Does stashing a bottle of olive oil in your bathroom or hall closet sound absurd? It may seem odd to keep some anywhere but the kitchen, but this healthy dietary fat offers many amazing uses other than cooking. Check out these ideas that make it a must-have beauty and household product. (Note: Always speak with your health care provider before trying any medical remedies.)


1. Remove eye makeup. Dip a cotton pad into olive oil. Wipe it beneath your eyes and on your eyelids to remove eyeliner and mascara. Rinse with warm water and a washcloth and follow-up with your face wash.

2. Soothe chapped lips. Make your own lip balm with olive oil. Mix some coarse sugar with a teaspoon of olive oil. For some flavor and aroma, add a splash of lemon juice.

3. Moisturize skin. Apply a small amount of oil to nail beds to soften cuticles. A good time to do so? When you're cooking with olive oil. Also, put a thin layer all over your skin after a waxing or a shower. It will act as an intense moisturizer to soothe extra-dry skin.

4. Rejuvenate your face. Make an olive oil face mask.

5. Get a shiny mane. Rub a few drops on the ends of your dry hair. You'll be left with a glossy and shiny head of hair—and not have to buy a shine serum. (It also tames flyaways.)

6. Give your hair some overall TLC. Nourish, condition and detangle your hair with a DIY olive oil hair mask.

7. Soothe stretch marks. When you have stretch marks, you'll likely try anything to help get rid of them. Apply a generous amount of oil to affected areas every morning.

8. Use it as a shaving cream substitute. If you're out of shaving cream, lather legs with some olive oil. This natural lubricant will offer a close shave, preventing razor bumps and burn. Plus, it will moisturize your skin.

9. Repair cracked heels. Give rough heels some attention. Exfoliate with a pumice stone, then apply olive oil to feet. Lock in the moisturizing treatment by wearing cotton socks while you sleep.

10. Loosen earwax. Put some drops of olive oil in ears for a few consecutive nights. It will help reduce earwax buildup.


11. Get rid of chewing gum in hair. Put down the scissors! Apply some oil to the gum and hair around it. Leave on for five to 10 minutes; remove the gum.

12. Remove paint from hair. You aren't stuck with the color of your son's bedroom in your hair forever! Dab some oil onto a cotton ball. Rub it gently into your mane to get rid of the paint.

13. Alleviate cradle cap. Apply some oil to baby's cradle cap twice a day. Let it sit for a few minutes. Brush off the flakes.

14. Take care of your cat. Put 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon olive oil in your cat's food. It will help prevent hair balls.

15. Revive rain boots. Rub vinyl or rubber boots with olive oil and you'll eliminate any white marks. Just don't get oil on the soles, or you may slip the next time you wear the boots.

16. Unstick a zipper. Apply a drop of olive oil to a cotton swab. Rub it on the teeth, avoiding the fabric. The zipper should go up and down easily.

17. Avoid wax build-up on a candle holder. Before you put the candle into the holder, rub a thin coat of oil onto the holder's base. Dripped wax should easily peel off.

18. Shine stainless steel. Rub some olive oil on stainless steel pots, pans, flatware and sinks as an effective and safe way to make them shine. Unlike a harsh product like ammonia, this gentle one won't corrode or dull your stainless-steel items.

19. Dust wooden furniture. Apply some oil to a cloth. Wipe. Now take in your clean and shiny furniture.

20. Quiet a squeaky door. To lubricate and silence sticky door hinges, dab some oil onto a cloth. Wipe the top of the hinges so the oil goes down the sides. You can also rub the cloth on a creaky doorknob.

21. Unstick a ring. Rub some olive oil on a ring that's stuck. The oil will make it more slippery and it should slide off.

22. And finally  remove stickers. Apply a bit of oil onto a label or sticker. Let sit a few minutes. The sticker should easily peel off, without leaving behind any residue.
Even if you’ve never been on an airplane, you’ve probably heard the importance of turning your phone off or putting it on airplane mode during the flight. Considering phones now all have the mode as mandatory setting, there’s no denying that it’s necessary.


However, while we all know that we should be disabling the signals on our phones during our flights, many don’t know exactly why. There are many myths that circulate that it can disrupt the aircraft’s operating system or cause the plane to crash.



‘You may have heard that unpleasant noise from an audio system, that occasionally happens when a mobile phone is nearby,’ The pilot wrote. ‘I actually hear such noise on the radio while flying. It’s not safety critical, but is annoying for sure.’



Another person added, ‘It makes a bzzzt-bzzzt-bzzzt-bzzt-bzzt. Now imagine that noise in the pilot’s headphones, while [he or she] is receiving a critical bit of information from ground control!’



So maybe you won’t send the airplane crashing to the ground if your phone isn’t on airplane mode, but really the last thing you want to do is annoy the person flying the aircraft that you’re on.

The world’s favorite yellow-skinned, four-fingered family has had a special place in our hearts ever since it leapt onto our screens in 1987. 

But could The Simpsons actually be way ahead of its time?

1995 fight between Mike Tyson and Peter McNeeley in Las Vegas. Someone in the crowd is seen taking a picture from what appears to a smart phone device, or a device way ahead of the 90's. Aliens!!!

I dunno if it's a time traveller or not, but no one can explain what camera it is; a QV-100 doesn't have a silver bit on the right, and this camera doesn't seem to have a black line under the lens.

Meet Rosalia Lombardo. She died in 1920 and is now known as ‘Sleeping Beauty’. Despite her beauty, she is known to be a very spooky mummy as she has been seen to open and close her eyes.


Rosalia is the most famous among some 8,000 mummies lining the catacombs beneath the Capuchin convent in Palermo, Sicily. Poking above a blanket, her peaceful face is framed by curly blond hair, while a ribbon is still tied around her head.
