Here's How I Easily Make My Home Scouring Cream.
Why buy scouring cream when you can make it at home?
It's much cheaper and what's more, it's natural.
And when it comes to efficiency, a homemade scouring cream has nothing to envy to commercial ones.
Depending on how I use it, I use 4 different recipes.
Don't worry, these recipes are super easy and quick to make.
If I can do them, so can you! Look :
Recipe n ° 1
Ingredients
- baking soda
- liquid black soap
- jar with a lid
How to do
In the jar, put ¼ cup of baking soda. Add 1 tablespoon of black soap.
If you don't have black soap, you can replace it with dish soap.
Mix the 2 products to obtain a fluid dough.
This recipe is perfect to clean the enamel of the bath, the sink and the washbasin.
Recipe n ° 2
Ingredients
- Meudon white
- liquid black soap
- jar with a lid
How to do
Fill an empty jar 2/3 full with Blanc de Meudon. Put 1/3 of black soap.
Mix to obtain a creamy paste. Add a little white Meudon if it is too liquid or black soap if it is too thick.
This homemade scouring cream is awesome on the traces of limestone.
On the other hand, I do not advise you to use it on the windows of the shower, because the white traces left by the white of Meudon are difficult to remove.
