Hey girls, have you ever been at war with a dirty electrical outlet? I was last weekend! With my mascara running, I was a walking disaster. Let me guide you through this jungle of electrical outlet maintenance.

Why not use water to clean your outlets?

Water is the enemy of electricity. Imagine combining your favorite heels with a beach dress… It doesn’t work, does it? Similarly, mixing water and electricity could cause a short circuit or even a fire.

Why is it crucial to turn off the power before cleaning?
Safety first! It’s like putting on a helmet on a bike. You don’t want to take any unnecessary risks, especially when it comes to electricity.

How to identify a dirty outlet?

It’s often yellowed, stained, or leaves marks on your devices. Just like that lipstick stain that refuses to go away, a neglected outlet can be stubborn.

Soft Cloth Tip
Start simple. A soft, clean, dry cloth can be your best friend. Just rub it gently to remove dust. It’s almost as satisfying as taking off your shoes after a long day!
