10 surprising things you can use baby oil for

6. Shaving

You can use baby oil to get super smooth results after shaving. Thanks to the oil, your razor will slide over your skin very smoothly and it will reduce the chance of irritation. Do be careful that you don’t spill oil because if the oil gets on the floor of your shower, it’ll become very slippery and you might slip and fall.

7. Remove stickers

Are you unable to remove stubborn stickers from surfaces? Rub a bit of baby oil on the sticker in question and let it sit for a minute or two. It’ll come loose a lot easier when you come back to it.

8. Remove paint stains

Have you been busy with a brush and some paint and are you left with paint stains on your skin? Or have you dyed your hair but has some of the dye ended up on your skin? You can easily remove this with baby oil. Rub the oil onto the stain on your skin and let it soak for a few minutes before wiping it off again. This is much better for your skin than roughly scrubbing away the paint.

9. Door hinges

There are few things more annoying than the sound of creaking hinges. Of course, you could go out and buy a special product to oil those hinges, but it’s much easier (and cheaper) to use some baby oil. Apply a few drops of the oil onto the hinges and the annoying sound is a thing of the past.

10. Shine

You can get several things around your house back to their original shine with the help of baby oil. Apply a few drops of the oil to a cloth and use this to rub leather, stainless steel, chrome, or wood and your things will shine like never before. Attention: a little bit of baby oil really is enough already – don’t use too much of it.
