Cool! I love the Elmers Glue one
Tea fixes everything! I also like the aloe vera tip. I have a plant at home, and it's really useful to have around.
I always thought castor oil was fake, for some reason. I don't ever remember seeing it in the grocery store. The others, I'll have to try for sure.
Ugh I've had a couple splinters that I could not get out, and I tried so many internet rememdies ... wish I had seen this one using elmers glue!!
