Original Purpose: Moisturizing infant skin.
Aha! Use: Untangling necklaces. To get a stubborn knot out of a delicate chain, place a drop of baby oil on a sheet of wax paper. Place the knot in the oil and carefully work it out using two pins instead of your fingers. Wash the chain in warm, sudsy water.
Reward: A smooth chain and silky cuticles.
Other Uses: Removes makeup. Cleans tar from the bottoms of your feet (pour on a cotton ball and scrub).
