If you have kids, you are already a master of ingenuity. You know how to make things work in ways that they weren’t necessarily meant to. You know I’m right, don’t you? Are you really going to tell me that you haven’t used a baby wipe to clean anything other than your baby? I for one, use them all the time to wipe off my kiddo’s high chair tray between feedings. There are so many hacks that can be made using baby products.
The Best Baby Product Hacks
Baby Wipes Swiffer Pads
If you have a Swiffer or a steam cleaner, you can use baby wipes as your pad. Brilliant right? They are cheaper than the pads you would typically buy and they do just as good of a job cleaning. They are also safe for letting your kids help you use them to clean.
Baby Wipes for Removing Makeup
Baby wipes work wonders for removing makeup and are far less expensive than typical makeup removing wipes. They are also much gentler than other options on the market. They are portable and perfect for keeping in your bag when traveling or those last minute cleanups when you smear your mascara.
Baby Oil for Removing Makeup
Baby oil is another baby product that is great for removing makeup. Rub it on your skin and simply wipe it off with a tissue. It is especially good for waterproof makeup.
Baby Lotion for Your Feet
If you suffer from dry and cracked feet, consider using baby lotion as your cure. Slather a thick layer of lotion on your feet before bed immediately covering them with socks. You will wake up with much softer feet.
Baby Shampoo for Body Wash
If you have sensitive skin, consider using baby shampoo instead of typical body wash products. Baby shampoo is made specifically for a baby’s sensitive skin, it works just as well for adults.
Baby Powder to Combat Sand Messes
Do you ever take your family to the beach and come home with more sand than you remember seeing while you were there? Baby powder to the rescue! Be sure to bring a bottle of powder to the beach with you and rub some on your kiddo’s skin before you leave the beach. The sand will fall right off.
These are just some of my favorites. Do you have any more baby product hacks that you have discovered that you would like to share? Having the right baby products on hand helps make your life as a new mom so much easier to manage!
