1 PAINLESSLY TAKE OUT A SPLINTER
A simple trick to getting a splinter out of your skin without any discomfort: Soak the area in vegetable oil for approximately 5 minutes. This will help soften the skin so you can extract the splinter quickly and easily without any pain.
2 Beautify dull hair in a blink
The surprising secret to soft, silky strands: Warm 1 cup of vegetable oil in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds, massage into dry hair and cover with a shower cap for 20 minutes. Shampoo as usual. The oil moisturizes and fortifies hair for lovely locks.
3 Preserve the flavor of cooking wine
When you have leftover cooking wine that you'd like to save for a future recipe, reach for vegetable oil to maintain its quality. Just add 1 tsp. of the oil to the bottle before storing it in the refrigerator. It will create a protective barrier on top of the liquid, warding off any oxidation and helping preserve the wine's flavor.
