
Add 2-3 tablespoons of salt into your shampoo if you have oily or delicate hair. You’ll see that in one week your hair will look normal and the effects of the salt will show immediately. Furthermore, this is also a great solution for dandruff; try it.
Body peeling
Take one cup of olive oil and add 2 tablespoons of salt. Rub your legs and arms with it and your skin will be soft and smooth as silk! Moreover, if your skin is generally dry, you’ll solve this problem too using this mixture.
Iron cleaning
Your iron is full with mineral deposits and sticky residue? Here’s what you should do. Take 1 cup of salt and baking paper. On a wooden cutting board place the baking paper and pour the salt. Turn your iron to maximum and place it on the salt; start moving it up and down, side to side or in circle for a few minutes. After you do that, look at your iron: it’s perfectly shiny and clean!
Sticky, greasy pan cleaning
After you’ve cooked something in your pan, it becomes sticky and greasy. Add one cup of salt in it, pour some water and leave it for 20 minutes in order for the salt to dissolve. Afterwards, rub the surface of the pan with a sponge and you’ll see how all the sticky and greasy stuff will disappear!
Greasy sponge
In addition, after you finish cleaning your pan, you’ll need to get rid of the grease from the sponge. Just add the sponge into a bowl filled with water and once again, add one cup of salt in it. Microwave it for a minute and squeeze it. Your sponge will be as good as new!
Coffee stain removal
For example, you’ve drank your coffee and you’ve forgotten to wash it right after. Coffee stains are left all over your cup. Add a little bit of salt in your cup, rub it using your fingers and wash it off. Your cup will be clean again!
