1. Buy generic magic erasers to save money

There is no need to buy the expensive brand of magic eraser since the cheaper ones work just as well. I have been buying the generic brand of magic erasers for years and after testing several brands, this generic magic eraser is the best I have found.

The sponges are extra thick and therefore take longer to break down. I get mine in a 20 pack for less than $10, that’s enough magic erasers for a whole year! Buy them from here!

2. Remove scuff marks off your walls

The whole inside of my house is painted white so scuff marks are a daily thing. But thanks to my magic eraser I no longer have to spend my weekends scrubbing away at my walls. They come off so easily by just wetting a magic eraser and giving the mark a quick rub down.

3. Get rid of soap scum on your shower glass

Nothing makes a bathroom look dirtier than soap scum on the shower glass. Thankfully it’s super easy to remove with a magic eraser and some elbow grease. Your shower screens will look sparkling new again!

4. Make white sneakers look like new again

White sneakers and shoes can look dirty after just one wear. Give them a quick wipe down with a damp magic eraser and they will look beautiful and clean again!

Have a label or a sticker that just won’t budge? Get the sticky adhesive off your items like glass bottles and mugs with a magic eraser!

Use a magic eraser on a turned off and cooled down flat iron to wipe away all the grime and dirt that has built up from using it.

8. Get rid of all the yucky grime on your keyboard

Now that your computer or laptop is clean you need to get that keyboard clean too. Did you know that research has found that your keyboard can be dirtier than your bathroom! YUCK! After learning that fact I try to clean my keyboard at least once a week. All you need is a very lightly wet magic eraser and some light rubbing. Make sure you don’t put too much pressure on the keyboard while cleaning it to avoid rubbing off the letters.

9. Clean dry erase boards

I use my dry erase board daily and I have noticed that after months of writing and erasing, some of the market stains don’t fully come off anymore. Thankfully a magic eraser is a perfect tool to fully get rid of any stains and marks on your dry erase board!

I have to be honest with you. I’m ashamed to admit this but for years I would avoid cleaning my oven glass door because it just seemed impossible to clean. But then I came across this amazing magic eraser hack by Polished Habitat and now I don’t dread cleaning it ever again!

15. Remove permanent marker from pretty much anything
