Scrubbing Bubbles Toilet Cleaning Gel

cleaningmama — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 02:47:31 +0000

scrubbing bubbles gel tube

According to the product it says “Cleans and freshens with every flush”

When this product was out in the market i was thinking how will it work, I mean how it will keep the toilet bowl clean with just flushing? But i was wrong my friend bought it and then I wanted to give it a try. I was amazed how long my toilet seat was clean without using any other product. Now this is my top most favorite with flushable max pads. It comes with the gel dispenser which means no more touching like other toilet bowl clip on. It has 6 gels disc each last for one week. If you use traditional clip on toilet cleaner then do give this product a try and u will be amazed too. All i need is this gel disc in my toilet seat and flushable pads and my toilet seat is clean. I would say it is also way better then the toilet bowl drop in which makes water blue with every flush sometimes leaving residue behind.

Tip on how to best use it: attach the gel disc with dispeanser inside the toilet bowl which will sit under the rim for a week.

Tide To Go Stain Remover Pen

cleaningmama — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 02:44:27 +0000

What it says it does “Save the moment with the #1 instant stain remover”.

My husband isn’t always careful so he usually gets a stain on his clothes either by food or tea . So I am always on the outlook of a good stain remover. When I saw Tide to go stain remover at my local grocery store I immediately purchased it. The next day I tried it on one of his shirt which had a stain, I was very curious to see what would happen. At first the stain became wet then it started to spread so I left it for about ten minutes, when I came back and saw it was still there. Of course I was upset and thought of trying again. A few days later I tried it on another spot and was still disappointed with the results. I am sorry but I don’t like using it anymore. Maybe because it works well only on fresh stains and the stains I tried on were already set. I personally think it has more cons than pros. May be if they add a little bleach to it, it would work better. I would not recommend using it.

Tip on how to best use it: Only on fresh stains. but it leaves a wet spot . Final verdict: I did not get the results for what I paid. It leaves a wet spot .A huge wet mark is a stain too, isn’t it?. It will sometime lighten the stains but not 100%. And colored fabrics the wet mark is more noticeable. Above all smell is awfull. i am not a fan of this product.

Lysol All Purpose Cleaner with Bleach

cleaningmama — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 01:48:00 +0000

Lysol All Purpose cleaner with bleach is a effective cleaner since it has bleach in it; it cleans the toughest of stains and makes home germs free. It has a very strong odor. need to be careful while using it and avoid inhaling. It can be used on countertops, floors, appliance exteriors, glazed ceramic tile, sealed grout, tubs, sinks, toilet bowls, and other hard non-porous surfaces. It truly is an all purpose cleaner but has to be used with extra caution and not around kids or domestic pets. Another thing is to avoid our clothes from getting in contact with it so it does not stain them white. Even though it is very effective I avoid buying it because I have kids at home.Tip on how to best use it: Apply LYSOL All Purpose Cleaner with Bleach with damp sponge, brush, or cloth to surfaces. Wipe clean and rinse. Final verdict: effective cleaner but has strong smell. May damage clothes.all in all it can be used every where kitchen and bathroom. have to be carefull around kids and pets.

Dawn Simple Pleasures Dish Washing Liquid

cleaningmama — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 01:35:25 +0000

I always enjoyed using Dawn dishwashing liquids since they clean perfectly and give a whole lot of satisfaction than many other leading brands. When I saw dawn’s simple pleasures I purchased it. At the bottom of the dish soap bottle there is a chamber filled with air freshener. We can control the amount of fresh air by peeling off the sticker from either one side or both sides. It comes in four scents. Now whenever I come near my kitchen sink I can smell flowers, which is a great plus point since it covers up the smell of the dirty dishes. I have only tried the blue one which is jasmine and lily although it has more of a jasmine smell but I love it. I am sure going to try the other scents. This way I can keep my kitchen smelling fresh at least when I am doing the dishes because I usually don’t use a dishwasher. Thanks dawn.

Tip on how to best use it: Keep the bottle near the kitchen sink and use depending on the number of dishes.

Clorox Greenworks natural stain remover

cleaningmama — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 01:31:36 +0000

The idea of green actually appealed too many since it is made up of natural ingredients. I haven’t really tried this product but defiantly will give it a try since its natural and does not leaves harsh chemical residue. This product is most suited for those people who have sensitive skin or do not like strong floral laundry detergent smells. I have heard good reviews about it from my friends. The stain remover I am using is oxyclean which also does a good job for me. But I might switch because of natural ingredients. It does say it removes all the tough stains.

Tip on how to best use it: spray it on any sort of stains, rub for a few minutes and wash away with warm water or put it in machine to wash.

Clorox Disinfecting Wipes

cleaningmama — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 21:59:35 +0000

According to the product it says “Clean and disinfect with the convenience of a wipe.“ I usually use these on things that have small parts or buttons like remotes, toys, telephone etc. It is also a good idea to wipe off handles, door knob to make them germ free. Just one wipe can clean a lot of dirt since the texture of the wipe is thick and doesn’t tear soon. It’s very convenient and easy. It does not contain chlorine bleach. It comes in many scents fresh scent, lemon, orange, and lavender. It also comes in to go pack so if you use it very often to go pack will come handy. i find this product a little expensive than other leading brand in the market like Lysol wipes which are less expensive and does almost the same job. i use disinfecting wipes quiet often . Usually when i don’t feel to wash n spray bathroom i simply wipe basin with disinfecting wipe quickly or the outside rim of the toilet seat or kitchen sink.

Tip on how to best use it: works well on small parts.whenyou have viruses that cause colds and flu disinfecting wipes bleach free helps to clean small thing which we touch like remotes , door nobs sepecially when we have small kids around us. wiping away will kill germs. Final verdict: very easy to use and handy. but the count is very less it may run out quick. it is safe on many surface but do not use on unpainted wood.
