You can find a microwave in just about every kitchen these days, and a lot of those microwaves need a good cleaning! Because microwaves are used so often, they get dirty really fast. At my house, we use our microwave at least twice a day. That’s 14 times a...

Some of you may know just how deeply I love steam cleaners, and being a ‘cleaning expert’ certainly has its privileges, because over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to try out several of them. Then, not too long ago, the friendly folks over at LadyBugSteamCleaners.com emailed me...

A few weeks back we made a video all about washing dishes using your hands. Following this, I received 73,240 requests for a video on washing dishes using your dishwasher, and because we here at Clean My Space do absolutely everything that we are told, here is a video all...

Over the years I've collected tons of amazing cleaning tips and tricks, but some are too small to make a video about. You know, a video takes time to create and edit, and these tips while worth it, would take up too much of our precious time. So today, we've...

The holiday season is underway and to help you navigate through all the chaos, we’ve come together with a few YouTube friends to bring you this playlist of hassle-free holiday tips. The coolest part is that we've teamed with the makers of Tylenol and together we are celebrating all the...

There's a simple reason why dish soap is a true workhorse in the cleaning world: because a good rule of thumb is to always start every cleaning job with the gentlest, safest, most basic product available to do the job—and that product is almost always dish soap. Dish soap has...

Here in North America, we're preparing ourselves for one of the biggest parties of the year - Super Bowl Sunday - and while I'm not much of a football fan, I do appreciate a good party now and then. So, today, I'm going to show you how to quickly and...

It's crucial to check your cosmetics and toiletries for signs of degradation. While nothing too harmful can come from using expired products, some may lose efficacy, some may cause minor irritations and some will become downright unappealing and not look, smell or act as initially intended. For that reason, taking...

Costume jewelry, so pretty and usually cheaper than the real thing. I love it! What I don’t love is when it turns funky colors or starts feeling gritty, kind of like sand. Let’s back up a bit. Costume jewelry can be gold or silver plated (a thin layer of the...

I guess this would be my equivalent to a 'what's in my bag' video for a makeup guru.  Except I deal with cleaning products, and hardly wear a lick of makeup when cleaning.  Yes, when I do videos I'm in makeup, but that's because our cameras are beyond an acceptable...

The summer brings about hot weather, and hot weather brings about all kinds of adorable open toe shoes, which brings about a need to keep one's toes looking presentable because no one wants to see nasty, unkempt toes. In order to keep our toes in tip top shape, we participate in...
