Not only does this screen cleaner spray a fine mist of sanitising solution onto your device, but it also functions as a cloth to wipe away grease and grime. The microfibre cloth is wrapped around the spray bottle, so you can quickly and easily clean your screen on the move.
Ideal for annoying greasy fingerprints, smears and dust, and you can even use it to clean your television.
Simply remove the microfibre cloth coating and put it in the washing machine when it gets dirty for easy cleaning. It's worth noting, there's no cleaning fluid included, but simply fill with glass cleaner or distilled water to get cleaning.

Makeup Brush Cleaner
Skincare experts recommend washing makeup brushes once a week, but the hassle of washing brushes without a specialized tool results in most of us neglecting the task.
This 18 piece makeup brush cleaner set contains everything you need to clean your makeup brushes and sponges. After filling the cleaning bowl with the included cleaning solution, you can fit the battery powered rotating head onto your brush using a brush attachment piece. The 2xAAA batteries are included, so you can start straight away.
Spin the brush in the solution to clean it, and in the air to dry it. All the attachments come in an eco-friendly net bag.
