Powerful Products – 5 Amazing Household Products That Serve Multiple Purposes

Who doesn’t love finding quicker, easier ways to solve common household problems? The great news is, there are already some products in your home hiding their ability to help you with problems they may not necessarily be made to solve. 

Let’s take a look at five amazing household products that serve multiple purposes:

• Nappy Rash Cream

Nappy rash creams like Sudocrem are great at keeping baby’s bottom soft and comfortable. What you may not know is that this powerful product is also amazing for a whole host of other skin problems. It can help with acne, wrinkles, dry skin, shaving rash, and chafing. Sudocrem even helps with insect bites! It’s packed full of healing ingredients, so it’s the perfect all-around cream for the needs of the whole family. 

• Lemon Juice

Lemon juice is delicious over pancakes and a slice pairs quite nicely with a gin and tonic. What you might not know is that lemon juice also has a huge amount of uses around the home. It is able to descale, remove stains, kill bacteria, brighten metal, remove mold and odors, brighten white items, and freshen the air. 

It really is your best friend when it comes to keeping your home looking and smelling great. If you want to go all out, you can even concoct a homemade citrus cleaner to keep your home clean in an environmentally friendly, chemical-free way. 

• Beer

Using beer for anything other than drinking seems sacrilege, but you may think differently once you know how versatile it can be. Did you know beer is able to clean and shine fine metal? It is also great for shining up your taps and plugs, removing rust, and for polishing wood. 

What you might be most surprised about is that beer is a fantastic lawn fertilizer. The sugar in the beer feeds the tiny microbes in the lawn, and the nutrients feed your lawn all of the good stuff it needs to grow strong and healthy. 

• Kitty Litter

We all know what kitty litter is designed to do, but you may not realise this cheap and effective toilet grain for your furry friend has multiple uses elsewhere. House plant lovers often use it as a cheaper alternative to soil mixture favorites like perlite and vermiculite. Just be sure to use the right brand in your country to ensure you don’t accidentally poison your plants. 

Kitty litter is also great for absorbing moisture in damp spots, drying out wet technology such as a phone accidentally dropped in the bath, and to absorb oil or grease from porous surfaces. 

• Vinegar

Vinegar is pretty great in chips, sauces, and dips, but this condiment knows no bounds when it comes to household versatility. It is actually kind of an epic cleaning agent, which is great because it is so low in cost and so environmentally friendly. 

Use it to clean out the dishwasher and washing machine by running a few cups through the hottest setting whilst the device is empty. You can also mix it with water to clean your windows, unwaxed floors, and microwave. 

As if all that wasn’t enough, vinegar is great as an environmentally friendly weed-killing agent. When sprayed onto weeds in sunlight, it prevents the pest plant from photosynthesizing. 

Start with the versatile products listed above, and you’ll soon be saving time and money when solving common household problems. Once you’ve mastered their use, you can branch out and discover even more multipurpose products to add to your collection.
