In her viral video, Instagram user Laura Sibley (@fromwifetolife) demonstrated the budget-friendly cleaning technique.

“If you hate cleaning your shower screen, I have the answer,” she told her followers.

She explained that her “simple and cheap hack” makes all watermarks “slide right off like magic”.

Laura said she was “seriously impressed” by the results every time she showers.

The Instagrammer revealed that instead of tackling limescale with cleaning products or white vinegar, she opts for a baking item.

And no, it’s not baking soda.

Laura recommended using a sheet of grease proof paper to scrub your shower screen.

She demonstrated how to scrunch up the paper and rub it until “the water slides off” the surface.

You can pick up a roll of Greaseproof Baking Paper from Asda for £1.45, which breaks down to just 14p per metre.

And since you can tackle your screen with the same piece, this hack only using part of your roll.

Laura described cleaning her shower screen as her “least favourite job” since her household has “ridiculously hard water”.

However, the Instagrammer now swears by this hack for easing the process.

She explained how the task is now less “faffy” and can be completed in seconds.

Laura showed her followers her new and improved shower screen after completing the task.

Instagram users shared their thoughts on the method in the comments section.

“OMG, I’m doing this today,” wrote one inspired viewer.

Another impressed follower described the technique as “actual witchcraft”.

“What is this magic?” asked a third commenter.

“That’s a great hack,” said another Instagram user.

“No flipping way. How did you know to do this? You need to write a book,” commented one viewer.
