For starters, when it comes to cleaning natural stone like marble and granite, they can be hard to clean because expensive cleaners tend to build up and leave a haze behind.

Organic dish soap is good to use for manicures. Natural oils stick to your fingernails, which makes it hard for your nail polish to stick, because of that the life of your manicure will be shortened, no matter how expensive that polish is.
