3 Ways Your Old Toothbrush Can Make Your Life Better

December 6, 2016 By Shelby Tatomir

3 uses for your old toothbrush

Your toothbrush is your teeth’s best friend—fighting plaque and helping your smile shine. But did you know your brush comes in handy for beautifying other areas, too?

Here are our 3 favorites:

1. Give Yourself A Makeover!

Who knew your old toothbrush could be your best-kept beauty secret? For a flawless-face free of flyaways, spray bristles with hairspray and gently wipe at your hairline. You can also use the same method to groom unruly eyebrows. Your toothbrush is a great exfoliator, too! Apply your favorite moisturizing balm to your lips and then gently scrub off dead skin.

2. Redecorate Your House!


Bring out your inner Jackson Pollock. Toothbrushes make unique interpretive art instruments. Bust out a white canvas, gather old toothbrushes and pick your favorite acrylic paint colors. Drip, flick and drizzle until you get a mantle-worthy masterpiece.

3. Clean Nooks & Crannies! 

The military used to make soldiers clean bathroom floors with old toothbrushes. While we respect the soldiers’ earth-friendly punishment, our toothbrush cleaning routine is all about reaching those nooks and crannies. The possibilities are endless: appliances, windowsills, keyboards, grout, shoe soles and even your hairdryer.
