When faced with the glitter aftermath on hard surfaces, such as floors and tables, experts recommend steering clear of the typical go-to tools like brooms and vacuums. Maira Urzua, housekeeping director at Nanny’s and Granny’s, warns against using a broom, as sweeping tends to spread the glitter further. Rochelle Wilkinson, lead dirt detective at Dirt Detective Cleaning, advises against vacuuming large glitter spills, as it may irritate the filter and trap glitter inside the machine.

For effective glitter cleanup, Wilkinson suggests employing disposable pads designed to trap debris and tackle most of the glitter. Once the majority is cleared up, you can either use a vacuum for the remaining pieces or follow Urzua’s recommendation: opt for a sticky lint roller to capture smaller particles and finish with a damp cloth for the rest.

When it comes to rescuing your upholstery and clothing from the clutches of glitter, cleaning experts suggest you don’t need any fancy tools. A lint roller and tape are your secret weapons, ensuring a gentle touch that won’t harm your fabrics.

Wilkinson recommends starting with a handheld lint roller for a couple of big sweeps. If some glitter remains, wrap packing or duct tape around your first two fingers and dab at the glitter. For clothing, Urzua adds to turn the garment inside out and wash it on a gentle cycle.

Banishing glitter from your hair is no longer daunting. Celebrity beauty expert Millie Morales shares her trusted method to free your strands from these pesky particles.

Apply hair oil in your hands, gently rub it through your hair, and use a mouse tail comb for easy glitter removal. Follow up with shampoo and conditioner, which hydrate your hair for smoother glitter management. For post-glitter care, Morales recommends leave-in conditioner cream to keep your hair smooth, manageable, and protected from potential damage during the glitter removal process.

Whether on your hands or face from glittery makeup, oil is your trusted ally for removing glitter from your skin. Take some cotton rounds and soak them in face-cleansing oil, baby oil, or olive oil. Gently dab the oil-soaked cotton rounds on glittered areas, and watch the glitter effortlessly come off.

No matter where the glitter is, it is possible to get rid of it; it just takes some time and effort. Lucky for you, these expert tips will help you make the process so much easier.

Mixers come with so many different attachments that it’s sometimes difficult to determine which one you should use. Using the wrong tool can lead to messing up the recipe and putting the life of your mixer at risk. If you’re someone who enjoys spending time in the kitchen, this little guide will definitely be helpful. Discover the difference between these three common attachments.

The name of this attachment pretty much speaks for itself. Use this one when making any dish that involves yeast, such as pizza, bread, pasta, and buns.

This mixer attachment is particularly helpful if you’re dealing with heavier dough, as it saves you time and energy. If your dough hook is spiral-shaped, it will do the job.

Rest assured that the flat beater tool will quickly become your best friend. It will help you beat heavier mixtures such as mashed potatoes, cake and cookie batters, meatloaf, frostings, and more.

If you love baking, you can use it to easily cream butter and sugar. It’s perfect if you’re making a cake or a homemade frosting. If your mixer comes with a few beaters, we recommend using the flat one for optimal results.

While the other two attachments are mainly used for heavy textures, the wire whip is used for light, delicate mixes. This tool is a game changer when it comes to homemade whipped cream, angel food cake, or meringue. You can easily guess which one it is by its appearance, as it is also called a balloon whisk. Use it for all sensitive ingredients that need a more gentle touch, such as egg whites.

We don’t recommend using the wire whip for heavy textures as the mixture will stick to the center of your mixer and will be difficult to clean. Now that you know what these three attachments are for, you can approach your cooking and baking with a lot more confidence!
