That’s right, we use aspirin all the time! Ladies and gentlemen, did you know that aspirin has different non-medical uses? The answer is YES and this is mostly due to its powerful ingredient – salicylic acid.
Here are 7 non-medical uses of
aspirin:
- Rejuvenate your
skin
How this works – aspirin contains salicylic acid,
which works well like a clear-all for skin. Aspirin will help you reduce the
swelling, redness and acne by removing oil and dead skin cells that are
clogging them. It’s very simple – crush 5 aspirin tablets. Mix the powder with
a ¼ cup of water and one teaspoon of honey. Apply it and leave it on your skin
for at least 10 minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. You can do this daily,
weekly or monthly.
- Your flowers will
last longer
Fresh cut flowers have a tendency to wilt away and
they can start to look sad very quickly – we all know that, right? Why – this
is probably because they’re producing ethylene gas as they slowly decay.
According to the experts, if you add a crushed aspirin to the water they’re in,
your flowers will last much longer.
- Restore hair color
Swimming in a chlorinated pool can have a noticeable
effect on your hair coloring if you have light-colored hair. Here’s what you
need to do – dissolve six to eight aspirins in a glass of warm water. Rub the
solution thoroughly into your hair and leave it for 10-15 minutes.
- Get rid of pimples
It’s very simple – just crush 3 aspirins and mix them
with ½ teaspoon of water. Apply this paste on the pimples. Leave it for 4-5
minutes. Wash it off with soap and water.
- Treat calluses
Crush 6 aspirins. - Add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice and water. - Mix well.
Apply the mixture to the affected areas.

- Get rid of dandruff

with the normal amount of shampoo you use every time you wash your hair. Leave
this aspirin-shampoo mixture on your hair for 2 minutes. Rinse well and wash
again with plain shampoo.

stings
How to use it – wet your skin and rub an aspirin over
