How to Use Shaving Cream to Keep Your Bathroom Mirror From Fogging

Keep your bathroom mirror clear by mastering shaving cream mirror cleaning. A few easy steps can make a big difference.
Prep Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • Shaving cream foam
  • Microfiber cloth
  • Kitchen towel or soft cloth Optional

Instructions

  • Spray a small amount of shaving cream foam directly onto the mirror. You don’t need much, just enough to lightly cover the surface you want to clean and treat.

  • Use your hand to spread the shaving cream across the mirror in a thin, even layer. Make sure you cover the areas that usually become foggy after a hot shower.
