Tired of buying dishwasher powder?
Yes, it's expensive and full of chemicals!
How about making your own homemade dishwasher powder?
Don't worry, it's super easy and effective! And it only takes a few seconds to do it yourself.
I've been using this secret recipe given to me by my grandmother for years. It is 100% natural and economical.
And above all my dishes are degreased and sparkling clean ! Watch:
- 2 tablespoons of soda crystals
- 2 tablespoons of Marseille soap shavings
- 2 tablespoons of citric acid
- 1 tablespoon of sodium percarbonate
- Mint essential oil (optional)
- 1 closed jar
1. Pour all the ingredients into the jar.
2. Mix it all up.
3. Pour a tablespoon into the dishwasher compartment.
4. Add 2 or 3 drops of mint essential oil (optional).
And there you have it, you have made your homemade dishwasher powder :-)
Simple, fast and efficient, right?
Thanks to your homemade powder, your dishes are shiny and sparkling clean!
Even better than with an Aldi, Auchan, Apta, Arbre Vert, H20, Briochin, Carrefour or Biocoop powder... And above all for much less!
Not only do you save money, but this DIY recipe is also zero waste.
Remember to close the container in which you put your powder.
Why ? Because if you leave it in the open air, there will be an emulsion and you will not be able to use it anymore.
No need to do a lot of dishwasher powder at once, as it tends to harden.
It is better to do it gradually. As you've seen, it's super quick and easy to do!
- Are your dishes very dirty? Add a tablespoon of baking soda to dissolve dirt and grease. Bicarbonate loosens, cleans and sanitizes. It is also a very effective degreaser.
- For shiny glasses without white marks, pour white vinegar into the rinse aid compartment.
Marseille soap has been a recognized cleaner and degreaser for generations.
Citric acid is a powerful anti-limestone and antioxidant.
Soda crystals degrease and eliminate bad odors.
Percarbonate is an excellent stain remover:it dissolves stains without difficulty.
And all of these natural ingredients are totally biodegradable. As a result, your homemade powder is effective and ecological.
