Orange Peel Cleaner with Vinegar
If you’re looking for a gentle but powerful natural cleaner for your bathroom and kitchen, this orange peel cleaner with vinegar is a game-changer. It’s zero-waste, smells amazing, and can be made from the peels you’d usually throw away!
Limonene in the peels naturally dissolves grease and soap scum.
Acetic acid in vinegar breaks down mineral buildup.
Together, they create a non-toxic, eco-friendly, and cost-effective cleaner that’s safe for most surfaces (except stone).
