Make Your Home Shine

You can combine it with Epsom salt to clean a stainless sink or the bathtub. Also, the hard water stains and stubborn soap scum on the glass shower doors can be easily scrubbed off in the same way. Lemon can make your home shine even when it’s combined with vinegar or baking soda. And lemon peels can help you get rid of unwanted ants. Simply place some on window sills and door thresholds and in any cracks or holes where the ants could get in.

Besides using lemon for cleaning your home, you can also use it as part of your beauty routine.

Such mixture is often used for brightening nails, by simply applying the paste to the nails and massaging lightly.

So, when life gives you lemons, you don’t only make lemonade. You can use them in many different ways and the above are just some of the many possible, so hopefully, you will try to copy them.
