I just had to try this in my tub. I have a very difficult time keeping my tub clean due to hip and knee problems. It actually cleaned my tub just like you showed. I can't wait to try some of these other hacks. Thank you
I've been a nurse for 30+ years and we used shaving cream on incontinent patients and it completely removed all the odors both urine and stool. Unfortunately they won't allow it to be used anymore. We also used shortening "Crisco" on the same patients to prevent rashes and to repel urine from the skin, like you would with A&D ointment. Worked amazingly well, but that stuff is cheap and we all know that health care is not cheap. 32 years ago when I had my son 1 Tylenol was $7! My bill was itemized and I saw the charges for everything. The room was cheaper for a day than 4 Tylenol tablets! Of course that was a few years ago. Lol.
My daughter got charged a huge amount one time for a popsicle. She went to the hospital for stomach pain and she had symptoms of appendicitis and they gave her an IV full of antibiotic observed her for 23 hours, gave her Tylenol and the popsicle then took her temperature and sent her home. I few years later she had a surgery to remove her gall bladder and they took her appendix and the pathology report came back as chronically infected. I know they just faked that she was well enough to send home, then when we got charged $20 for a popsicle too I was furious. We were sure she had appendicitis because my husband had it very bad when he was 16, his cousin had it and his ruptured and he nearly died and was in the hospital for 6 weeks. His sisters son had it too and many others in his family had serious GI problems and a Great Grandmother died from some unknown stomach ailment. We think they have a genetic defect of some kind that triggers it. They also as a family have many who form stones in the gallbladder.
As a parent of an 11 year old who still wets every night I thank you! And Listerine huh? I keep a beard and for my neck I dry shave, so I have plenty of shaving cream under the sink
I always clean mattress by sprinkling a liberal amount of baking soda , then put hydrogen peroxide in spray bottle, spray it down, allow to dry then vacuum it up, cleans stains and deodorizers
Are you talking about the raised stitched edge of a mattress? Or just the outer edge of a stain? I have found the baking soda/ hydrogen peroxide takes it all away, haven’t had to deal with a stain on the raised edge of a mattress though but would still try the hydrogen peroxide mix if it was me
Does the hydrogen peroxide dry out by itself, how do you dry out the liquid spray from the cloth and foam etc mattress. I tried to remove a tiny spot and used water and soap as someone suggested. Now I have a huge outline of water mark, it looks disgusting . Please let me know if this process will work to remove the water mark. Thank you in advance.
I cleaned the kitchen trash can with shaving cream. I sprayed it on the lid and inside the can, let it sit for about 15 minutes and wiped it out. It worked like a charm without using a strong cleaner. And it smelled great!
Oh, the wonderful benefits of living alone! I don't get anything inside my trash can---nothing spills or leaks, that is---and all I have to do is wipe it out about once a month with a damp paper towel just because I like things clean. But I also live alone, and without a husband or others around, I can keep things as neat and clean as I want them to be. No stinky shaving cream anywhere, thankfully.
When I was younger and we worked out the carwash we used a lot of shaving cream on details for the inside of vehicles. We scrub the seats and the carpet with it. Because it is a mild soap it's easy to get out after cleaning and it smells great
These are great! The only trick I knew was not shown - spray it on your range hood! Because it doesn't drip it will stay and have time to work it's magic, breaking down the greasy sticky stuff. Does a better job than any kitchen cleaner.
Wow thanks for the FYI! I never thought of shaving cream for cleaning! I saw a video that works is using oven cleaner on your glass top stove. Leave over night scrape or wipe it of and like magic you have a stovetop that shines like it brand new!
@@madhatter909 .... I think they were speaking about the Range Hood, not the screen parts. I use Dawn, mixed with a few drops of Ammonia, for the screens, ... soak, then run the dishwasher. Sparkling every time. 🙂
Wow stumbled on this bored at work..I really like that it's short quick and you actually show what u doin ..don't just talk about it. And I enjoy your voice and pepiness in ur voice. Thank you. Hope you have a good day!!!
for bathroom mirrors/ car windows to not "steam up" cover them with foam shaving cream, let it dry, then buff it off. don't rinse, buff... you will have fog free glass/ mirrors for months! I promise this works great!
I was skeptical but oh wow it really does work on mirrors and sinks, they are sparkling! But just a very small amount is all you need, like a Bing Cherry sized or a bit larger amount of barbusol shaving cream! Also used on the wooden bathroom door where old cleaner had sprayed onto it and wouldn’t come off, well today my door is clean!! So happy😍. Can’t wait to use on my big shower today!!
I've used shaving cream on carpet stains for many years but used by blotting a lightly wet sponge after creams been sitting 10 mins & then suck up moisture & stain ingredients with paper towel. No effect on carpet except no more stain!
I love your tips! I was raised in the 60s and 70s, and we cleaned well and did top to bottom cleaning of everything in the Spring & Fall. Needless to say, when you maintain your home, or anything for that matter, they stay nice. That's key. That's one reason I've followed you for awhile, because your care and meticulousness show that you're successful at what you do. Thank you! 🥰
Gotta say, after house cleaning over 60 years, was a bit reluctant to believe this, but have got to let you (and your readers) know, it worked like magic. Theres something strange that happens in my husbands shower after the hot water and soap has been turned on, the scum becomes glued on to the fiberglass shower surround, and the only way I could get it off was scrapping it off with a razor scraper! Hated that, it got it but was hard work and wasn’t too happy doing it that way, so out of desperation, the shave cream was called into action...man, you have saved me hours and hours of work! Thanks soooo much! Mary in Florida ❤️👍🌺💥👌🏾
Shaving cream gets makeup stains (ie liquid foundation) off of clothing! My sister spilled half a bottle on her corduroy pants & the shaving cream got it out completely!
It's great for cleaning the grout on a tile floor around toilets. Leave on for a while then scrub off. Amazing especially if you have boys in the house!
@@Puppynutter123 let the kids see how far away from the toilet they can stand and then they can have fun cleaning it up with the shaving cream then it's a win-win for everybody
I remember in elementary school in the late 90s early 00s shaving cream was a school supply from Kindergarten to 5Th grade, just for cleaning desks, it was fun and definitely cleaned up the desks well!
He Andrea, I had to go try the shaving cream before I could finish the video and I couldn't believe how wonderful this was. I am an older woman and it has become increasingly hard to get the tub clean, in fact I have seriously fallen a couple of times cleaning it. No more. It also worked on my garage door which gets so scummy as all family members go in and out the garage door when they get home or just come visit. Thank you for the tips. Wish I had known about this 50 years ago. 🙂
After shaving foam ate away the paint on the inside of our medicine chest, I realized it’s probably not something we should put on our skin! But as a cleaner, it’s obviously amazing. Love the broom idea for the bathtub. I have a bad back, and I put off scrubbing the tub and shower way too long because I’m always in pain afterwards. But the broom method, I could manage. Thanks!
this lady just made me spring clean my whole house 🏠 yayyyy new subscriber here thabk u im ocd and old and adhd and I am on the 11 to 7 shift for some reason at my house too and I stay up at night and sleep during the day I hate it. It's becuase I've been a Nurse for years and it was my schedule 📅 🙃 😩 trying to get back on a routine of getting up around at least 11am. That would be a miracle for me.
Before using shaving cream on your glasses, mirrors, or car windshield, try a small area. I found it left a film/haze that caused things to look a little blurred. Then it was a major chore to get it all washed off. I don’t know if it was the brand or it could be the moisturizing ingredients they put in the shaving cream to protect the face.
In case that happened, I did rinse off well the shaving cream after cleaning with it on my mirrors and sinks, then I dried all well with an old clean rag hand towel. And it worked great! Also I found that I only need to use a very small amount of shaving cream to begin with.
Alcohol in the shaving cream can damage the anti reflective coating on your prescription eyeglass lenses. See online article: (Sciencing, How to Remove Anti-Reflective Coating From Eyeglasses)
Use shaving cream on your mirror in the bathroom and it will not fog up when you take a shower.i know this for a fact .I have also used it to keep my glasses from fogging up since wearing a mask
One of my kids teachers would spray it on everyone's desks and let the kids draw and play in it to clean the desk tops. Her room always smelled amazing afterwards and the kids were helping to keep her room clean and didn't realise it, lol.
I taught first grade for many years. On Tuesdays we'd always use dry erase markers to practice writing words. On Wednesdays i sprayed each desk with a thick layer of shaving cream and the kids practiced writing in the foam. Cleaned up the desks of EVERYTHING, and my room smelled fresh! As a mom, I'd let my kids practice writing in shaving cream on the kitchen floor. Those tiles were sparkling!
You just got a new subbie... I'm going to dollar tree in the morning and buy about 6 bottles of shaving cream and a dollar broom, so that I can clean the spare bathroom. I was at my wits end trying to figure out how I was going to clean that tub... Thank you sooooo much for these great tips.
Just an idea here…I use Head & Shoulders shampoo to scrub the soap scum off of showers & bathtubs & it’s always worked great for me!!! when I lived in homes with fiberglass bathtubs…those things are hard to clean! My go to is alway a good scrubbing with Lysol (the yellow liquid lemony kind) and then I follow up with Comet. I love Comet! But I find that even though I do get the soap scum off-eventually- I still have to put in alot of elbow grease. Unless I mix up a paste & let it sit for an hour or so…which I don’t always have time to do. So I started using shampoo to clean the bathtub & shower; while I’m already in there showering lol. I read this tip in an older published cleaning book I found at a garage sale years ago! It said we use shampoo to clean buildup off our hair, so it would clean the same buildup off our tubs! Which made sense to me! I found Head & Shoulders to work the best-but other shampoo will work. Head & Shoulders squirted on a sponge on the abrasive side & I did little scrubbing. I even tried Prell-it did not work! I remember always hearing not to use Prell because it’s so harsh & really strips your hair…so just to use it occasionally to remove buildup of products. Knowing it strips buildup I bought a bottle from the dollar store, thinking it would work wonderfully; it did not 😞. So I stick with my Head & Shoulders! I hope you try it!
Dollar General has the best ever cleaner for $3.00 for I think it's a 1/2 gal. bottle. It's called Awesome. Add your own water. I cleaned rust off my carpet. Buy the $1.00 bottle as well for the spray bottle. You can use it in your carpet shampooing machine. Never use undiluted on any painted surface.
Holy shoot! I went out after watching your vid. My area is baseboards (pets and I live in a dusty desert). Applied on Mr. Clean sponge and wiped. My baseboards look brand new!!!! Thank you for your tips. I'm onto my AC/heater vent now!
I have used shaving cream around the base of the toilet to get rid of urine odors. Let it sit for about an hour and rinse off! The bathroom will smell fresh & clean 🤗
Wooow! I will be buying some shaving cream. You have helped me with cleaning up the house alot. I also used the window cleaner with the sponge to clean my tub . Thanks.
This is the first time in my life that I have been excited about a cleaning project!!! My kitchen is screaming for help. I will report back my results. Thank you for your awesome content.
If you use shaving cream to remove stains from your carpet you should rinse it to prevent leaving behind the “soap” shaving cream is made of. If you don’t rinse those areas you cleaned it will be more susceptible to grabbing onto dirt and grime. It will also discolor your carpet over time.
I am still waiting for the rug to dry but I used this hack to FINALLY tackle a few stains on my living room rug. Carpet cleaner is not something I keep around the house! Shaving cream is readily available in my home so you can imagine my excitement when watching your video. Will update again later but I soooo appreciate the time you took in schooling us on shaving cream uses as a cleaning agent. Again, thank you.
Do not use shaving cream on your carpet. It’s essentially a soap, and because it’s not being rinsed off, you’re leaving a nice soapy buildup that will be a magnet for dirt and grime.
@@nancyposey9466 To my understanding there is no alcohol in shaving creams. Check it out online yourself. Shaving cream is used on the skin. I would not put anything with alcohol on my skin that would do damage.
I'm going to Dollar Tree as soon as they open (there's 4 locations that are within 15 minutes of me)nd clean them out of shaving cream!! I'm so excited to try the bathtub hack!
I love these shaving cream hacks! I use to get in trouble for always playing with the yummy smelling shaving cream as a child. Bonus cause now I can play and clean at the same time.
I was taking classes to be a licensed childcare we were made to play with shaving cream we all had a blast and she was just trying to show us how fun it was for the kids hahaha
@@roadtripboy I use a broom as my mother did and I prefer it to the wands. My response to you was in regards to the wands costing less than a broom; a broom is cheaper if it’s from the Dollar Tree.
Dawn dish soap plus baking soda mixed into lumps spread with broom, or deck brush, then pour white vinegar all around, finally scrub with broom or other scrubbing tool. Shave cream for polishing mirrors and glass. Good stuff. Thank you!
I absolutely love you! I don't even use shaving cream, but my friend left some over. My little ones left stains on the rugs at our last home, I've been scrubbing for hours. Im going to try shaving cream on everything. Love your hacks, fantastic!
I luv the brooms from the dollar store. They are lightweight and work well. We have one for inside and one for outside the house. Soon I'll get one for the tub and the shower in the 2nd bathroom.
Wow! I have to try these! I do have to tell you a funny story though . We were living in Bolivia. Someone I knew had gone to a conference. He was staying in the same cabin with a Bolivian. The Bolivian had never seen shaving cream before. He had said he had forgotten his shampoo. He asked if he could borrow this mans. The man said yes. The Bolivian man kept saying how horrible the shampoo was. It was actually shaving cream!
I work in a group home and have struggled for 6 years to get the wheelchairs smelling better (we have a couple of incontinent folks that have urinated in their chairs). I’m going smear some Barbisol on and see if that helps any. Thanks!
Hi Andrea. I tried shaving cream in my tubs and it is a happy thumbs up! I have a question for you: have you used shaving cream on window sills and window blinds? (one of my least favorite to clean are the blinds). I haven't tried it on the window etcs yet...just thought i would ask first. I'm so happy with the shaving cream that --no kidding--I bought $tree shaving cream for stocking gifts!!
I've been using shaving cream for years for cleaning lots of things! First thing I thought of using SC for, was when my daughter brought me her stuffed animal she had slept w every night from 2 years old till 22 years old. It was of the most value to her and very worn, and mended over the years many times. Too fragile and risky for most ways I knew to clean it... Shaving cream! I put some on my cloth, rubbed it into the back, least visible spot... Next I went over it, gently, w a water dampened cloth using little circle movements. The dirt was on the rinsing cloth! Next shoes, tools, walls. Patio furniture, pool toys! I've never thought of the plumbing fixtures! Thanks for new cleaning ideas! I just love SC!
THANK YOU!!! I have vertigo. I can not clean my tub without getting dizzy. I usually have to pay someone to do it..now I know how to do it and with what product. God 🙏 this video was actually a game changer!!!
Fellow Vertigo..OMG... I hate that feeling I get so bad..sick to my stomach too. It really sets in when I lay down to go to bed and turn my head..forget it... I feel your pain. 🙄
@@bja2you Thank you Betty. I have done that so many times. If I tell you that I fainted more than once doing it would you believe it? Horrible experience for me. Just left me deathly sick. Well deathly is an exaggeration. But I was down for the count. But thank you. Very nice of you to suggest.
It's much easier to vacuum your air duct vents. It works amazing and I'm sure you will like doing it better then scrubbing them. You vacuum the base boards anyways so just get the vent while you are doing the base boards.
Not all are that easy so I will be trying this one for I’ve already tried to vacuum the vent where the forever filter goes pull out once a Mth spray it with hose on super high like a power washer and walaaa no more $$$ spent on those throw aways. If your on a tight budget in a new house and don’t have a fresh coat of paint I can definitely see this working-Thanks Andre
Came across this channel today & so thankful I did. Was wondering what zi can do with shaving cream. Let Me share this channel with family & friend. Thank Yoh for channel creation. 👍
you can also use the broom to clean hard to reach places like the corners of the walls of your home and just brush the walls with the broom then wipe them down by putting a wet towel over the broom then wiping the walls down with the broom thank me later
Without thanks to you, I've been doing something similar for the majority of my life, and I'm nearly 70. It's not a new idea at all to clean walls in such a manner 🙄.
I can’t wait try all this tomorrow! I do remember when people sprayed our car with shaving cream to write out wedding wishes to us, it took the paint off!
My biggest challenges in cleaning are the glass shower surround (we have VERY hard water and nothing I’ve tried so far has worked) and the inside of the oven door. Will shaving cream work on either of these?
Hey Andrea .I stumbled onto your channel by mistake and glad I did...you have saved me with this tip Quick ❓ can I clean my cook top stove the same way?
I just had to try this in my tub. I have a very difficult time keeping my tub clean due to hip and knee problems. It actually cleaned my tub just like you showed. I can't wait to try some of these other hacks. Thank you
It can make tub slippery,you could end up with more hip and knee problems,hire a young housekeeper.
You can use regular cleaner with your broom, it doesn't have to be shaving cream so you won't have to worry about slip or a maid's price tag.
Does this work in a stand up showers I think plastic fiber glass
Trying right now

Robin may I ask why they don't allow the use of shaving cream anymore? 🤔
I've found it's perfect for removing those nasty little hairs that constantly grow on my face.
😂
😆
😅 good one.
Gee, I'll have to try that sometime. LOL!
You know, I found the same to be true. Now if I could find some ¨anti grow back¨ to apply to avoid having to shave again.

You just got a new subbie... I'm going to dollar tree in the morning and buy about 6 bottles of shaving cream and a dollar broom, so that I can clean the spare bathroom. I was at my wits end trying to figure out how I was going to clean that tub... Thank you sooooo much for these great tips.
Just an idea here…I use Head & Shoulders shampoo to scrub the soap scum off of showers & bathtubs & it’s always worked great for me!!! when I lived in homes with fiberglass bathtubs…those things are hard to clean!
My go to is alway a good scrubbing with Lysol (the yellow liquid lemony kind) and then I follow up with Comet. I love Comet! But I find that even though I do get the soap scum off-eventually- I still have to put in alot of elbow grease. Unless I mix up a paste & let it sit for an hour or so…which I don’t always have time to do. So I started using shampoo to clean the bathtub & shower; while I’m already in there showering lol. I read this tip in an older published cleaning book I found at a garage sale years ago! It said we use shampoo to clean buildup off our hair, so it would clean the same buildup off our tubs! Which made sense to me!
I found Head & Shoulders to work the best-but other shampoo will work.
Head & Shoulders squirted on a sponge on the abrasive side & I did little scrubbing.
I even tried Prell-it did not work!
I remember always hearing not to use Prell because it’s so harsh & really strips your hair…so just to use it occasionally to remove buildup of products.
Knowing it strips buildup I bought a bottle from the dollar store, thinking it would work wonderfully; it did not 😞. So I stick with my Head & Shoulders!
I hope you try it!
Dollar General has the best ever cleaner for $3.00 for I think it's a 1/2 gal. bottle. It's called Awesome. Add your own water. I cleaned rust off my carpet. Buy the $1.00 bottle as well for the spray bottle. You can use it in your carpet shampooing machine. Never use undiluted on any painted surface.
@@NotLuv22 I am sure going to try it. Thank you
Bonus when you clean bathroom mirrors with shaving cream is that it prevents fogging.
It works on car windows as well.
Holy shoot!
I went out after watching your vid.
My area is baseboards (pets and I live in a dusty desert). Applied on Mr. Clean sponge and wiped. My baseboards look brand new!!!!
Thank you for your tips.
I'm onto my AC/heater vent now!
I have used shaving cream around the base of the toilet to get rid of urine odors. Let it sit for about an hour and rinse off! The bathroom will smell fresh & clean 🤗
Shaving cream is the bomb thanks.
Love these hacks! I don't always want to use a cleaner or vinegar. Thank you so much!
Wooow! I will be buying some shaving cream. You have helped me with cleaning up the house alot. I also used the window cleaner with the sponge to clean my tub . Thanks.
In your tub or shower…did the soap scums got cleaned?? 😉
This is the first time in my life that I have been excited about a cleaning project!!! My kitchen is screaming for help. I will report back my results. Thank you for your awesome content.
It's been three weeks, how did it go?
Nema Roman, what's your results
I guess it was a....NO
Results??
If you use shaving cream to remove stains from your carpet you should rinse it to prevent leaving behind the “soap” shaving cream is made of. If you don’t rinse those areas you cleaned it will be more susceptible to grabbing onto dirt and grime. It will also discolor your carpet over time.
it does such a wonderful job cleaning all of these already clean things and surfaces golly wow
Not all heroes wear capes 💕
Thanks for the great tips ☺️
Whipe your inner and outer windshield with it and it is an excellent anti fog coating
nice I did not know that! I wonder if it's safe for window tint?
Does it leave a haze?
Works on shower mirrors too.
@@dianafertig2188
I heard it did
Great idea!!!!!
I came to this channel for the tips, I stayed for the comments 😀
But definitely with some of the things in the videos, I will give it a whirl.
I'M GONNA DO THIS. CLEANING THE TUB IS DIFFICULT FOR ME AND I CAN DO THIS. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO. GOD BLESS AND STAY SAFE.
I am still waiting for the rug to dry but I used this hack to FINALLY tackle a few stains on my living room rug. Carpet cleaner is not something I keep around the house! Shaving cream is readily available in my home so you can imagine my excitement when watching your video. Will update again later but I soooo appreciate the time you took in schooling us on shaving cream uses as a cleaning agent. Again, thank you.
Wonderful!
I have summarized the video for people with limited time: You can clean anything with Shaving Foam.
🙏
Nope!
Lol
Don't forget the microfiber towel 🤨
You done good,Allen. Thanks.
Just tried it ..works so well my bathroom is shining & smelling fresh.....
I used it (before I found your video) to clean up dried interior paint off of our ceramic floors, and plaster off my flat screen TV.
Just swinging back by to say THANK YOU!🤗 These hacks are a game changer. I just finished my bathroom in record time.
Wonderful!
Do not use shaving cream on your carpet. It’s essentially a soap, and because it’s not being rinsed off, you’re leaving a nice soapy buildup that will be a magnet for dirt and grime.
Plus, the alcohol could leave your carpet discolored where the shaving cream was used.
Yeah..i cringed at this one and the mattress 😬...but the rest were decent
THANKS!
@@nancyposey9466 To my understanding there is no alcohol in shaving creams. Check it out online yourself. Shaving cream is used on the skin. I would not put anything with alcohol on my skin that would do damage.
Well actually... I was tryna SEE a spot when she cleaning the carpet but there was no spot 🤔!!!
Phenomenal video. I will use shaving cream to clean all these different areas in my house. Thank you for the tips.
I'm going to Dollar Tree as soon as they open (there's 4 locations that are within 15 minutes of me)nd clean them out of shaving cream!! I'm so excited to try the bathtub hack!
I do the same thing but I use Dawn dish soap. It works great!
Me too
Me too, K. I bought a broom just bc it was beautiful (really!) and never used it. So it should do nicely w the SC.
It's AMAZING! Shaving cream does the same thing any other cleaner does!
Wow this is unbelievable I would have never thought about shaving cream THANK YOU 😊
You're so welcome!
I love these shaving cream hacks! I use to get in trouble for always playing with the yummy smelling shaving cream as a child. Bonus cause now I can play and clean at the same time.
Funny girl!😇😅
Cute cute
Used to, not use to.
I was taking classes to be a licensed childcare we were made to play with shaving cream we all had a blast and she was just trying to show us how fun it was for the kids hahaha
thanks for the tips, sharing this out
Glad it was helpful!
This was a great video and I will start cleaning with shaving cream thank you and God bless
I knew there were good uses for shaving cream but these went above and beyond. Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
OMG! I just used it on my 30 yr old tub faucets! I can not believe how shiny it is! Thank you thank you!
Love the broom hack, my mom taugh me that 40 years ago. Let me tell you it is a life changer as you are aging.
Your broom hack will save my back. Thank you. I use Scrubing Bubbles.
At Walmart they sell scrub pad brush with a telescoping wand that will let you stand as you clean. Costs less than a broom too.
@@roadtripboy They sell brooms at the Dollar Tree as well.
A mop works better...js
I've had separate mops for the floors, walls and bathtubs for YEARS!!! It's so much easier.
@@2dayhair813 The point is a broom is not suited for scrubbing. There are better choices that will actually work.
@@roadtripboy I use a broom as my mother did and I prefer it to the wands. My response to you was in regards to the wands costing less than a broom; a broom is cheaper if it’s from the Dollar Tree.
Dawn dish soap plus baking soda mixed into lumps spread with broom, or deck brush, then pour white vinegar all around, finally scrub with broom or other scrubbing tool. Shave cream for polishing mirrors and glass. Good stuff. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!!
I've been cleaning people's houses for 30 years, and I've never heard about shaving cream! Off to try it right now!😁
Please try and find a safe one. Most are TOXIC ☠️
@@k8lynmae Thanks for the tip!
I absolutely love you! I don't even use shaving cream, but my friend left some over. My little ones left stains on the rugs at our last home, I've been scrubbing for hours. Im going to try shaving cream on everything. Love your hacks, fantastic!
I love you ❤️❤️❤️
I'm loving the love! 😂❤
Miss, these are the best tips I've ever seen. Thanks so much. Have a great day
Thanks 4 sharing
we hv tried 2 figure out how 2 remove stains out of the carpet. We're GOING 2 try & see how it turns out.
On my way to Dollar Tree now for a broom and a can of shaving cream.Tfs.
I luv the brooms from the dollar store. They are lightweight and work well. We have one for inside and one for outside the house. Soon I'll get one for the tub and the shower in the 2nd bathroom.
Shaving cream hmmm? What a clever idea. And simple. And delicious smelling. What a great tip. Thank you. 🌹❤️
Wow! I have to try these! I do have to tell you a funny story though . We were living in Bolivia. Someone I knew had gone to a conference. He was staying in the same cabin with a Bolivian. The Bolivian had never seen shaving cream before. He had said he had forgotten his shampoo. He asked if he could borrow this mans. The man said yes. The Bolivian man kept saying how horrible the shampoo was. It was actually shaving cream!
I work in a group home and have struggled for 6 years to get the wheelchairs smelling better (we have a couple of incontinent folks that have urinated in their chairs). I’m going smear some Barbisol on and see if that helps any. Thanks!
Good idea shaving cream has multiple uses disinfect and clean at the same time thanks for sharing 👍
You inspired me to get my broom and shaving crepe. Now that I my husband’s shaving up….I have to buy some more. Thank you
OMG these shaving foam hacks are unreal who would have thought thanks for sharing 👌👌👌
Andrea, thank you for sharing this information with me. I will try it soon. May God bless you and your family.
Hi Andrea. I tried shaving cream in my tubs and it is a happy thumbs up! I have a question for you: have you used shaving cream on window sills and window blinds? (one of my least favorite to clean are the blinds). I haven't tried it on the window etcs yet...just thought i would ask first.
I'm so happy with the shaving cream that --no kidding--I bought $tree shaving cream for stocking gifts!!
Venetian blinds?
I'm going try it especially on mattress.
Awesome cleaning hacks! Who knew shaving cream was so versatile?! And an impromptu song, to boot. 🙂
Loved this. ♡
I've been using shaving cream for years for cleaning lots of things! First thing I thought of using SC for, was when my daughter brought me her stuffed animal she had slept w every night from 2 years old till 22 years old. It was of the most value to her and very worn, and mended over the years many times. Too fragile and risky for most ways I knew to clean it... Shaving cream! I put some on my cloth, rubbed it into the back, least visible spot... Next I went over it, gently, w a water dampened cloth using little circle movements. The dirt was on the rinsing cloth!
Next shoes, tools, walls. Patio furniture, pool toys! I've never thought of the plumbing fixtures! Thanks for new cleaning ideas! I just love SC!
THANK YOU!!! I have vertigo. I can not clean my tub without getting dizzy. I usually have to pay someone to do it..now I know how to do it and with what product. God 🙏 this video was actually a game changer!!!
I use the swifter mop on the walls of the tub/shower
Fellow Vertigo..OMG... I hate that feeling I get so bad..sick to my stomach too.
It really sets in when I lay down to go to bed and turn my head..forget it...
I feel your pain. 🙄
Look up the Epley maneuver for your vertigo 😊
@@TrudyPatootie Epely maneuver will change your life
@@bja2you Thank you Betty. I have done that so many times.
If I tell you that I fainted more than once doing it would you believe it? Horrible experience for me.
Just left me deathly sick. Well deathly is an exaggeration. But I was down for the count. But thank you. Very nice of you to suggest.
I needed this so badly right now! Thank you for your time and effort to produce this informative video for us. ❤️
It's much easier to vacuum your air duct vents. It works amazing and I'm sure you will like doing it better then scrubbing them. You vacuum the base boards anyways so just get the vent while you are doing the base boards.
Not all are that easy so I will be trying this one for I’ve already tried to vacuum the vent where the forever filter goes pull out once a Mth spray it with hose on super high like a power washer and walaaa no more $$$ spent on those throw aways. If your on a tight budget in a new house and don’t have a fresh coat of paint I can definitely see this working-Thanks Andre
In a damp humid, uky climate, well vac doesn't hack it
Sometimes u move somewhere and they aren't clean to start with or are cleaning someone else's space.
Can't vacuum off oils and grime
Better than, not better then.
Came across this channel today & so thankful I did. Was wondering what zi can do with shaving cream. Let Me share this channel with family & friend. Thank Yoh for channel creation. 👍
Must say your Bathtub already looks clean before actually cleaning it! 👍 those micro clothes are amazing !
Exactly I'm like come on
The microfibre for glass & ceramics means you only need at add water, nothing else 🤷♀️
The microfiber cloth are great. I buy them in a pack of 36. I use them for my car as well house cleaning. Then throw them in washer. They wash great.
@@alissagonzales735 where is a good place to buy them?
I use shaving cream to clean and shine up. I love this!
Wow what shaving cream can really do. Ty for sharing. Good job 👍
she is very positive person let her shine/ clean
Shaving cream to expensive just soap.
Have not bought it in years just use soap to shave.
you can also use the broom to clean hard to reach places like the corners of the walls of your home and just brush the walls with the broom then wipe them down by putting a wet towel over the broom then wiping the walls down with the broom thank me later
Without thanks to you, I've been doing something similar for the majority of my life, and I'm nearly 70. It's not a new idea at all to clean walls in such a manner 🙄.
I can’t wait try all this tomorrow! I do remember when people sprayed our car with shaving cream to write out wedding wishes to us, it took the paint off!
My biggest challenges in cleaning are the glass shower surround (we have VERY hard water and nothing I’ve tried so far has worked) and the inside of the oven door. Will shaving cream work on either of these?
Vinegar works great on hard water stains.
And once it is clean, put rain clear on it like what you put on your windshield! It will totally repel water! 💦
@@charlenegriffis5900 Thanks for that suggestion!
Amazing hacks, I would definitely try them all. Thanks for sharing. 😊
You are so welcome!
you could vaccume the air conditions grill and the dust wont mess everything up. then proceed with cleaning
I saw this and tried it DAMM it is awesome i used in my kitchen eveything cleans and has a nice shine THANKYO Andrea
Wonderful!
I’ve never heard of using shaving cream so now I want to go buy some lol
Loved this, I try the broom cleaning on tub, I will get dissolving shaving cream, today !
I laughed really hard, when I saw you clean the bathtub. NO offense to you and your video, as it's appreciated. But your tub was already immaculate!
yes it was just a demonstration, but it's a clever idea for people who cannot bend down, and something they may not have thought of
Demonstrations for cleaning should be done on dirty things not already clean.
@@JensUniqueNibblesandMore Makes sense to me!
Sez who?
It was immaculate from the previous use of the shaving cream
Fell into my suggestions.... I'm sticking around for the tips AND the commentary during your videos.
Love it thank you!
I did use/like Dollar Tree broom idea!,saves the back💪😁
Wow - Thank You - I never knew
How about women’s shaving cream? I like the smell of those better! ☺️
Will it clean as well as the men’s?
Just so it has alcohol in it.
Nope, has to be men’s shaving cream ONLY. Sorry.
@@jrcruise8654 why?
They're the same. Usually the women's is more expensive. On the rare occasion that the women's is cheaper, I buy that to shave my beard.
Hey Andrea .I stumbled onto your channel by mistake and glad I did...you have saved me with this tip
Quick ❓ can I clean my cook top stove the same way?
I use a few drops of dish soap but will try shaving cream.
