Clean Your Bathroom in 5 Minutes

Do you spend hours trying to catch up on cleaning your bathroom? Don’t bother! Truth is that just five minutes a day can save you time in the long run.

Using the five minute rule really does work. Here's how:

Minute One. Dedicate this time to clear off surfaces. Put away the flat iron and magazines. Stow away your makeup and toss that old towel into the laundry bin. Pick dirty clothes off the floor too!

Minute Two. It’s all about surface cleaning. Apply some toilet bowl cleaner and let it sit until the last few seconds. Wipe any toothpaste, hair, and dust off counter tops. Don’t forget the sink and toilet tank as well. Circle your toilet brush around in the final seconds and you’re good to go.

Minute Three. Straighten things up. Refold towels, make sure you have enough toilet paper, and close your shower curtain so it can air out. If you finish that quickly, straighten up those lotion and shampoo bottles on your counter tops and in the shower.

Minute Four. Almost done! It’s time to check your mirrors for splashes of toothpaste. Wipe it down with your favorite glass cleaner to brighten up the space. If your mirror is already spotless, take this minute to add some shine to your sink and bath fixtures. Those final touches really make a difference!

Minute Five. Do your kids make your bathroom extra messy? Don’t panic - you have a whole 60 seconds to tidy up anything out of sorts, take a step back, and access all the work you did!

There you have it! Five quick minutes to keep your bathroom looking fresh. For maximum cleanliness, use this system every day (if possible). Skipping a few days could add time to a fairly quick routine, so make an effort to give yourself a little extra time either morning or night. Final advice? Don’t let these 5 minutes intimidate you!
