You’re not cleaning your bathroom properly: Stylist reveals the one area people always forget about
You’re not cleaning your bathroom properly: the stylist reveals the area that people always forget to scrub, and it could lead to serious health problems.
- Brisbane mom and stylist Liz Amaya listed the one place people forget to clean
- Shower seals need to be removed and cleaned frequently to prevent mold buildup.
A mom has revealed the one place most people forget to clean is their bathrooms.
Stylist Elizabeth Amaya, from Brisbane, said people rarely take their shower seals off and clean inside.
The mother-of-four urged people to focus on the bottom of their shower doors the next time they’re deep-cleaning their bathroom.
If your shower never shines no matter how much you scrub, it’s probably due to limescale grime, soap scum and mold buildup on the bottom of the door.
The shower seals should be removed and cleaned as often as you clean the rest of the room.

One mom of four urged people to focus on the bottom of their shower doors the next time they’re deep-cleaning their bathroom.
When was the last time you cleaned the shower seal? asked the mother in a video where he demonstrated how to do it.
Elizabeth normally uses vinegar on her stamp and lets it soak for 20 minutes before rinsing it off.
You can remove the seal by gently pressing it down, but it will take some effort if this is your first time removing it.
Keep a few paper towels handy, and be careful with your skin and clothing if you’re worried about mold growing on it.
Once you’ve removed the seal, you can spray it with vinegar and water or your preferred cleaner.
Be sure to use a suitable mildew remover or bleach if the stamp is very dirty.
Let the cleaner soak into the seal while you focus on cleaning the bottom of the door.
Spray some glass cleaner on the door and scrub away any water marks and grime with a sponge.
If the seal is still dirty after rinsing off the cleaning solution, you can use an old toothbrush to get into the various nooks and crannies.
Make sure the strip is completely dry before reattaching to prevent mold from forming.

Many thanked Elizabeth for reminding them to clean the shower seals.
‘I need to do this! Mine becomes absolutely disgusting.
‘Oh God, I’ve never done this. I’m afraid to look.
‘Wait, does that come out? I’m about to go disassemble my shower.
‘Makes a big difference, I need to clean mine.’
“Seal definitely builds up a lot, pretty gross.”
