Don't just throw away expired sunscreen! Amazing ways to recycle sunscreen

How to recycle expired sunscreen

Do you just throw away the sunscreen you used last summer?

Since it's an expensive sunscreen, it's really a shame to just throw it away.

So today, I am going to repurpose expired sunscreen that is too good to throw away for household use.

I'll tell you about four useful recycling methods.

 

 

Sticker residue removal

When you purchase a new product, there is a sticker attached that needs to be removed before use.

If you remove the sticker incorrectly, there is always sticky residue left behind, making it very difficult to remove.

 

In times like this, don't struggle to peel it off with your nails anymore.

Apply the remaining sunscreen evenly to the areas with sticky residue.

And let the glue swell for about 15 minutes.

Afterwards, you can easily remove it by rubbing sunscreen with a paper towel.

 

The oil ingredients in sunscreen penetrate the adhesive, making it easier to remove.

You will be able to see that the sticky residue has been thoroughly removed and the area is now clean.

Removing permanent marker

If you use a permanent marker incorrectly, it is never easy to erase.

If it's water-based magic marker, it can be easily removed, but oil-based magic marker is difficult.

 

In such cases, don't hesitate and just apply sunscreen immediately.

After applying a little sunscreen, gently rub it in with a paper towel.

Then, the magic ingredient seeps into the kitchen towel, and

You will be able to see that the written marker stain has completely disappeared.

 

Scissor cleaning

 

 

When sticky substances like glue or rust stick to scissors, it becomes difficult to use them.

Because the scissors' blades are sharp, it's not easy to clean them properly.

 

 

 

Please wipe the scissors blades with a kitchen towel afterward.

Please be careful not to hurt your hand and wipe it gently.

Then, the oil ingredients in sunscreen help dissolve sticky residues and old dirt, making them easier to wipe off.

 

After cleaning, you will be able to see the scissors' blades become this clean.

It's good to wipe the scissors occasionally when they don't cut well, so you can use them like new scissors again.

 

 

Easily remove stubborn stains

Stubborn stains on bathroom mirrors, faucets, and other household fixtures can become difficult to remove if left for a long time.

In such cases, please apply sunscreen appropriately to areas with accumulated dirt.

 

 

 

And just by wiping it with a paper towel, you're done!

This way, it helps to perfectly remove the old layer of sunscreen.

 

In particular, when used on bathroom mirrors, it not only cleans stains thoroughly but also

After showering, there's no moisture remaining, so it's easy to look at the mirror!
