Discover the surprising uses of tea bags in the following article.

Treat red eyes

Tea has the effect of effectively treating dark circles

In addition to reducing dark circles, tea bags are also effective in relieving red and sore eyes caused by smoke, dust, and polluted air.

To treat red eyes, take out the warm tea bag after drinking tea, place it on your eyes, and lie down for a few minutes. Your eyes will feel relieved and the redness will disappear. Please note that this method is not suitable for red eyes caused by infectious diseases. Also, avoid using hot tea bags as they may irritate the skin around your eyes. Regularly applying tea bags, even when your eyes are not red, can help reduce wrinkles and eye bags.

Excellent meat tenderizer

Tea bags extract makes meat tender and tasty

If you have tough and hard beef or pork, use tea bags to tenderize them. Place the tea bags in a large pot or pan, pour boiling water over them, let them soak for a while, and then remove the tea bags. Once the water has cooled a bit, soak the meat in it for a few hours. For 1kg of meat, use 1 liter of water and 5-7 fresh tea bags or 15 used tea bags. The dishes made from this meat will be much softer and tastier.

Eliminate unpleasant odors

Tea bags effectively remove odors in the refrigerator and microwave

Dry the tea bags before using them to remove odors. Place these dried tea bags in the refrigerator and microwave to absorb any unpleasant smells. You can also use tea bags to deodorize smelly shoes by placing them inside the shoes.

Clean mirrors and glass

Use tea bags to clean glass and you will be amazed

To clean stained and smudged mirrors and glass, use used tea bags to remove dirt. Afterwards, wipe the surfaces with a dry cloth.

Fertilizer for potted plants

Potted plants thrive with tea bags as fertilizer

If you have potted plants, use used tea bags, even ones that have been used multiple times, to take care of them. Simply place a layer of tea bags at the bottom of the pot, pour soil on top, and plant the seedlings. The tea bags help regulate water in the pot, absorbing excess water from the soil and releasing water when the soil is dry. Over time, the tea bags will decompose and provide essential nutrients for the plants.
