If you've switched out your shampoo and body wash because they're laden with chemicals like sodium lauryl sulfate, there's no need to toss them into the trash when you can use them to get other things around the house squeaky clean. Here are a few ideas: Spot treat yellow stains around the collars and armpits in white shirts with shampoo a few hours before washing. Fill a bucket with warm water and a capful of shampoo or body wash and use it to mop your wood and laminate floors. If you want your toilet sparkling clean, squeeze a little body wash into the bowl, scrub and flush away the grime and dirt.

The American Academy of Dermatology says that one in five Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer sometime in his or her lifetime, so wearing sunscreen is an imperative step when going outside. The AAD suggests choosing a sunscreen that is at least 30 SPF, has broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays and is water resistant. How much sunscreen do you need for a day at the beach? You need about the amount that would fit in a shot glass. Bottoms up!

Most new bedding comes packaged in heavy-duty plastic covers that zip closed to keep sheets, comforters and blankets fresh. Instead of throwing away the plastic packaging, reuse it to store your winter wardrobe during the spring and summer. Fill the bags with sweaters, jackets, scarves and gloves and zip them closed. They will keep your clothes protected from moths and other insects, and you can see through the bag to grab something quickly if you need it.
