The best way to keep your Ugg boots looking fresh and new is to protect them from stains in the first place. Take your boots outdoors or to a well-ventilated area, then hold the can about 6in (15cm) away from the boots and spray them evenly. Wet the surface well, but do not soak the boots, then leave them in a cool, ventilated area for at least 24 hours. Once the boots are dry, brush them with a suede brush to lift the pile. You can purchase suede protector from a big-box store, leather shop, or directly from Ugg. Sunlight and heat can damage suede, causing it to discolor, shrink, and crack. Do not keep your Ugg boots in front of a heater or near a window where they'll be exposed to full sunlight. For instance, if your heater vent blows in a certain corner of your room, you wouldn't want to store your boots there. Although Ugg boots are very warm and are popular in the wintertime, they are not made to be weatherproof. If you're wearing your Uggs and it's raining or snowing, try not to walk through deep puddles or drifts of snow. If you do wear them when it's rainy or snowy out, wipe off your boots with a damp cloth as soon as possible, and leave them to dry naturally. Icy streets are often treated with salt. Since salt will leave stubborn stains that are difficult to remove without discoloring your shoes, it's especially important to wipe them down as soon as possible if you've worn them in icy weather. Just like any other material, the longer a stain sits on suede, the harder it will be to get out. If you get dirt or mud on your shoes, let it dry completely, then dust it away with your suede brush as soon as possible. If you need to, wash your shoes with suede cleaner and a damp sponge to get rid of any residue. Allow your boots to air-dry after you clean them.

Summary: Treat your shoes with a protective suede spray when you first get them. Avoid storing your shoes near direct heat or sunlight. Avoid wearing your shoes in deep water or snow. Clean dried mud and dirt off of your boots as soon as possible.

One way to help relieve pain from a cavity is to use natural extracts. You can use vanilla, almond, peppermint or lemon extracts to relieve pain from a cavity. Soak a cotton ball in the extract, and then place the cotton ball on the tooth or gum where the ache is. Leave it there for around ten minutes. You may also choose to put the extract on a Q-tip. Some essential oils have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that can aid in pain relief. Try using sunflower oil, sesame oil, oregano oil, nutmeg oil, clove oil, or tea tree oil to stop cavity pain. You can place a few drops of the oil into a few tablespoons of the water and rinse your mouth out with the rinse. You can also put the oil on a cotton ball or Q-tip and rub the oil directly onto the sore gum or tooth. You may want to try packing a cotton ball soaked in one of the oils, particularly clove oil, into the cavity. Try not to get the oil anywhere else in your mouth because it could cause irritation. Make sure you don't swallow the essential oil. Always spit it out. Plantain and peppermint leaves have anti-inflammatory properties that can help relieve pain in your mouth. To use for tooth cavity pain, place the leaves in your mouth and chew for a few minutes to release the helpful juices. Then, move the leaves over to the sore gum or tooth and let it rest there for around 15 minutes. You may also choose to use dried peppermint leaves or peppermint tea. Plantains are backyard weeds that have healing properties. The plant is in almost every backyard. The leaves are easy to identify due to the long, vertical veins along the leaf. You may be able to relieve cavity pain using fruit from your refrigerator. Lemons and limes may be able to stop tooth pain because of the citric acid and vitamin C, which have antibacterial properties. Cut the lemon or lime into slices. Then, bite into the slice to release juice into your mouth. Place the juice and the slice over your sore gum or tooth. Apple cider vinegar is used in many folk and home remedies for its antimicrobial properties. To make a rinse for your sore mouth, combine cup of warm water with two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Swish the solution in your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds. Make sure to swish it around the tooth with the cavity. Spit out the rinse and repeat two to three times. Rinse with warm water. You can do this three to four times a day, but do not swallow the water-vinegar mixture. Do not repeat the vinegar rinse for more than four days in a row. Vinegar contains acetic acid, which can erode the enamel surface, especially if you brush your teeth immediately after. Garlic, onion, and ginger are known for their antimicrobial properties, which can help with cavity pain. Place a small piece of garlic, onion, or ginger in your mouth, directly over your painful tooth or gum area. Slowly bite down on the sliver, which will release the juice inside. This will relieve the pain by numbing the gums. Asafetida is a plant known for its antimicrobial properties that is used in Middle Eastern traditional medicine. You can use this to make a paste to help with cavity pain. Combine teaspoon of asafetida powder with fresh lemon juice. Make sure to use enough lemon juice to make a thin, spreadable paste. Spread the paste on the cavity and around the gum. Leave it on for around five minutes. Rinse the paste from your mouth water. You can put the paste on your tooth two or three times each day.
Summary: Rub extracts on the tooth. Try essential oils. Chew leaves. Cover the sore area with citrus. Make an apple cider vinegar rinse. Bite into garlic, onion, or ginger. Try an asafetida paste.
