Some housewives wipe the reflective surface with a slice of cucumber.

This procedure may seem strange and pointless to many. In fact, it does have an effect. And a very necessary one.

However, it is precisely those mirrors that are installed in the bathroom that should be subjected to the “cucumber” treatment.

There is no need to lubricate mirror surfaces located in the hallway and bedroom with cucumber.

The meaning of the procedure

You need to take a cucumber, cut it and “go” with the cut side on the mirror.

Cucumber juice forms a film that prevents the surface from fogging up.

But many people have probably encountered such a problem: a mirror became covered in sweat while a person was taking a bath.

Thanks to cucumber, this problem will no longer make itself known.

There is another interesting effect: after wiping the mirror with cucumber, a pleasant smell will appear in the bathroom.

Important point: it makes sense to carry out the procedure right before taking a bath or shower.
