Trial Run Monday Morning Beauty Tip

Fashion Saverz removes deodorant marks from garments.

When I first laid eyes on a pink, amoeba-shaped sponge that claimed to briskly whisk away new deodorant stains, my first thought was “silly and unnecessary.”

No need to scrub the marks with a washcloth and commute to work with wet blotches on my shirt or dress. The packaging says the sponge coach handbags wholesale, by a women-owned company called ZiziBizy, can also remove pet hair and makeup residue, and is good for up to 30 uses. Will I shell out $5 a month for a sartorial sponge? No. Will I use one when I’m on the go (or indulging my laziness)? You bet. That’s my kind of spring cleaning.
