The best part is, you can achieve this little haven in your house without using harsh chemicals or toxic cleaning products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleaning your bathroom in an eco-conscious way is much easier than you might think. This guide will walk you through our top tips describing how to clean a bathroom in a way that\u2019s good for you and the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>What Is Eco-Conscious Bathroom Cleaning?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we get into the specifics of scrubbing your bathroom, let\u2019s talk a little bit about what eco-conscious means in terms of bathroom cleaning products.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we clean, the products we use can come in contact with our skin and the air we breathe, which means it\u2019s important to avoid ingredients that may harm our health. To keep our cleaning eco-conscious, it\u2019s equally important to ensure that the products we send down the drain won\u2019t harm our planet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the Environmental Working Group, there are clues you can look for when you shop for cleaning products, such as:<sup>1<\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organic or plant-based ingredients<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No harmful, harsh chemicals<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fragrance-free or naturally fragranced products<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recyclable or biodegradable packaging<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">our formula is 100% vegan cleaning solutions<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another clue to look for is the Safer Choice logo.<sup>2<\/sup><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This symbol was designed by the U.S. EPA to help people identify products without harmful ingredients like bleach, ammonia, and dyes.

Start with the areas that encounter the most buildup\u2014namely, your sink and shower.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beginning with these areas is always a wise step, as you may need to let products sit on these surfaces for a little while before wiping them off. In the meantime, you can start shining the other parts of your bathroom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The key areas you\u2019ll want to target include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Soak the shower walls and tub<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Begin by coating your shower walls and your tub with a plant-powered ba<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">throom cleaner like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/household-cleaners\/bathroom-cleaner-tea-tree\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ECOS Bathroom Cleaner<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If your shower features any buildup of soap scum or other products, let this product sit for a few minutes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Spritz your sink<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 You can use the same cleaner to remove any toothpaste and soap residue from your bathroom sink. Spray on your cleaning product and let it sit to melt away tough spots.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Don\u2019t neglect your shower curtain liners or shower door<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Your shower curtain liners need regular attention, too. A weekly spray with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/household-cleaners\/bathroom-cleaner-tea-tree\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ECOS Bathroom Cleaner<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and wipe-down can help keep soap scum, mold, and mildew at bay. If you don\u2019t have a shower curtain but instead a shower door, try <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/household-cleaners\/window-cleaner-vinegar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ECOS Window Cleaner &#8211; Vinegar<\/a> for a streak-free clean.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve let your cleaner sink in, use a reusable cleaning cloth, like a microfiber cloth, to wipe it away. Sticking with fabric towels instead of paper options can help you to minimize waste with each cleaning.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>An Extra Tip for Effortless Daily Shower Cleaning<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How often should you clean your bathroom shower? You can double the power of your water usage to maintain your shower\u2019s cleanliness daily. All it takes is <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/household-cleaners\/bathroom-cleaner-tea-tree\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plant-powered b<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">athroom cleaner<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that doesn\u2019t need to be rinsed away after use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simply mist the cleaner onto the wet shower tiles and fixtures after you\u2019ve finished showering. Then, you can let it sit until the next time the shower runs. This step allows you and your shower to become sparkling clean at the same time. By skipping the additional rinse, you can also lower your water usage and save resources.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tip #2: Give Your Toilet the TLC it Needs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s face it\u2014many of the toilet cleaning products out there are full of harsh chemicals that you don\u2019t want to touch or send down the drain. Luckily, you can use safer cleaners without sacrificing quality and safety.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/live-cleaner\/how-to-clean-a-toilet-an-eco-conscious-guide\/\">how to clean a toilet<\/a>, try using:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/household-cleaners\/toilet-cleaner-cedar\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ECOS Toilet Bowl Cleaner<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to clean the bowl, lift stains, and fight odors<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have your earth-friendly supplies, it\u2019s time to start scrubbing. There are three key areas of the toilet to make sure you target:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Toilet bowl <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 Be sure to clean the parts you can <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cannot see thoroughly. This means making sure you spray and scrub under the rim of the bowl where germs and bacteria like to congregate.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Seat<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 The toilet seat comes into direct contact with your skin when you sit on the toilet, so don\u2019t forget to give it a good scrub.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Lid<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Even the lid of your toilet can collect bacteria from the water spray when you flush. Make sure to wipe it down with your safer disinfectant.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Tip #3: Make Your Mirrors and Glass Sparkle<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img data-opt-id=1479507169  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-22159\" src=\"https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:640\/h:427\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:640\/h:427\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062-scaled.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:1024\/h:683\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062-scaled.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:768\/h:512\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062-scaled.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:1536\/h:1024\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062-scaled.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:1620\/h:1080\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/mlcvmo0gntjk.i.optimole.com\/cb:ICH-.67306\/w:18\/h:12\/q:90\/f:best\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GettyImages-1084656062-scaled.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our bathroom mirrors do an excellent job of reflecting our amazing hair days and the glowing results of our skincare routines, but they also take a beating. Water, toothpaste, and even hairspray can mar their shiny surfaces over time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have the correct tools for the job, cleaning your mirror and<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">other glass surfaces in an eco-conscious way can be pretty simple.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two things to keep in mind when cleaning glass surfaces:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Vinegar is your best friend<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Nothing gives glass its shine back quite like vinegar. There\u2019s a reason your grandmother kept old <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">newspapers and a spray bottle of vinegar around for window cleaning. Look for a plant-powered glass clean<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">er that uses vinegar instead of toxic ammonia, like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecos.com\/household-cleaners\/window-cleaner-vinegar\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ECOS Window Cleaner.<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><b>Avoid lint<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Don\u2019t use regular paper towels or cloths that leave behind little bits of lint. This will keep you from getting that nice, clean mirror you want. Instead, opt for a reusable lint-free cloth that also avoids paper towel waste.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With these strategies and the right supplies, making your glass surfaces shine is as easy as a spray and a wipe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tip #4: Freshen Up Your Floor<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our bathroom floors see everything\u2014first our dirty feet and dirty clothes, then our clean feet and soapy water from the shower.
