My magic skincare trick cleaned my sneakers in 5 minutes – the $10 buy has over 30 uses so I saved money with girl math
A SKINCARE fan has shared how she repurposes a popular beauty buy to bring her white sneakers back to life in five minutes.
The $10 budget item has several other uses and she ended up saving money if you think about it in terms of girl math.
Self-described “beauty survival bestie” Ashley Nicole Quiroz (@uglyducklingskincare) loves to talk all things skincare and also offers useful tricks to make life easier.
Sometimes they go hand in hand.
In an Instagram Reel, she demonstrated how she used a drugstore beauty buy to brighten her white Nike sneakers.
She explained in the quick clip that it was basically “girl math” to do this fashion trick.
The product has more than thirty uses for a variety of situations and occasions.
By spending around $10 on it, you’re essentially cutting costs on other things.
It also makes a “great double cleanser, according to Quiroz, and freshens up your brushes.
Micellar cleansing water lifts away dirt, makeup, and excess oil in just a few swipes.
Use it as a morning gentle cleanser or as a nighttime makeup remover.
You don’t have to rinse or rub to free your face of impurities.
“I love Micellar water to be honest. Nothing cleans like it,” a viewer commented.
Micellar water is a common cleansing agent for skincare, but who knew that it also can remove dirt and grime on your shoes?
If you’re interested in trying this cleaning hack, Quiroz shared the three-step process.
First, grab your micellar water and soak a reusable cotton pad with the liquid.
She said she prefers the Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water for Oily Skin.
Then, firmly press it to the area you want to clean so the area is saturated in the solution.
Lastly, just start swiping and watch the dingy color go away and its vibrant shade come to life.
She explained in the caption that “double cleansing” her sneakers took her less than five minutes.
