My MB pro 13' has a very greasy keyboard how do I clean it?

I've had a 13' MB pro for about 6 months now, everyday for the past 4 months I would get really mad at the fact that my MB's keyboard is never clean even though I clean it every day, I thoroughly clean it with a microfibre cloth with very little rubbing alcohol, and I also use a cotton swab to clean between the keys which goes well but, the only problem I have is that the keys are very greasy, their colors have changed, and no matter what I do nothing works, I tried what YouTube videos said to do which looked like it worked, I did what my friends do with their MBs, and they all didn't work with my MacBook, is it a problem with MB or is it just a problem everyone has and there is/isn't a solution to it? If there is a solution I would love you guys to share it with me, I really need help.

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

How to clean the keyboard of your MacBook or MacBook Pro



the mac shipped with a tissue thin insert that covered the keyboard, you can always use that before you close the lid if you are at your wits end...

ref:

anything thicker is not recommended: Using a camera cover, palm rest, or keyboard cover on a Mac ...
