We all suffer from it from time to time: limescale in the shower. The shower wall, the tap and the spray head: they all have to suffer. But don't worry, with a little vinegar and washing-up liquid, you can get rid of it in no time! How to do it. We show you the sustainable and efficient way to get your shower sparkling clean again.
Why descaling is important
Limescale is not only annoying to see, but it can also affect the life of your shower. It reduces water pressure and can even damage pipes. Regular descaling ensures that your shower lasts longer and always looks nice and fresh. Win-win if you ask us.

4-steps to a limescale-free shower
- Preparation: In a spray bottle, mix equal parts cleaning vinegar and water. Add a few drops of our hand dishwash and shake well. Did you know that our hand dishwash is not only effective against grease and dirt, but also 100% biodegradable and microplastic-free? Can you get started with peace of mind.
- Application: Spray the mixture generously on all surfaces with limescale. Pay special attention to shower heads, tiles and glass walls. Let the mixture soak in for at least 15 minutes to allow it to properly act on the limescale.
- Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the surfaces. For stubborn stains, apply a little extra detergent directly to the sponge. Marcel's Green Soap's sustainable hand dishwash will loosen dirt without harmful ingredients.
- Rinse: Rinse everything thoroughly with warm water. You will see that the limescale is gone and your shower shines again.
