Keep yourself from overeating this holiday season: Always bring a toothbrush! No matter how strict you are about your diet, it would be almost impossible to resist all that great food! However, there is a very practical way to keep from overeating: Keep a toothbrush and toothpaste in your bag. The taste will help kill your appetite and cause you to eat less. Plus opt for whitening toothpaste to help remove the red wine stains!

Dirty neck rings around shirt or blouse collars can be removed by putting shampoo on them. Rub the shampoo in like you were washing your hair. Shampoo is specifically made to remove body oils.
