Here are the recipes for my homemade cleaners!
Shower and Tub Pre-Spray - 1 cup vinegar + 1/4 cup dish soap
Vinegar Water Spray - 1 part vinegar + 2 parts water
All-Purpose Soap Spray - Fill spray bottle with water + 1 tsp dish soap + 5-10 drops orange or lemon essential oil
Thanks secret slob.
.love your channel you are kool 🙂
Thank you for the recipes!! I’ve switched to natural cleaners this year but hadn’t found one I like yet for the tub. I’m excited to try it! The tub/shower is my least favorite thing to clean in my whole house!! Love your videos!! God bless!!
Put the Dawn & Vinegar into one of those dish sponges with a fillable handle. I just wet my entire bathtub and then scrub with the sponge as the mixture comes out and then use the shower head to rinse clean. 🙌🏻
Hi Steph is it the all purpose spray you use on the floor?
Can i use the all - purpose soap spray to wipe the dust?
The vacuum trick in the bathroom!! Why have I never tried that? Definitely going to do that next time. 👍🏼
My teenage son does this when he cleans the bathroom and I used to think it was gross for some reason, but now I'm going to have to give him a pat on the back! :) He said it's so much easier!
I have wrestled with anxiety for the better part of a decade, and one of the worst symptoms is how overwhelmed I feel about cleaning. Your videos have helped me SO MUCH. I love love love the “progress not perfection” slogan and find myself repeating it during the day at times when my anxiety about the state of my home normally escalates. The daily swish and swipe has all but erased my issue with cleaning my 4 bathrooms. It’s so easy that my kids can each do a sink and toilet upstairs and I alternate between the two downstairs. The 2 min hot spot and daily 15 min declutter have made my pantry and the kids’ toy room so much more organized, and I’m not spending entire afternoons working on them. And waking up to a clean kitchen sink is the ultimate balm for the anxious soul. I had heard of the fly lady system but seeing a self-professed secret former slob demonstrate that it is sustainable has made all the difference for me. So glad I found your channel!
Thank you so much for your comment:) I'm glad you are seeing progress in your home.
Unrelated, but I cleaned out my sink today and got a lot of trash and recycling out. And cleaned bathroom floor (just a quick touch up). So, feeling ready to do a mini-house blessing / declutter downstairs. I had a mini-stroke maybe 3 weeks ago. I've been sliding since lockdown started. I'm high risk, so I'm mainly still in lockdown. Anyway, I think after the mini-stroke I'm feeling very cautious about not over-doing things. Like they say 'jump back in". Steph & Diane in Denmark sure are encouraging!
Hello Steph! I just want to tell you: You are my Lifesaver! Like Diane was yours.
I tried the FLY Lady system (I couldn't get a book at that moment) and quite didn't understand. But with your videos I learned how to do it and got the feeling I can also make it. So THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Love and hugs from Austria! 💜💜💜💜💜
Aww I love that. Thank you so much Michaela 💙💙💙💙
Girl do I love your mantra "Progress not perfection"!!! ❤❤❤👍👍👍
If you squeegee the glass and walls after each shower (takes like 30 seconds), then they never get nearly so "dirty" looking and are super fast to wipe down when cleaning. If you have hard water, it also prevents the minerals from "etching" your glass over time. Another tip is something I learned from my grandma: keep ends of bar soap in a mesh bag and it makes a super quick, effective tool to scrub the tub down. Just get it a bit wet and scrub around the tub and rinse. It's easy enough to do for each bath (otherwise my kids leave a grubby tub behind so no way I'm only doing it once a month as part of the zone cleaning).
I love your bathroom. I use a hand vac (shark) in my bathroom most days - just a quick maintenance clean. One tip: I’m short and have trouble reaching the high tiled walls. I use my flat head mop to clean it. And the sheetrock walls. Works great.
Really great tip! Thank you!
I’m not the only one who vacuums out the tub. I tend to do it every time it is used because for whatever reason the dirt doesn’t drain with the water well in my tub.
We use those dollar store cloths for cleaning, too! Grandma loves giving them to us, and they love receiving them because of all the characters... But they are terrible for bath time! They do make great cleaning cloths, though. I felt kind of bad at first... Now I don't anymore. Thanks, Steph!
I’m an Ole girl but I literally learn something every time I watch your videos! 😆
Awesome! Thank you!
I use your shower and tub spray and wipe my glass shower with a magic eraser. Absolutely brilliant glass !!
Thank you for all your help , it has made a huge difference to my life ❤ ♥
Love your channel! Did you know that if you gently heat the vinegar and dish detergent mixture in the microwave or putting your spray bottle in a bowl of hot water it will make more effective? Perhaps you do this already? Keep up the good work!
I did non know that!! Thanks for the tip!
I read to use Rainx on the glass shower after you clean it... I just used it on the outside of all my windows when I washed them. I haven't tried it in the shower yet but it's on my list this week!
I was so excited to see the new video because i thought you were gonna take a break after the planning video. My favorite part abt this video is that you re so quick and efficient, you made it look so easy because you worked intentionally, and you re not all over the place, i will def do the vaccum trick 😍😍😍
Hi! I am just taking a break from the weekly planning videos 😀 ill still post my usual stuff 😃🎈
Looks great as always! My newly remodeled bathroom has a combo washer dryer area off to one end. And the cat litter is in there too. So I have laundry dust and litter dust plus my long hairs everywhere. Egads! Luckily the utility room is right next to the bathroom so I keep my little 5-7 gallon shop vac. I do a full round of the room, behind the toliet, and by the dryer and litter along all the chair rails ( love em but regretting that decoration choice) and all the base boards. Never considered vacuuming the bathtub before cleaning! I put in a dreamy extra large jacuzzi tub but boy oh boy is it a pain to scrub. I often use my spin mop to really get it scrubbed out. I found tide -just a bit - is also a great to break down my soap and hard water build-up. Hugs from Ohio! -Em
Thank you Steph, my house has never been so clean. You made the fly lady system easy for me. Love from N.C
I'm so glad!
I love seeing posts from you. Short and sweet. I like how easy cleaning is with you because I hate to clean but like a clean and tidy house.
Same here!!
Definitely learned a couple things here! Thanks for making this video!
When we had our glass shower installed, the installer suggested that all of the inside glass be sprayed with Rain X to prevent residue buildup. He stated that it needs to be repeated yearly. I have found that it works very well and have also found other areas to basically put a wax coating on such as the inside of our toilets and our cat’s litter shovel.
Great tips.
I think the equivalent washing up liquid in the UK to Dawn is Fairy, sometimes called Fairy Liquid. It’s been around for years & is brill.
I used to have a glass shower door but it drove me mad, as I could never get it clean enough. In the end I replaced it with a shower curtain, so much easier.
I love the smell of the original Fairy liquid!! Xx
Only my husband and I use our bath/shower, and use a rubber squeegee to remove the water from our bath/shower walls and floor every day after I finish showering. If I do that, I only need to use a rag and shampoo to clean it once a month. I loved this cleaning video! Steph’s personality is so pleasant and motivating! Thank you!
If only I wasn't too lazy to do that every time haha
If there was a "love" button I would hit it. I love every video you do! I also prefer to use natural cleaners as well. I like Thieves. :D
Yes, I like those cleaners too!
Hey Steph, everything looks wonderful! Thanks for the video! Have a wonderful week
Vacuuming the tub and the toilet is the best idea ever!!!!! Thank you!!!😍😍😍😍
Right?!
That vinegar dawn soap mixture is the best! Sparkling clean! I use it for almost everything 😂
Love your videos. Love the color of your bathroom too! Thanks for sharing and motivating me.
Great tips! Thanks
Oh thank you for the recipes! I always love love love your videos. You inspire me to feel I can accomplish this!
Looks great! 💜💜💜
Great tip with brush head of vacuum-- Thanks!
Nice explanations!
Another great video Steph! You are such a motivator! I had a huge shower in my last house and hated cleaning it. This house I shower in my tub with a shower curtain because it's so much easier to clean. I love homemade cleaners too. So much cheaper and better for our world. I've been using Tide powder to clean a few things since finding the Go Clean Co. site. But I'm not a bleach fan. But the Tide powder, hot water and spin mop is terrific on floors. But might be too wet for your beautiful hardwood. Mine is old and not so great so I'm not as protective of it. Have a great week! :)
I like to vacuum in the bathroom as well. And then I just use the Norwex Enviro cloth to clean the floor on my hands and knees (our bathroom is like the size of your shower so it doesn't take long). I also use this cloth to do Swish & Swipe. I really like the mint Method spray for swishing the toilet (really I only use it for the scent). Same cloth + the Norwex Window cloth on the mirror is amazing.
Had I not found out the hard way that the Enviro cloth removes silicone grout I would also use it to clean our bathtub shower. So I had to switch to the Dawn & Vinegar mix. A tip is to keep it in one of those dish sponges with a handle you can fill up with soap; works great!
Ooh i like that idea too!
A cheap, scratchy washcloth is abrasive?! Brilliant! Haha! And vacuum everything first, 🤯! Thanks for the tips! Gonna go clean right now.
Happy to help! Good luck!
Thanks for all the tips and tricks! My bathroom needs a really good clean. I like your video's so much! I'm trying out the zone cleaning. Also I folded laundry (almost) every day after lunch, what a difference! Please mind your back while cleaning...!
Really appreciate your honesty about how overwhelmed you were with cleaning your shower. I went through the same thing!
It truly is the worst job in my opinion.
Woah thanks so much for this cleaning inspiration! #RisingToBe #AsWeRise #Riser #KeepRising #ImARiser
I’m glad you admitted that the new style of showers are hard to clean. I kept my tub/shower with a shower curtain because it is easy to clean. I just throw the curtain in the wash-no scrubbing.
Seriously! I won't ever want anything other than a tub shower with a curtain.
Same here. We have a small shower stall and when we remodeled it, we took the doors off and and had a shower curtain track attacked to the ceiling. We use a shower curtain and a liner. I just pop the liner into the washer and viola. When it gets worn, I just buy a new one and the old one gets relegated to the shed to use in projects and so forth. We have hard water and there is no way I could keep glass shower curtain doors clean.
Love your tip about using the vacuum with the brush attachment in the bathroom. I never considered that! Tried it yesterday during my home blessing and it was great! Love your channel!
Glad it was helpful!
Really dear it's very nice and easy way to clean our home with save our lots of time and energy to and really you show the very comfortable way to prove it completely.
Great morning dear have a nice day with lots of happiness and peaceness.🌄🌿🍀🌼
Thanks for sharing your fantastic cleaning tools and recipes. I can’t seem to bring up the vacumn attachment?! It just takes me to general items in Amazon?! Love your video...this was very helpful!
Love your channel! So motivational!
These "natural" cleaners are also much better for the environment (which our planet seriously needs!) ... Something that rarely gets thought about or mentioned by American and Canada You Tubers... But thank God is a natural advantage/outcome when you all do it for the cheap cost!
Totally! Cheaper, safer , cleaner for the earth and they actually work!
Scratchy is the perfect description for those wash cloths 😆
Heyy Steph, loved this video! I take it this was one of those days you got the opportunity to spend 1 hour all in one go, rather than the 15mins at a time.... I sometimes prefer this way, just depends which room! Great video!! Xx
It was! I did it on a day my husband was off and I just got after it!
I love this. Thank you for this video. Can you break down the cloth/rags/paper towels you use when cleaning the bathroom?
Do you use only 2 cloths (The Elsa one and the polishing one) for the entire bathroom? I am always tossing cloths into the "done" pile when I clean my bathroom - like wipe the shelves and counters - toss cloth, wipe the back of the commode -- toss cloth, wipe the mirrors -- toss cloths.
Always enjoy your videos. I hate the bathroom too..especially the tub. 🦋
I hate the shower and tub and the kitchen stove and range...lol.
Loved this video!! Im getting into the fly lady system (again) lol and i've found your videos so helpful!! Do you have a video on that vacuum cleaner by chance? I noticed you have an amazon link to it.. im in the market for a vacuum bc the cordless one i have now, shoots stuff everywhere out the back and stops working half the time lol so im debating going back to a cord one!
Not yet! I do like this vacuum though :)
Thanks Steph. Great video. Yes, I love your glass shower but I cringe at the thought of keeping it clean. Now to buy me some towel like bath mats. That makes so much sense. Perhaps for the new people you could explain where deep cleaning fits in (the process involved in Zone Work).
I realized after I totally failed at mentioning the flylady system. I have to remember to not assume everyone knows about it lol. Thanks! 💙💙😀
hey steph, you really helped me understand the flylady system, your videos are awesome! thanks a lot!! how long does it take to clean the whole bathroom?
It depends how long it's been since the last clean..but generally 30 minutes for a GOOD clean :)
Hey, Steph - It's so satisfying to look at the room afterwards and see how pretty it looks, isn't it?! Great tip about vacuuming! It's weird how porcelain surfaces act like a magnet and hold dirt and dust. I don't use vinegar when I am cleaning. I use a mixture of my favorite plant-based dish soap and surface cleaner (it stretches the product), water, and a bit of lemon essential oil. I save my surface cleaner spray bottles and by mixing these ingredients, I can stretch the cleaner to fill several bottles. It works great, smells great, and I don't have to worry about vinegar-sensitive surfaces. Have a blessed week! ❤️
I’m new here and watching! 🥰
Welcome :)
I love the wall color. What color is it? I also use those wash clothes to do my dishes lol. Works great! Plus easy to tell which ones are for dishes and which ones are for cleaning.
Lol that is too funny, my kids are always excited when we get new 'rags' lol!
New subscriber here! You can also wash your toilet brush with a vinegar solution to keep it clean.
Great tip!
Thank you so much! I love the vacuum idea. Also, we are remodeling our bathroom and currently have a jacuzzi tub with has junk that always comes out of the jets so we are replacing with a regular tub. Our space is similar to yours. Do you like your freestanding tub? We are between the freestanding and the drop in and I noticed your beautiful tub.
There's a cleaner -- I think it was "Oh Yuk" -- that is made specifically for cleaning inside the vents and jets of that kind of tub. I saw a gal on her CZcams video use it when she was doing an initial cleaning on a home they'd just moved into, and it cleaned a bunch of blackish gunk out of the jets in that (otherwise clean) jetted tube. She let the jets run for about half an hour. She said she loves that product, and has used it before. I don't have that type of tub, so I haven't tried it, but maybe all yours needs is a good cleaning inside the jets. Hope this helps.
@@annw1395 Thank you Ann! I'll give it a try:)
Great video! What kind of vacuum do you have?
Hi Rhonda! Check out the video description and there’s a link to my vacuum:)
Why have I never thought to use a vacuum on my bathtub in our main bedroom? It doesn't get used as much and gets dried leaves from our plant. Thank you for the tip! Now on to finish the video...
Is that vinegar dish soap mixture work on plastic surrounds?
I had no idea about vinegar and grout. I’ve just had both my shower recessed regrouped and the guy recommended using vinegar n water over harsh chemicals.
My trick is to do some self care . While cleaning . . Spray the shower / toilet / sink . Then Mask your hair and face . Clean the toilet/ sink / cabinet / medicine cabinet / floors . Then as you are in the shower removing the face and hair mask you can clean the shower
Love that!
I love your bathroom. That aqua color is so pretty 😍. Thanks for sharing your tips. This is kind of embarrassing , but one of my showers hasn't been cleaned maybe once this year. It's gross 😨. Yours almost looks like a picture in a magazine.🤗💗
Yes...I cleaned my shower after a year a few months ago! No judgement here!
Thank you 😊. Have a lovely day!🌈
My shower finally got cleaned a month ago. Lol!
Will you please repost a new link to your vacumn attachment for use in bathrooms? Thank you!
I have a bunch of those terrible washcloths that scratch my kids’ faces. I’m going to start scrubbing!
Method do a shower cleaner which I just spray on the tiles and leave, I also have
a dishmatic with vinegar, fairy (dawn) and water with a couple of drops of orange oil in, and before I get out I rub over the glass, rinse, step out spray tiles. All done.
Hi Steph, love the vacuum tip! How long did this whole routine actually take you?
Hey Lex! It took about 50 minutes :) The shower takes so looong!
The Secret Slob luckily I just have a bath/shower combo so a little easier although your setup looks nicer :)
I never thought about using the vacuum and brush attachment in the bathroom every month when I would be complaining about the wet dust and dog hair that I was trying to get off.
Hello New to your channel. This formula you use is the one my grandma taught me! Her house always smelled fresh and clean I was wondering about something... this last year or so I have been making homemade apple cider vinegar. I just looked at the link you posted and the ingredients for this is "unfiltered vinegar white". So I will go and research that. Maybe someone here has done this and can if it's ok with you to let us know what and how to make it homemade style>???
Hello Steph, great video, I'm definitely going to start using using DIY cleaners, I spend so much money on so many different cleaners for each different jobs....which also means more clutter!! So once I have used them up, I won't be re purchasing....think I'll save a ton of money!! Xx 😻
You will save a ton of money! A giant gallon of vinegar is 3 bucks and lasts me at least 6 month!
@@TheSecretSlob thanks, I need to save all the money I can at tbe moment 😻 xxx
@@TheSecretSlob Hello Steph, sorry to trouble you again....I've now made a list of DIY cleaners from this video 🤩....Could I check what cleaner you use to clean down your kitchen unit tops....to complete my list xxx😻

My favorite disinfectant is force if nature . initial cost is higher but then its $1 a bottle and I go through 5 bottles a week tight niw
Also I have been trying to find a way to deal with all the pet hair on the porcelain. Finally!!! An answer
I didn't know vinegar would eat away grout. That explains why it's happening in our bathroom; I've used vinegar to clean the tub and tiles with grout around the tub. No more!
Yeah its a hard one. I have used baking soda to scrub tiles with some success too!
is those croc flip-flops u have on Ma
What paint color is that in your bathroom? It’s so pretty!!!
Cloverdale 7502 - soothing song
I'm tired just watching you!
The bathroom was this past weeks zone for me and although I gave it a good cleaning last time and I didn't think it would be that bad, (also I do the swish and swipe almost daily) - it was a really bad and took me more than the 1 hr allotted, and it's a small bathroom - the cupboards in there are part of the 15 min de-clutter but I have rarely done that one because I really don't want to tackle any of the clutter , but that bathroom really needs de-cluttered - would be really nice to have someones help...
Yes, the bathroom can be a big job to tackle! Feels so good when it's done though!
Is this when you are zone cleaning?
yes :)
The link to the vacuum brush attachment not working for me! Help?
Suzanne Lavin I’m on it! Thanks:)
How long does it take you to clean the whole bathroom?
Depends how long since the last clean! Usually about 30 minutes for a GOOD clean :)
Do you only mix vinegar and soap, no water? I need to clean my shower door almost every second day🤔🤔
There's water too :)
💕😍😘
Can you tell me the name of your vacuum cleaner?
Vacuum - amzn.to/3iP3mDM
Vacuum Dusting Brush Attachment - amzn.to/3iDggo
So how often do you do this? That is one thing the FlyLady system doesn’t cover. It talks about de cluttering and the blessing hour, but no other cleaning. I guess laundry is mentioned, but not the real cleaning that needs to be done. Thanks!
All the other deep cleaning happens in Zone cleaning. Look for Secret Slob's playlist for zone cleaning.
The basis is to break your home into 5 zones and then each week of a month you work in that zone doing all the deep cleaning that needs to happen; example week 2 of the month is kitchen so you work for how much time you have (even if it's only 15 mins for 4 days, making 1 hour a week) available for cleaning. I would say on average it would take 2 months to get through your lists, making your home deep cleaned completely every other month. Shoot, even if this happens every third month that beats the usual once a year spring cleaning every does (maybe haha).
So I bet this video is Steph doing her zone with all her bathrooms in it. 😏👍🏻
Like Jenny says ^ its all in the zone cleaning.
Tell me about your blinds! Can you tell me what kind they are?
I’m curious about them also! They look so nice and fold up so easily.
Tell me too please 😊
Lenovo!
Is this zone cleaning?
Yes!
@@TheSecretSlob isn't this more than 15 minutes?
The dish soap and vinegar does a great job but the smell is so toxic. I cannot stay in the bathroom while it soaks and I have to wear a mask while wiping it down!
Really!? I actually like them smell! haha Maybe add some lemon essential oils??
I like to clean the shower when I'm done showering. I get myself clean then I wipe down the whole thing before I even get out. It's kind of a two for one deal. It works really well.
Your shower must always sparkle!
How do you clean a nasty caked on toilet.
I’ve been following gocleanco on Instagram. They use water+bleach+tide for everything. I’m in a covid hotspot so I use this mixture on doorknobs and high touch areas.
Yes, I've heard of this mixture! I still need to give it a try!
Tip: Dry your shower glass/tub down with a towel after every use and you will NEVER have hard water damage ever!!! My friend lived in her house 15 years with a glass shower and had not one water mark due to after shower drying. The towel drying takes a couple of minutes (with no soap needed) This was a huge game changer for me! 😊👍🌼🍃
The vinegar won’t eat the grout because the soap in the mixture neutralized it.
You have pretty feet
Soap neutralizes vinegar. I don’t understand how it cleans better than water.
Dish detergent isn't the same as Castile soap. There's a discussion on Reddit that covers some of the chemistry.
Jessie C acid vs base is the chemistry.
Yes, but a) if you have just or recently mixed them, they are still reacting, which helps dissolve stuff and b) acid + base does not become water, it just evens out the ph between them. The soap is basic, yes, but that is not its only important property when it comes to cleaning, otherwise the ph neutral or even avodic soaps wouldn’t work for anything.
