The laundry owner's trick to get rid of yellow stains on the bed cover is by adding 1 kitchen ingredient.
The first step, prepare a ladle or container to mix the cleaning agent. Put 3 cups of clean water into the ladle, then add 1.5 cups of bleach and 1 cup of dishwashing soap. So, dishwashing soap is the main kitchen ingredient for practicing this trick to get rid of yellow stains on bed covers.

How to soften dry hands due to frequent contact with dish soap.
There are several natural ways that can help soften dry hands due to frequent exposure to dish soap.
1. Use mild soap.
Choose dish soap that is gentle and free of harsh chemicals or fragrances that can irritate the skin.
2. Use gloves.
When washing dishes or doing other household chores that involve the use of water and detergent, always wear rubber or plastic gloves. This will protect your hands from direct contact with chemicals that can dry out the skin.
3. Use moisturizer.
After washing dishes or doing other household chores, apply a special moisturizer to your hands thoroughly. Choose a moisturizer that contains ingredients such as natural oils (for example olive oil, almond oil, or coconut oil) or shea butter which can help soften and moisturize the skin.
4. Use natural oils.
Before going to bed, apply natural oil such as olive oil or almond oil to your hands, then use rubber or plastic gloves to cover them. Let the oil soak overnight. This will help moisturize and care for the skin of your hands intensively.
5. Avoid hot water.
When washing hands or doing other activities that involve contact with water, avoid using water that is too hot. Hot water can remove natural oils from the skin and make it drier.
6. Drink lots of water.
Make sure you stay well hydrated by drinking enough water every day. Adequate hydration can help maintain skin moisture from within.
7. Consume nutritious food.
Eat foods rich in nutrients, especially those containing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, as well as important vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E and zinc. This can help keep skin healthy and soft.
By following these tips regularly, you can help keep the skin on your hands soft and avoid dryness caused by frequent exposure to dish soap or other chemicals.
