EDITOR’S PICK: 

Toothpaste isn’t just for making your teeth white and promoting good dental health. It has so many other household uses, that would make your life a lot easier.

So in this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at some amazing uses of toothpaste which am certain you don’t know.

1. Remove Scuff Marks from Shoes

If you have beautiful leather shoes, then you may notice from time to time how they get scuff marks on them. These scuff marks can make your nice shoes look rough.

Well, the next time this happens, put a small amount of toothpaste on a toothbrush and gently rub the marks until they are gone.

2. Clean Your Clothing Iron

Everyone knows how the bottom iron gets when it has been used for a long time. You will notice this sticky substance, that can easily stain clean clothes.

Well, just use some toothpaste and a toothbrush to clean it right off. Toothpaste has just the right amount of abrasion to do the trick.

3. Scrub Sinks

If you are looking for a cheap sink cleaner? then look no further than your toothpaste. It can do a magnificent job.

You just need to squirt a little toothpaste in your sink and scrub gently with a soft toothbrush. This should remove all dirt and stains from the sink.

4. Kills Bad Odors

When cooking, sometimes you get really strong odours on my hands. For instance, if you cook with a strong onion or garlic it can be difficult to remove the scent.

Well, not anymore. The next time you cook and get a strong odour on your hands, just wash your hands in toothpaste to remove it.
