Leather Socks
– To increase the durability of your leather socks and reduce stretching, moisten them, place them in a sealed plastic bag, and store them in the fridge overnight. Take them out in the morning and let them air dry; you’ll find they feel stronger and more resilient.
– Note that you don’t need to do this after every wear; it can be a periodic treatment.
Moisturizers and Eye Creams
The cold temperature will help refresh your eyes and give your skin a more invigorating feel, so it’s a good idea to store your moisturizers and eye creams in the fridge.
Denim
– To keep your denim looking fresh and feeling sturdy, occasionally place your jeans in the fridge.
– Fold your jeans neatly into a plastic bag, seal it, and then open the bag slightly to let some air out before placing it in the freezer for a week.
– At the end of the week, take them out, and you’ll be surprised at how fresh they look.
Eyeliner Pencils
The leads of your eyeliner pencils will become firmer when chilled, making it easier to create precise, flawless lines.
So, go ahead and pop those eyeliners in the fridge!
Nail Polish
– Storing nail polish in the fridge will extend its lifespan, but the cold temperature may cause it to thicken, making application difficult.
– It’s best to only chill the bottles you don’t frequently use, keeping your everyday polishes at room temperature.
Pillows
Remove the pillow filling from its case, place it in a plastic bag, and put it in the fridge for a few hours. You’ll find that it feels refreshed and more comfortable when you use it, and it will last longer, too.
Sealed Envelopes
If you’ve sealed an envelope without putting anything inside, don’t worry! Place the envelope in a plastic bag and put it in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
The adhesive will contract due to the low temperature, making it easy to open the envelope and insert your letter or any other item.
Fresh Flowers
To make your flowers last longer, place them in the fridge, and they’ll stay vibrant and beautiful until your event or gathering is over.
