As a college student, it’s hard to ignore that it’s interview season. There are loads of students on campus dressed up in their interview attire, a clean pressed suit with a light colored dress shirt/blouse inside. They are clearly dressed to impress, but if you look down you’ll often see one mistake: dull shoes.
I ran into this interesting article from DIY Life a couple weeks ago about shining your shoes with the inside of a banana peel, and recommended it to my friends. At first, they didn’t believe me, but when I explained that potassium is a major ingredient in shoe polish, they agreed to try it.
Try it for yourself! Just a few benefits: save the money you’d spend on shoe polish, save the time running to the store, prevent the mess of the icky polish, reduce the waste of having shoe polish around in lots of different colors.
Has shining my shoes with a banana peel simplified my life? Sure has.
