I tried lemon juice to remove stubborn limescale on my faucet – it was so good, I’ll never use shop-bought cleaner on it again

Dark green kitchen with marble countertops and backsplash, fluted white sink, brass hardware, marble shelf with flowers, glassware, artwork.

I live in a hard-water area meaning limescale stains and build up is a never-ending battle. The mineral deposits left residue around our faucets, especially in the kitchen, and I struggled to get the tougher ones off – until I called on Mother Nature.

Using lemon juice and water to make a 1:1 cleaning spray, I tested this cheap and natural cleaning solution on the most stubborn limescale marks in my home: the kitchen faucet and base.
