The 99p buy that’ll keep your bathroom smelling fresh and banish urine odours and it’s perfect if you have little boys
A MUM has revealed her super cheap and simple hack that’ll keep your bathroom smelling fresh – and it will also banish urine odours.
Lily, who is known as @cleanwithlilyx on TikTok, shared a video featuring three cleaning tips that she claims “will change your life.”
First off, she suggests using bicarbonate of soda, which costs 59p from Sainsbury’s, and washing-up liquid to clean hairbrushes.
Hairbrushes are one of those overlooked items we often forget to clean, but experts recommend cleaning them thoroughly once a month – as well as combs.
However, if you have long hair or use lots of styling products, experts suggest you might need to wash them every two weeks.
It’s also important to remove the tangled hair left in the bristles.
Lily added: “The amount of grime that collects in these is unbelievable.”
She cleans her brush and comb by soaking them in warm water mixed with bicarbonate of soda and washing-up liquid.
Her second cleaning tip is using a lint roller to remove dust from headboards, which she praises as an “absolute game changer.”
Lastly, Lily recommends using shaving foam around the outside of your toilet and on the floor as it “helps prevent urine smells.”
She does this by spraying shaving foam, which costs 99p from Medino, onto the floor and wiping it up.
Within 24 hours of sharing her video with her 33.7K TikTok followers, Lily gained 87.4K views.
The video also received over 1,900 likes, with people rushing to the comments section to ask for more information.
One person asked: “How did you clean your brushes!?”
To which Lily replied: “Bicarbonate of soda and warm water.”
Another savvy hack that is going viral on TikTok is a 55p window cleaning trick.
