Introduction:
Every now and then, life offers simple, yet ingenious, solutions to everyday problems. One such solution has recently gained attention: a clever cleaning hack involving shaving cream. While this might sound a bit odd at first, there’s a surprising and effective reason why one lady swears by spraying shaving cream around the toilet bowl. In this article, we’ll explore this unconventional cleaning method and why it could be your new go-to trick for a cleaner and fresher bathroom.
Ingredients:
Shaving cream (preferably foam, not gel)
Toilet brush or cloth (for cleaning)
Optional: essential oils for added fragrance
Preparation:
Start with a Clean Toilet Bowl:
Ensure that your toilet is clean, or at least free of any obvious debris. A quick scrub with your usual cleaner can help prepare the surface.
Spray Shaving Cream:
Take your can of shaving cream and spray a generous amount around the inside rim and the sides of the toilet bowl. This doesn’t need to be overly thick, but ensure that the areas you want to clean are covered.
Let It Sit:
Allow the shaving cream to sit for about 10–15 minutes. During this time, the shaving cream will work its magic by loosening any grime and deposits, while also leaving behind a pleasant scent.
Scrub:
After the waiting period, use a toilet brush or a cloth to scrub the shaving cream around the bowl. You’ll notice that any stains or deposits start to lift away more easily, leaving the surface looking fresh.
Flush:
Once you’ve scrubbed, simply flush the toilet to rinse away the shaving cream. Voila! You have a cleaner, fresher toilet bowl.
Presentation and Storage Tips:
Presentation: The result is a sparkling clean toilet bowl that smells fresh and feels smooth. The shaving cream helps create a thin, protective layer that can also help prevent the buildup of new stains.
Storage: Store the shaving cream in a cool, dry place when not in use. While this hack is great for regular cleaning, make sure to use shaving cream specifically for this purpose and not any gels or creams with added moisturizers or fragrances that might leave a residue.
