Sugar can be widely used in everyday life

Sugar has many useful properties that we usually do not realize. We usually use it to sweeten foods, but this product can also remove stains and treat skin lesions. In addition, sugar is an excellent preservative for preserving the freshness of both food and flowers.

TSN writes about this.

So, let's take a look at these beneficial properties of sugar that you may not have even realized.

Sugar as a stain remover

Before washing, you can use sugar as a stain remover. Make a paste of sugar and water, apply it to the stain and leave it on for 5-10 minutes. Sugar will help dissolve the stain, making it easier to remove during washing.

Sugar as a preservative for food and flowers

Adding sugar to water for flowers can help preserve their freshness. To keep a bouquet fresh, add 3 tbsp of sugar and 2 tbsp of vinegar to the water in which the flowers are standing. This will help keep the flowers fresh.

Sugar to keep baked goods fresh

If you love baking, but often face the problem of staling, sugar can help you. Put cookies or buns in a container, add a few pieces of sugar, and close the container. This way, the baked goods will stay fresh and soft for several days.

Sugar as a face scrub

Sugar can be used as a natural exfoliator for your face. To make a scrub, mix 1 tbsp of sugar with your face wash or oil. Apply this mixture to your face and massage it in gentle circular motions. This scrub effectively removes dead skin cells and unclogs pores, leaving your skin smooth and glowing.

Sugar for hand cleaning
