Even when it comes to people's ideals, we really want our boyfriends or girlfriends to be clean all the time. Who wants to be walking down the mall with someone who hasn't cleaned himself of herself for a couple of days, right? You would not take the risk and swallow the humiliation easily.



As human beings, it is just but natural to make ourselves and our surroundings neat and clean. It is not OCD but it is our nature that when we are at home. We wipe dusty windows, vases, tables, and other stuff. We sweep the floors of our rooms, vacuum clean the carpets in the living room, and arrange the beddings and pillows. If we are in restaurants and food centers, we always take our trays to designated disposing areas. In addition, if we have pets at home, we oblige ourselves to bathe them at least once a week. See how orderly are we?

We should not only take care of our environment, but also the things we use everyday like our underwear, clothes, bags, and shoes. However, washing our clothes is just easy with the help of washing machines or laundry service stores. There is one thing that we usually leave out in our cleaning routine - our mobile phone. We neglect it for it is only a gadget, an electronic thingy. But this is not right. We use our mobile phone everyday and everywhere. It magnets more dust, germs, and bacteria more than our bodies do. So, it is the responsibility of the owner to clean and take care of the mobile phone upon buying it. Taking care of your mobile phone is not easy but it is not difficult either. Here are a few tips that may help you in cleaning your phone without destroying it and without paying technicians to do the cleaning for you.

You may use a damp cloth, a cotton ball or cotton bud, a toothbrush with fine bristles, or an eyeglass wiper in wiping the sides of your mobile phone. For thorough cleaning, you may use unscented hand sanitizer or alcohol, then wipe. Turn-off your cell phone when cleaning it. Make sure that the alcohol or your cleaning liquid won't get in your cellphone's system. Use a toothbrush or cotton bud in getting tiny amounts of dirt that accumulate in between buttons.
