Chrome fixtures look their best when they're clean. Unfortunately, they also tend to gather water spots and grime easily. To give chrome faucets a good polish, squirt a dab of shampoo onto a sponge, sprinkle a little baking soda onto the sponge and scrub until you get a thin layer of this combination on the fixture. Finish by rinsing it with water and watching it shine.
Replenish leather
Whether it's in the form of a purse, a jacket, a pair of shoes or a couch, leather is always a good look. It's also somewhat difficult to clean, and you can't use just any product on it. One product that's completely safe for leather, however, is shampoo. Squirt a little onto a cotton pad and quickly wipe away any dirt or grime that's standing between you and a chic leather look.
Unstick a stuck zipper
Sometimes a zipper just refuses to slide closed, whether it's on a book bag, purse or favorite jacket. When this happens, put a small squirt of shampoo onto a cotton pad or paper towel and rub it along each side of the zipper. This will help "grease it up" so the zipper will slide smoothly.
