however as generous as you may be there are some things that you should never
share with others embrace your inner greed when it comes to the personal
things that should remain persona the aftermath of oversharing can have a
surprisingly disturbing consequence here is some of the stuff that you should
never share with others number one toothbrushes while you may be inclined
to borrow someone's toothbrush when you forgot yours or can be dangerous
consequences dentists state that sharing a toothbrush
is a bad idea from a hygienic as well as a medical standpoint unless the
toothbrush is put in boiling water after being used you can be exposed to germs
and gum disease number two lip balm the lip skin is one
of the most vulnerable parts of the body which makes sharing lip balm ill-advised
even if the lip balms owner has no signs there's a risk of easily catching a
disease like herpes number three toothpaste
while not as risky is swapping toothbrushes sharing toothpaste should
be generally avoided toothpaste can carry infections especially if the
spouts edges touched contagious bristles which is more likely than you think
number four tweezers tweezers can easily become a carrier of blood-borne
infections if not properly cleaned between uses
while the chances of catching a disease through the average tweezers are fairly
low it's not worth the risk when all you have to do is clean the tool first for
number five razors it's not advisable to even share
razors with anyone else they quickly accumulate tons of dead skin cells and
bacteria also if someone has cut themselves using a razor sharing it
could result in picking up a blood-borne infection number six nail clippers nail
clippers should be disinfected with an alcohol containing solution after every
use nail clippers can carry bacteria and sharing them can risk transferring
someone's fungi which can result in athlete's foot number seven towels
sharing towels is to be avoided due to their ability to retain moisture and
other bacteria especially when they hang in a wet bathroom contaminated towels
can transmit fungal infections and bacteria that can result in acne and
pinkeye number eight deodorants most deodorants
don't actually eliminate any odor causing bacteria but instead just mask
them they're for sharing deodorant isn't a good idea because it's solely
transferring someone else's sweat and traces of their bacteria number nine
bar soap a bar soaps purpose may be too clean but it still does get dirty this
means it shouldn't be shared among people there's a multitude of illnesses
that can be transmitted by direct skin contact through sharing soap with others
number 10 ear buds ear buds can easily transfer the bacteria from one ear to
the other when shared it's important to make sure to wipe off any ear buds you
plan on exchanging with someone else number 11
make up sharing makeup is a bad idea especially eye related products this is
an easy way to contract everything from pinkeye to canker sores number 12 stuff
you put on your head anything that makes contact with the head isn't a good idea
to share due to the risk of spreading lice
this includes everything from hats helmets and pillows to hair brushes and
combs number 13 pumice stones pumice stones are prone to becoming full of
dead skin from the feet which makes it something you should definitely not
share sharing these stones can result in transmitting fungus or in some cases
strains of HPV that cause plantar warts number 14 earrings you may be used to
sharing jewelry with your friends but earrings are different
while proper sanitation can eliminate the risk of transmitting any blood-borne
infections it's best to limit your earrings to your ears only number 15
flip-flops throwing on a pair of a friend's flip-flops may seem harmless
but they should be considered personal items considering flip-flops are worn
often in the summer or by wet feet they can easily be prone to harboring fungus
and bacteria which can result in athlete's foot or warts number 16
pillowcases these places to put your pillow can quickly become home to hair
product residue dead skin bacteria and germs while your own pillowcase is okay
others can result in your skin breaking out number 17 underwear most people
cringe at the thought of sharing underwear but some don't see the problem
with secondhand undies if they've had a good wash however it's best to make sure
you're the only one wearing your underwear sharing can not only lead to
STI s but some bacteria can also be incredibly resistant and still managed
to infect number 18 floss never share floss this might seem obvious but
considering one couple on TLC's cheapskates admitted to it there are
probably more people who think it's okay sharing floss is an easy way to transmit
viruses and should never be done number 19 computer keyboards this one might
seem odd but bear with us here keyboards can become home to more germs than a
toilet the more your keyboard is shared the
more prone it gets to harboring bacteria make sure those who are typing away on
your device wash their hands regularly number 20 cellular devices cell phones
much like keyboards can become a breeding ground for germs due to this
it's best to keep other people's fingers or face away from them number 21 loofas
yes you might only have one loofah in your shower but this is inadvisable
mostly because they're a breeding ground for fungi and viruses an infected loofah
can cause acne nail fungus and even ringworm why are these bath time staples
so deadly well it's because they're usually damp which means bacteria fungi
and viruses and grow on them easily scientists dr. Whitney beaux had this to
say in regard to loofahs my rule of thumb is that if the item is usually
damp never share number 22 anything in a jar no we don't mean things like jams or
jellies or pickles unless you're using your hands to get those after mention
foods out no we mean things like Vaseline face cream and other products
of the sort why is that you asked dr. Whitney BOE once again says every time
anyone dips their fingers in new germs contaminate the entire jar so they go on
to the skin or face of whoever uses the product next so yeah you better start
using toothpicks to apply that face cream you wouldn't want to get sick
would you number 23 nose clippers besides the fact that sticking something
that has been in someone else's nose is just plain gross the nose can carry some
pretty nasty bacteria as well bacteria like staff in mersa both of which can
cause mild infections on the skin like source or boils often which often hide
out in your nostrils and just in case you hadn't already figured this out they
tend to latch on to anything you've struck up your nose recently like saved
a pair of nose clippers if you want to share nose clippers then you should
probably disinfect them after every single use number 24 hair trimmer here
we're talking about things like electric razors unless the trimmer is properly
sanitized like it is at the barber shop then you should never share it with
someone else after consulting dr. Whitney bow we discovered that sharing
dirty trimmers can transfer the bacteria from another person's face onto your
skin increasing the risk for acne and follicle itis so yeah
unless you want skin blemishes or a common skin condition in which the hair
follicles become inflamed then keep your hair trimmers to yourself number 25
