Recently, she tackled the persistent labels that are usually very difficult to remove. How can you do it in a simple and, above all, safe way? Check it out.
A simple trick to get rid of the label
The expert presented a simple method in her latest post, which allows you to quickly get rid of an unwanted sticker. To achieve this, you only need two items: tape (preferably wide) and a lighter.
First, stick a piece of tape on the label. Then gently heat the taped area with a lighter. After a moment, simply pull off the tape with a swift motion, and you're done.
"The label comes off like a dream," emphasized the influencer.
How to remove glue left after the label?
Sometimes, the label may leave behind glue that is difficult to remove. The solution, however, could be mayonnaise, which most of us have at home. All you need to do is apply it to the sticky area. After a few minutes, just wash the dish, and you're done.
Besides mayonnaise, nail polish remover also works well. In this case, soak a cotton pad with the liquid, then place it on the glue residue. After a moment, you can clean the surface. The sticky substance should come off easily.
