If you want to extend the life of your clothes, do not dry them in dryer. High temperatures are supposed to destroy them. Clothes prefer to air dry, but be especially careful with care of silk and wool items.

A sponge

Instead of using one whole sponge, which you need very quickly switch, yes cut in half. So you will have more sponges and you will also save money.

Banana

Banana lovers know, s what a nightmare they face on a daily basis – the banana, which was still yellow in the morning, is already yellow in the evening brown. But even that can be arranged! No banana tops separate, but wrap a plastic bag or foil around them.

Cleaning the curler

I get questioned pretty regularly about what products and styling tools I use. So here it goes: I usually wash my hair 2 times a week - Wednesday and Saturday. I do an oil treatment every other week along with a masque in the shower. My go-to shower products are Black 2 in 1/Clarifying for my first wash. Renew for my second. I switch between the replenishing masque and the heavenly hydrating masque. And then I use either our smoothing deep conditioner or our new hydrating conditioner. After the shower, I use 3-4 pumps of rejuvabeads. If I'm going to bed with semi-wet hair, I apply 3-4 pumps of leave-in conditioner and a nickel size amount of blow out cream. If I blow dry, I do a nickel size amount of blow out cream with 2-3 drops of oil. I always top off my style with oil and the sculpting taffy if I need more definition for my curls. Speaking of curls, I'm loving my @t3micro twirl convertible curling iron (1.25 inch) and of course, my products are all Monat. 💕 . . . . . #hairinspo #hairstyles #hairinspiration #hairstagram #monat #monatstyle #monathaircare #monatwithtiff #sundayfunday #sundayvibes #curlingiron #curls #t3micro #loosewaves #momsofinstagram #momboss #wahm #mompreneur #monatinfluencer #nashvillehair #nashville #hair #hairoftheday #styleoftheday

The ones you use curling iron, you will understand why you need to clean it. Now this task will be easier, because it is enough just to apply a few drops on a cotton cloth alcohol or a mixture of baking soda and water. Cool surface clean with a cloth.

Bread

If you want it to be bread stays fresh longer, place it in the bread pan together with green. Dish well close and leave it overnight. The next day it will be green dry, as the bread will absorb everything moisture, that's what helps him keep fresh.

Flowers

If you want your flowers stay fresh longer, then the solution to vodka and sugar. Add to the vase with water and flowers a spoonful of sugar and a few drops of vodka. This drink is supposed to help kill bacteria, which infect and destroy flowers.
