Rejuvenate your skin
Aspirin contains salicylic acid, which works well like a clear-all for skin – mostly because it helps to reduce swelling, redness, and acne by removing oil and dead skin cells that are clogging them. Here’s what you need to do – just make a mask by crushing up 5 aspirin tablets, combine them with a ¼ cup of water, and one teaspoon of honey. Then, make sure you leave the paste on your skin for at least 10 minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. You can do this daily, weekly, or monthly to fit your skin’s needs.
Your flowers will last longer
I really think that we all know that our plants and fresh cut flowers have a tendency to wilt away and they can start to look sad very quickly. Well, you should know that this is probably because they’re producing ethylene gas as they slowly decay, but if you add a crushed aspirin to the water they’re in, your flowers will last much longer than not.
Remove perspiration stains

Did you know that swimming in a chlorinated pool can have a noticeable, and often unpleasing, effect on your hair coloring if you have light-colored hair? Well yes, but you shouldn’t be worried, because you can usually return your hair to its former shade by dissolving six to eight aspirins in a glass of warm water. Rub the solution thoroughly into your hair, and let it set for 10-15 minutes.
Dry up pimples
Unfortunately, even people who are well past adolescence can get the occasional pimple. But, you shouldn’t be worried, because you can dry up the annoying blemishes by crushing one aspirin and moistening it with a bit of water. Apply the paste to the pimple, and let it sit for a couple of minutes before washing off with soap and water. It will reduce the redness and soothe the sting. If the pimple persists, repeat the procedure as needed until it’s gone.
Treat hard calluses
