Today’s beauty tip about shaving your legs

If you like to use shaving cream or lotion to shave your legs, in a pinch, grab your hair conditioner and apply that to your legs. It will work just as well, and leave your legs soft and smooth when you’re done.

Tuesday’s Tip – how to snuf a candle

Use a snuffer to put out candles.
It may seem frou-frou, but putting out a candle with a snuffer, instead of blowing out the flame, keeps wax from getting all over the table or on the floor. You may have to seek out a pewter or candle store to find one, though. Or order online.  Antiques stores often have decorative snuffers.
