I use it to dry out pimples. It’s also great for cold sores, mouth ulcers and healing wounds. It can hurt but it’s one of the best disenfectants around. I was pre-surgery once and I got a nasty cat scratch – any risk of infection can mean your surgery is cancelled. The surgeon asked me what I did and I said that I’d put metho on it – he said it was the best think I could have done because its 95% alcohol (depending on what you buy).

Hi Liesl,

You can use glycerin to intensify your powder shadows.

Hi Rosemarie,

That’s an interesting tip. I don’t think methylated spirit will harm your body when used topically (on the skin).

I have heard to use Metholated Spirits to strenghen nails. You dip your nails for 4 Minutes into warm Metholated Spirit and then 4 Minutes into warm Olive Oel.
Would the Metholated spirit in any way harm your body? I would appriciate your Reply
Friendly Regards
