About this deal

Citric Acid can be found in commercial facial cream and lotions where it acts as an antioxidant, revitalising skin and balancing pH. Rich in Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant, it enhances the production of collagen potentially restoring both skin firmness and elasticity. It is also a proven skin exfoliator, removing dead skin cells. Windows – to clean dirty windows blend a tablespoon of Citric Acid with a litre of water. Pour into a spray bottle, spray, wipe and hey presto! Bathroom & Kitchen – Citric Acid is very effective when it comes to cleaning bathrooms. A solution of 10 parts water to 1 part Citric Acid to clean and disinfect the bathroom vanity, basin, shower recess and toilet. Less dilution for difficult areas. For a very grotty toilet add a cup of Citric Acid to the toilet bowl, let it sit over-night, give it a brush in the morning and be amazed at the result. To clean and disinfect kitchen benchtops, cupboards, and stove tops, use a similar solution of 10:1 as with bathrooms. If need be, reduce the dilution for difficult areas.

Improved Cleaning – If you live in an area with hard water, then detergents cannot soap & sud properly. The minerals in hard water (usually calcium and magnesium) prevent detergent from soaping up and sudsing properly. Citric Acid binds those minerals, resulting in water which is now soft, allowing detergents to do their job. Often when the water is soft less detergent is needed.

Rich in Vitamin C and a powerful antioxidant, it enhances the production of collagen, potentially restoring both skin firmness and elasticity. It is also a proven skin exfoliator, removing dead skin cells. For sour bread recipes like sourdough and rye, no more than 1 tablespoon of citric acid can be used in place of salt. This will add to the tanginess and make the bread taste sourer. Mix citric acid and hot water in a container. Soak a cleaning cloth or mop in the solution and use it to clean for effective results.
