Sometimes we forget to buy things we need, and it becomes quite hard to do our basic cleaning routine.
If you suddenly noticed that you forgot to buy dishwashing liquid, but you have to wash the dishes, then you still can do it!
Here are a few tips on what you can do.
Use regular soap
If you have regular bar soap or hand soap, you can use it as a substitute for dishwashing liquid.
Wet your sponge or dishcloth, rub it against the soap to create a lather, and then wash your dishes as you normally would.
Baking soda
Baking soda can be effective at cutting through grease and removing food residues.
Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda onto a wet sponge or dishcloth, and use it to scrub your dishes. Rinse thoroughly with water afterward.
Salt
Salt can act as a mild abrasive and help remove stuck-on food particles.
Sprinkle some salt onto a wet sponge or dishcloth, and gently scrub your dishes. Rinse well to remove any salt residue.
Vinegar
Vinegar can help break down grease and remove odors. Mix equal parts of vinegar and water in a container, and use this solution to soak your dishes.
After soaking for a few minutes, scrub the dishes with a sponge or dishcloth and rinse well.
Lemon juice
Lemon juice has natural antibacterial properties and can help cut through grease.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice onto a wet sponge or dishcloth, and use it to clean your dishes. Rinse thoroughly afterward.
