I never used vanilla extract before, but I knew I needed it in my life, so I bought some organic vanilla extract at a grocery store today.

By doing a little bit of research online and listening to intuition, I realized that vanilla is quite a handy thing:

“Everybody likes the smell of vanilla. Everybody but bugs, that is. Dilute 1 tablespoon vanilla extract with 1 cup water and wipe the mixture on your exposed skin to discourage bugs to enter your space.”

However when the bugs are all gone….

Dab some pure vanilla extract on your wrists and you will be smelling like you just came back from a beauty retreat on planet Venus.
