Clean kitchen cabinets with washing up liquid

If your kitchen cabinets are covered in fingerprints and grease, a simple bottle of washing up liquid is all you need, according to a cleaning specialist on social media. TikToker @neals_k shared the tip, which uses an item most people already have in their cupboard.

She outlined five straightforward tips, with washing up liquid being the standout suggestion. The method involves filling a bowl with warm water, adding a few drops of washing up liquid, and using two microfibre cloths—one for cleaning and one for drying.

Submerge one cloth in the bowl, wring it out until damp, and start wiping from the top of the cabinets using circular motions to remove grease and fingerprints. Work downwards and repeat across all cupboards. This technique can also be applied to drawers depending on the surface finish.

After cleaning, use the second microfibre cloth to dry the surfaces, leaving them gleaming. @neals_k noted: "I find that this method doesn't give me the dreaded swirl."

Washing up liquid is available for as little as 64p at Asda, making it a budget-friendly solution for those looking to cut costs.
