White shoes are undoubtedly very attractive – but only if they are clean.

Fortunately, removing stains is not as difficult as it may seem at first glance.

We'll tell you how to make a cleaning product at home using just one ingredient.

Chances are you already have it in your fridge. But even if you don't have it there, no problem. You'll definitely find it at your local supermarket. Intrigued? It's just a regular lemon.

It is its juice that helps to remove unsightly stains that cover the surface of white shoes.

So, now that you have the lemon in your hands, squeeze out a small amount of juice. Just two tablespoons of lemon juice is enough.

This liquid must be mixed with a glass of water (necessarily warm).

That's it, actually - apply the resulting cleaning solution to the dirty areas and rub them with a brush. The main thing is to act carefully.

Once all the dirt has come off, wipe the shoes or boots with a dry cloth.

It is important not to overuse lemon juice.

If you use this method of cleaning white shoes too often, it is possible that yellow stains will appear on them over time.

Before you use this product for the first time, test it on an inconspicuous area and change it no more than 1-2 times a month.
