A FOGGY, dull glass is not desirable, and trying to get the build-up off of one can feel impossible.

Luckily, there's a way to make your old-looking glasses shine again in just a few steps.

The folks at Good Housekeeping detailed what to do to keep your glasses looking new, and it will only take a few ingredients.

If the problem with your glasses is hard-water minerals, you simply have to soak them in white vinegar for five minutes.

White vinegar is acidic, so it will dissolve the minerals. And if the spots are especially heavy, heat the vinegar up before soaking the glasses.

If the pesky spots still aren't gone, you'll need to carefully rub them with a small amount of baking soda on your fingertip.

You can add some water to the baking soda and make a paste to ensure you don't damage the glass.

Next, you'll need to rinse the glasses off.

After this, dry them with a microfiber cloth. Be sure to dry them as soon as you rinse them to prevent the creation of new hard water stains that occur when glasses are left to air dry.

Now that your glasses are covered, you might want to know the proper way to make your mirrors shine.

For most people it's second nature to grab a damp rag and scrub away at their mirror in a circular motion. Despite the methods popularity, this isn't the best way to approach cleaning your mirrors.

According to Real Simple, the circular motion re-deposits the dirt from your cleaning cloth back onto the surface, leaving pesky streaks as a result.

To get the best results when cleaning your mirrors, make sure you wipe them using an S-pattern motion from top to bottom.

The object you choose to clean with also plays a part. Switch out paper towels or rags that have a tendency to leave behind lint for a thin microfiber cloth.

Furthermore, ensure you spray your cleaning solution on the cloth, and not directly on the mirror.

This will prevent liquid from seeping behind the silver coating, creating discoloration via black tarnish marks.
