I’m a clumsy eater but have the best hack for when you get oil down your top – it’s vanished within an hour
A SELF-STYLED “curl guru” has revealed she uses her dry shampoo on more than just her hair.
Social media personality Imaan Duh also uses the nifty aerospray to remove oil stains from her clothes.

She said that being a “clumsy eater” means the hack is a crucial part of her life.
Imaan took to TikTok to expose her secrets after spilling food down her crisp tee and people were seriously impressed.
She said: “Obviously, I have an oil stain on my shirt.
“I was eating Carrabba’s.
“But watch this.”
Carrabba’s is an Italian-American chain restaurant that serves up oily snacks like deep-fried mozzarella balls and courgettes.
Imaan proceeded to liberally spray dry shampoo onto the stain from a ten centimetre distance.
The result was a large white patch of dry shampoo covering the stain and the area around it.
She left it to sit on her T-shirt for “around an hour” before the big reveal”.
Brushing the dry shampoo off with a napkin to reveal a stain free top, she quipped: “Okay, watch this.
“Oil stain… where?
“Dry shampoo is a hack.”
The science behind it is that dry shampoo is an aerosolized oil-absorbing powder.
That’s why it works so well on making our oily locks look like they’ve just been washed.
People in the comments of Imaan’s video suggested that talcum powder works just as well, too.
It was praised as a cheaper alternative to using your “hella expensive” dry shampoo.
One viewer gushed: “I’ve thrown away clothes with an oil spot.
“This is a life hack for real.”
A second echoed: “Oh my God, this always happens with my lotion.
“I’m trying this.”
Other ways of removing the dry shampoo from your beloved top is with the back of the spoon to scrape the flaky remnants off.
The hack can also be used on old oil stains that you haven’t been able to lift in the wash.
