Dishwashing liquid breaks down hard to remove stains

I have found a cheap and effective solution for tough laundry stain removal! Stains such as fats or body odours can be notoriously hard to remove. Normal washing powders may be made for getting out dirt and stains but not for breaking down fats and body fluids. To combat the problem, I simply add a squirt of dishwashing liquid to the wash, along with my normal powder and soaker and it works like a charm. After all, it breaks down grease and fatty food residue when doing dishes, it makes sense for it to work on clothes too!

Put your nail biting habit to sleep for good

For most unconscious habits such as nail biting, hypnosis is often the best, cheapest and environmentally friendly cure for nail biting. No drugs, no chemicals and usable by any member of the family providing they are receptive to hypnosis. Some people cannot be hypnotised but they are very few and far between. A single personal session might be all that is needed, but there are some very good programs available in various formats for home use. Worth a go!

Aussie Soap Supplies

For an outlay of $65 I purchased chemical-free ingredients to make shampoo, baby bubble bath, moisturiser, hand wash and washing liquid. I made 500ml shampoo, a litre of washing liquid, a litre of hand wash, a litre of beautiful light moisturiser and 500ml baby shampoo and bubble bath. All I added were essential oils and water to the ingredients and I still have enough ingredients to make several more litres of any product.

My next outlay for a further $50 was for packaging; containers and tubes to make shampoos, moisturisers and lip balms for Christmas gifts. I have saved myself a small fortune. There are several good websites offering these products, however, I found 'Aussie Soap Supplies' the best, which offers recipes as well. http://www.aussiesoapsupplies.com.au/

Storage not hard with spectacles case

Hard glasses cases are a great, cheap storage solution. I was looking for something to carry my make-up in for the holidays and my old hard case was perfect. It fitted everything I needed and the hard cover prevented any breakages. You also avoid the hassle of tipping out a soft make-up bag to find what you need! I then put the loose things in my glove box (screwdriver, scissors and pen) in another hard case and made myself a travelling tool kit. You could use them to store miniature sewing kits when travelling and much more. These cases are cheap to buy in second hand shops, and many are nicely decorated or you could do this yourself.
