1. Add some water to the bottle

Do you remember that famous slogan:"when there's more, there's more"?

Well, it is squarely valid here.

Add a little water to the empty dish soap bottle and shake.

The water will dilute the few drops that remain at the bottom or on the walls of the bottle .

This allows you to do several more washes without buying new products.

The smart little thing par excellence!

2. Use Marseille soap

Marseille soap is natural and inexpensive.

But its strong point, is that it degreases everything it touches.

Rub the soap on your sponge and clean the dishes with this foam. Rinse with hot water.

You'll be surprised how clean and spotless it is.

This trick works with bar or liquid Marseille soap.

3. Dilute soda crystals

Pour about 70 g of soda crystals into a basin of hot water and stir to dilute.

Then, immerse your plates and cutlery in the basin and let them soak for at least 15 minutes.

Rinse well with warm water.

What I love about this technique is first of all the "0 effort" side, because there is no need to rub.

But above all, the plates are degreased and very shiny .

4. Use white vinegar

White vinegar is one of the essentials to have in your cupboards.

It degreases, deodorizes, descales. ..

For dishes, it works super well.

Especially for making glasses shine and removing white marks.

And even to remove tea stains from cups.

It can be used pure or diluted.

Soak the dishes in a basin of lukewarm water with at least 250 ml of white vinegar, scrub and rinse with hot water.

To remove white veil or tea stains, put pure vinegar in the glass and let it act for at least 1 hour.

Rinse with warm water.

5. Degrease with sodium percarbonate

Cleaning a gratin dish that has burned is a nightmare.

Take it easy!

Put 2 teaspoons of percabonate in the dish and fill it with very hot water.

Let it work:watch it foam!

1 hour later, you will see all the fat and burnt-on residue coming to the surface.

It's time to rinse off with warm water.

Your dish is impeccable without rubbing.

6. Pickle with bicarbonate

Like white vinegar, baking soda is one of the star products for those who love natural things.

Mix a little baking soda with water to form a paste.

Take some of this paste on a sponge and clean your dishes.

Be careful, do not rub too hard, it can scratch fragile dishes.

But for all the dishes that don't suck like the ones bought from IKEA, no worries!

Bicarbonate degreases, removes residue and deodorizes .

7. Make your own dishwashing liquid

7 Ingenious Tips for Doing Dishes WITHOUT Dishwashing Liquid.

Why didn't you think of that earlier?

It only takes a few simple ingredients to make homemade dish soap.

Personally, I love this recipe, because it is super degreasing.

Plus, it's ready in minutes .

Can I bleach?

The answer is:NO!

Bleach is not made for cleaning dishes on a daily basis.

It is a toxic product that must not be ingested, breathed in or come into contact with the skin.

Suffice to say that it is not at all recommended for washing dishes.

And then, in addition, it pollutes nature.
