Turn dish washing into a beauty treatment

The modern woman never has enough time to take care of herself. But if with the face we still find time for masks and makeup, then the hands are often left without proper attention. And washing dishes with chemicals in hot water spoils the skin in the same way as frost or the scorching sun.

Make the most of your time in the kitchen. There are special hand masks on sale, but, in principle, any cream will do. Just apply it and put plastic gloves on top.

According to the rules of the cosmetic procedure, there is also a massage over the mask, but why is your fussing in the sink not a massage?

Soak the dishes in the sink for a couple of minutes

You will be surprised, but this simple trick will cut the washing procedure by almost half. It is clear that it is imperative to shake off the remnants of food in the trash can. Then plug the sink and draw in warm water with a drop of detergent.

If the contamination is small, after soaking it will be enough to simply place the dishes under the running water for rinsing.

Use a logical sequence

If you want to conserve water, first wash whatever is cleaner in soapy water - glasses and mugs, wicks and spoons. Then - plates and at the very end - pots and pans, because they have the most fat.

Buy handy brushes and sponges

Don't skimp on washcloths. The difference will be only a couple of rubles, but now there are so many special washcloths that it is a pleasure to work with.

For example, if you prefer regular sponges, choose these hexagonal sponges with an abrasive layer that does not clog instantly, as on ordinary sponges.PHOTO: ozon.ru

Also, don't regret changing your washcloth at least every week. Then it will be pleasant to take them in hand.

Use good quality dishwashing detergents

“Why, if you can save money and buy cheaper?” - you ask. There are reasons for this. Cheap products have a too harsh fragrance, and it takes much longer to wash them off, and this is no longer a savings. If you have saved a few rubles on such an acquisition, water costs will cover everything.

Part with the trash

Save the chipped plates and mugs for the museum, and buy yourself decent, pretty, and easy-to-clean dishes for every day. Now all this is inexpensive.

The same goes for other cookware: choose stainless steel pots and non-stick pans. And then you will forget what it is like to scrub a pot or frying pan with a hard washcloth until you completely lose your manicure.

And one more tip: if you wipe the dishes after washing (not everyone does this), use disposable nonwoven towels - they are sold in rolls.
