Cleaning

Cleaning, organising and washing isn’t everyone’s idea of fun. Our goal is to share simple tips and hacks that save you time and give you better results.

At Style Curator, we believe a stylish home starts with a clean base. When your home feels fresh and cared for, styling becomes so much easier.

In this section, you’ll find tips and tricks for every room. From the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen to your home office and beyond, our articles help you clean smarter, not harder.

Discover effective natural cleaning recipes, including DIY sprays, stain removal hacks and effective scrubs you can make yourself. You can also download free printables to help you stay on track with your weekly and seasonal schedules.

Our most popular articles include trending TikTok-style cleaning hacks. Think laundry tips using white vinegar for whiter clothes, stainless steel sink glow-ups and easy drain-clearing hacks.

We also share ideas on low tax cleaning, such as how to swap out chemicals for natural ingredients and essential oils. Learn how to make dishwasher cleaner, multipurpose kitchen sprays, DIY washing powder and more using your favourite oils.

If you’re looking for shower cleaning tips, we have you covered there too. One of our most-loved guides shows you how to clean your shower and glass screen using natural products like bi-carb soda, dish soap and eucalyptus oil.

You’ll also find honest product reviews on vacuums, steam mops, washing machines and other tools to help you decide what’s worth the investment.
