Posted: 09 June 2025

There’s something quietly satisfying about a freshly cleaned bathroom

We’ve gathered a few of our go-to bathroom cleaning hacks that are quick, easy, and surprisingly effective.

We believe little rituals matter, and a clean bathroom is the perfect first step.

Hack 1: Clear Shower Scum with Vinegar and Dish Soap

Mix equal parts white vinegar and dish soap in a spray bottle. Spray down tiles and glass after your shower, it melts away soap scum with minimal effort.

Hack 2: Remove Bathtub Stains with a Magic Eraser

Use a damp magic eraser to gently lift soap scum and rings. It’s a low-effort way to bring back that bright white bathtub.

Hack 3: Prevent Mirror Fog with Shaving Cream

A little shaving cream rubbed on your mirror (and wiped away with a soft cloth) stops it fogging up post-shower. It also leaves it sparkling and streak-free.

Hack 4: Shine Taps and Fixtures with Fresh Lemon

Cut a lemon in half and rub it over your taps and shower fixtures. The natural acid lifts grime and water marks while leaving behind a lovely citrus scent.

Hack 5: Freshen Your Toilet with Baking Soda and Vinegar

Pour 1 cup of white vinegar and 1 cup of baking soda into the bowl. Let the bubbles do the work while you tidy up elsewhere. After 10 minutes, scrub and flush. It’s a gentle, natural clean, no harsh chemicals needed.

And when you're done? Sink into something soft. Whether it's fresh linen bed sheets or your favourite linen robe, you deserve a touch of luxury.

Hack 6: Dust Skirting Boards and Lights with a Dryer Sheet

Wipe down skirting boards, shelves, and bathroom lights with a dryer sheet. It lifts dust and leaves behind a subtle, clean scent. The perfect pick-me-up in-between deep cleans.

Hack 7: Deep Clean Grout with Baking Soda and a Toothbrush

Dip an old toothbrush into baking soda and gently scrub grout lines. Add a splash of hydrogen peroxide for tougher marks. It’s the little details that make the space feel fresh.
