The Pink Stuff All-Purpose Cleaning Paste ($10.99 at Amazon)
Consider the TikTok-famous cleaning paste in a bubble-pink hue for all the greasy or soapy surfaces. Scoop a tiny amount with a sponge or a cleaning cloth, gently rub on the surface — and the grease will melt away. One of the most fascinating types of TikTok content with this Amazon bestseller is kitchen stove transformations. Even the greasiest stoves could be cleaned into sparkly brand-new-looking ones with the help of The Pink Stuff. Same for stainless steel kitchen sinks: Just a tiny amount of this pink paste will transform a mildewy, soap-stained sink into a sparkling clean one.
🧽 How it works: The main ingredients in this product are baking soda and highly concentrated soap, which means it could be abrasive on easy-to-scratch surfaces. When it comes to greasy surfaces, though, it’s unbeatable!
🧼 Best use: Stoves, bathtubs, stainless-steel sinks, hard-water stains on any surface, pots, etc.
🧹 How to save even more: To prolong this product’s life, use a spoon, or a spoolie, to get the paste out of a container.
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser ($3.69 for a set of two at Target)
True story: When I first tried the Magic Eraser, I stayed up until midnight cleaning all the little scratches and stains in my apartments that I could find. This cleaning tool is not your typical sponge but a melamine foam that effortlessly cleanses difficult stains and discolorations. On TikTok, this truly magic sponge is often used to fix all the little scruffs all over the house and give a second life to your sneakers.
🧽 How it works: Slightly wet the sponge to activate it, and start scrubbing on the surface you want to clean. No need to use any additional cleaning products!
🧼 Best use: Cleaning up marks on floors and walls; removing adhesive residue from price stickers and nail polish stains. It’s also amazing for cleaning your white sneakers. For larger surfaces, consider The Pink Stuff’s Miracle Cleaner Spray.
🧹 How to save even more: Cut your Magic Eraser into smaller pieces for smaller cleaning projects. Once you wet the entire sponge, it’s never the same. By using smaller portions of the sponge, you can preserve the rest of it for more cleaning sessions.
Wright’s Copper and Brass Polish and Cleaner Cream ($7.99 at Amazon)
If you have a brass faucet or copper pots in your house, this polishing paste will change your life. This one is the most efficient, anti-tarnish products that I’ve seen on TikTok. I use it religiously on my non-lacquered brass faucets; the patina melts away with the help of this cleaning paste. Same for copper dishes and even silver jewelry: Rub a tiny amount of the cream on the treated item, rinse it with water — and it shines like new.
🧽 How it works: Use protecting gloves with this product! Rinse the treated area with water, then apply the paste — scrub if needed. Dry with a paper towel and buff with a fabric cloth.
🧼 Best use: Brass, copper, and silver.
🧹 Works even better with: After you cleaned and buffed the treated area, spritz some Gel-Gloss Kitchen & Bath Plish & Protector ($13.17 on Amazon) on top of it. The product has a non-appealing chemical scent, but it keeps your brass stain-free, for longer.
Liquid Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser ($7.66 on Amazon)
For all your porcelain surfaces, consider the Bar Keepers Friend soft cleanser. Bathtubs, porcelain sinks, and showers effortlessly transform into shiny ones with the help of this gentle, non-abrasive cleaning product. It’s also perfect for cleaning the grease out of your oven and stove, and the inside of your dishwasher.
🧽 How to use: Spread across the surface with a damp sponge, scrub deeper stains, and rinse within one minute of application.
🧼 Best for: Bathrooms! Think tubs, sinks, and toilets. Also suitable for cleaning tiles, kitchen countertops (excluding the ones made out of stone), and any other greasy surface.
🧹 Works better with: If the surface needs some gentle scrubbing, use the product with another TikTok-famous cleansing product, Scrub Daddy ($4.59 at Target).
Folex Instant Carpet Spot Remover ($19.99 on Amazon)
Carpet stains are the worst! Especially if we are talking about synthetic rugs that seem to absorb the stains in seconds. But with the help of this TikTok-famous cleaning spray for carpets, you can save even rugs with red wine stains. The product works similarly to the Spray & Wash or Shout Landry Stain Remover. You spritz the product onto the stain, use an old toothbrush to rub the surface, and remove carpet stains!
🧽 How it works: Spray on the stain until the surface around the spot is wet (not just damp), scrub with a cloth or a brush, and rinse with water.
🧼 Best use: Rugs and carpets of any fabric that won’t leave the marks from getting wet.
🧹 Works even better with: For best results, consider investing in the Bissell SpotClean ProHeat ($133.89 on Amazon) carpet cleaning device: It’s ideal for getting rid of more prominent stains on your carpets and upholstery.
