Be surprised by what you didn't know before: unexpected life hacks with oil

UAportal has prepared a list of interesting ideas and tips on how to expand the use of oil in different areas of life. Find out how this product can diversify your daily routine.

Wooden furniture care

Instead of buying expensive polishing products, you should use oil to create a natural wood shine. Mix equal parts of olive oil and vinegar in a bowl. These ingredients work together to clean and care for the wood.

Dampen a soft cloth in the mixture and gently rub the furniture in circular motions. The oil will penetrate the wood, giving it a natural shine and leaving a beautiful, polished surface.

Removing sticky plaque

If you need to remove stubborn sticky residue from price tags or labels, you can try oil. Apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the sticky area. Wait a few minutes to allow the oil to penetrate the residue.

Then gently rub the area with a cloth or a sponge to remove the residue. With the oil acting as a natural adhesive remover, the process will be quick and hassle-free.

Aromatherapy

Mix a few drops of your favorite essential oil, such as lavender or eucalyptus, with another oil, such as almond or grapeseed oil. Take a clean cloth or tissue and apply a few drops of the oil mixture to it.

Twist or fold the cloth to create a sachet or mini diffuser. Put it in a drawer, closet or carry it with you to enjoy the pleasant scent throughout the day.
