is typically the number one cause of having that not-so-charming cloudy look. This is caused by hard water running through your shower head leaving behind a chalky residue every time you wash.
It's this high mineral content of calcium and magnesium that turns into those unsightly deposits betraying your efforts.
Water loves to hang on to these minerals as it dries, which ends up forming those stubborn spots that fog up your once crystal-clear screen. To add insult to injury, this type of water can stop soap from rinsing away properly.
To make it worse, soap prefers to mingle with the minerals and clings to your shower screen for dear life.
Sure, at first, limescale and soap buildup is just a visual mess in your otherwise spotless bathroom, but if you ignore it, it'll only get more clingy, toughening up and attracting nastiness like and mildew.
Limescale can also wreak havoc on the glass itself by causing pitting and etching.

Susan swears by the use of a wet magic sponge as she says: "I do this method and the stains vanish every time. I use a wet magic sponge (my holy grail!), wipe down with a wet microfibre cloth and buff to a shine with a glass cloth. Takes less than a minute. Hope it helps you all."

In the comments, one curious user inquired about the necessity of additional cleaning sprays.
Sarah Bendall asked: "Thank you for sharing! No products sprayed on the screen? No bleach or anything with the sponge?"
To which Susan responded: "Not a thing and it beats and other home remedies! Just water on the sponge. A toothbrush is handy round fixings though."
Kelly Abbot chimed in: "I love these sponges. They work fantastic for nearly all stains."
