10 Amazing Uses of Q-Tips

Q-tips can have a lot of other uses, very handy, practical, and that you might not have even imagined. Have you ever thought of them as tools used to paint? From cosmetic uses to quick-cleaning products, Q-tips are a great help!

Here are some of the most practical uses of Q-tips!

1. Unlock a zipper. It often happens that our zipper gets stuck just when we are in a hurry and, just as often, in trying to solve the problem, we do worse. In such cases, the earplug works wonders: soak it in shampoo and grease the edge of the zipper.

You will be surprised to see how it will immediately start working. When your patience is tested, you should not miss the ear stick!

2. Flowing lipstick is really a problem. When makeup breaks down, it's clear that something isn't working. The ear stick helps you get rid of the flowing lipstick. Soak an ear stick in powder, possibly translucent powder, and apply on the edge of the lips after lipstick.

3. If you find small cracks in the furniture, soak an ear stick in olive oil and apply to the problematic cracks. You will help to stop the spread of cracks, and the wood will not erode even worse over time.

4. When epilating on very small areas of the skin, such as the eyebrows or the area above the upper lip, for a perfect contour, apply wax or depilatory cream with an ear stick. This way, you will cover exactly what you are interested in and you will avoid the irritation of the adjacent skin.

5. You may not have thought about it, especially today, when there are many special makeup brushes, but the ear stick is perfect for applying eyeshadow. It gives you precision, the powder does not fall under the eyes and the cotton wool at the end of the stick fixes, by dabbing, and covers perfectly.

6. The fragrance is pleasant as long as it is properly sprayed. Otherwise, the desired effect will change, and the others will not only not find it inviting, but will stay at a distance.

Use the ear stick, soaked in perfume, to apply the perfume to the wrist areas. You can soak 2-3 sticks, which you can carry with you, so that you can apply the perfume whenever you feel the need. No, the perfume bottle should not be carried in the bag!

7. You certainly haven't thought about it, but when the hair roots start to show and you don't have time to dye or get to the salon quickly, the ear stick is great.

Soaked in paint or even in the right shade of eyeshadow, it covers exactly the root, with just a few simple, quick movements. Aesthetic, light, practical!

8. To light a short wick candle, the ear stick soaked in alcohol and lit can help immediately. Fear not, the flame is small, but very helpful.

It often happens that when we resort to aromatherapy, we struggle when we light the candle in the holder. From now on you have the solution!

9. To accurately and easily remove excess makeup around the eyes, the ear stick soaked in olive oil or coconut oil wipes perfectly, without stretching and removing more than you want.

The cotton wool at the end of the stick achieves a clean finish and does not irritate as when cleaning with cream and napkins.

10. Soak an ear stick in moisturizer and place it in the freezer. Remove it from there when you experience dark circles or puffy eyes and apply the cold lotion around the eyes.

Painting the detail areas, cleaning the phone, the laptop, taking care of the dusty CDs, applying various solutions for sore throat and nail care are also some other uses of Q-tips.
