'Deep clean your sink using natural products you already have,' she wrote in the video.

The mum first sprinkled the baking soda in and around both sinks then cleaned each one thoroughly with a sponge.

She then poured the white vinegar over the baking soda to disinfect and kill all unwanted germs, bacteria and particles.

With a bit of water she then rubbed the inside of a lemon on the sink to deodorise the surface before buffing with baby oil to maintain the shine.

'Look how shiny it is!' one TikTok user replied, another added: 'Good to know!'

Another also asked if the mum could make a video demonstrating how to clean the shower doorframe using a similar tactic, which she replied: 'Yes! I'll do one soon'.

This isn't the first time the mum has gone viral on the popular platform, as last month she revealed how to clean a bedroom mattress and leave it sparkling white in minutes. 

The hack involves combining baking soda, also known as bi-carb soda, with essential oil and sprinkling the mixture over a mattress to remove stains and smells. 

'Treat yourself to a good nights sleep,' she said in the caption. 

As mattresses can become stale over time, the handy tip will deeply clean the bedding and remove dirt, dust, sweat and bodily fluids lurking beneath the surface.

While the cleaning hack seems to be new trendy tactic, Australian mums part of the popular Facebook group Mums Who Clean have already been using the unique approach for years.

One woman part of the group said it's essential to wet the mattress first then apply the bi-carb soda and allow it to dry. 

'You need to have whatever your cleaning wet first to lift the stain - dry bicarb won't lift it,' she said online.

'As it dries it will draw the stain out and you'll see [the] bicarb change colour.'

How did the mum clean her bed with baking soda?

Strip bed and vacuum the mattress

Mix baking soda with essential oil and sprinkle all over the mattress – leave for several hours
