Do You Use Baby Powder?

Perhaps you use baby products like shampoos, lotions, and oils, but do you douse yourself with baby powder from head to toe?

Perhaps you use baby products like shampoos, lotions, and oils, but do you douse yourself with baby powder from head to toe? To this day, my mom still uses baby powder post-bath — although she still hasn't quite mastered the art of not leaving behind a white dust outline, much to dad's dismay. Whether it's a talc-free formula, or good old Johnson's, which you could place in this vintage tin ($12), do you sprinkle on the white stuff?

Sugarshock Shoutout: Scent of A Baby

We have always personally loved the smell of baby powder.
Demeter Fragrance Library Baby Powder ScentWe have always personally loved the smell of baby powder. So it isn't a big surprise to us when Sugarshock points out that baby powder influenced fragrances are on the rise. Now that the market is saturated with florals something a bit more powdery still appeals to the less sophisticated scent consumer without scaring them. There are quite a few scents we like in particular Demeter Fragrance Library Baby Powder and i Profumi di Firenze Talco Delicato Image of Johnson's Baby CologneWe however are a little more unnerved that while there are people out there who want to smell like babies there are others who want babies to smell like adults. Johnson's Baby Cologne seems like a pretty disturbing idea to us. We found a commercial for it on Youtube that is just shudder worthy. It apparently has a gentle, fresh fragrance with a pleasant combination of floral and citrus hints. And its now more refreshing than ever! Proving that the grass really is always greener on the other side. We live in a world in which adults prefer to smell like talcum powder while insuring their babies to have a nice citrus scent.

Casa Quickie: Banishing Grease Stains

If you've been known to down a french fry or 100, you may have encountered a bummer of a grease stain on your Sunday best.


If you've been known to down a french fry or 100, you may have encountered a bummer of a grease stain on your Sunday best. Don't worry, this fashion crisis isn't unmanageable; it's actually fairly simple to repair. All you have to do to rid yourself of evidence of that munchie meal is sprinkle some baby powder or corn starch onto the stain, and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, brush it off and wash it as usual. The stain should disappear as quickly as those french fries did. Voilà! Now, off to In & Out burger for course two . . .

Get The Most From Your Makeup: Baby Powder

For all of you who thought that the function of baby powder was to keep your feet, underarms, backs of your knees cool and dry, I've got one more for you.

For all of you who thought that the function of baby powder was to keep your feet, underarms, backs of your knees cool and dry, I've got one more for you. You can use baby powder on the roots of your hair!

Say you are feeling a little greasy in between washings, or you overdid it on the styling products. Just put a little powder on your comb and brush from roots to ends. This will help absorb any unwanted greasiness.

It is the same concept as using a dry shampoo, only baby powder isn't going to cleanse your hair or make it smell as good as a hair fragrance would. However, it will get you through the day feeling slightly more refreshed, and your hair will definitely be softer and more manageable.
