Nowadays everyone is trying to be green. “Recycle!” “Only use reusable grocery bags.” “You don’t compost?!”
I must admit I’m one for trying to be greener. We recycle. I use reusable grocery bags and snack bags. We all have stainless steel water bottles. I don’t buy bottled water unless it’s an emergency.
There are a few natural products that I use and love. I haven’t totally switched over to everything natural. Work in progress.
3 NATURAL PRODUCTS YOU SHOULD TRY
NORWEX
If you are into natural, chemical-free cleaning then you will love Norwex. These are cleaning cloths that you wet with water and start cleaning. JUST WATER!! Enviro Cloth is my favorite. You can use it to clean ANYTHING! I use the Enviro Cloth paired with the Window Cloth to clean mirrors and glass doors in our apartment. It’s so clean that I’ve bumped into the balcony door thinking it was open. Ha Ha I also use the Enviro Cloth to clean my bathroom and I’m done in 5 minutes. 5 MINUTES! I’ve timed myself.
Another one of my favorite cloths from Norwex is the Body Cloth. When my children were babies/toddlers they had eczema. I tried all of the eczema lotions and body wash, nothing worked. I tried the Body Cloth, I saw results in the FIRST WEEK! I love Norwex!
If you are interested in Norwex contact my friend Patricia at phillcleangreen@gmail.com You won’t regret it!
ESSENTIAL OILS
Instead of pain medication for your headaches try rubbing some peppermint oil on your temples. This works EVERY SINGLE TIME for everyone in my family. Essential oils have SO MANY health benefits. Do your research!
Instead of candles, use a diffuser with some of your favorite essential oil. A few I like to diffuse are peppermint, lavender, eucalyptus, and On Guard by Doterra during the cold season. I recently was introduced to Young Living oils. I have yet to try them out.
Essential oils can also be used for cleaning. There are a ton of recipes online for making your own natural cleaning solutions with essential oils.
If you are interested in Doterra oils contact my friend Hannah at homesweethannie@gmail.com and for Young Living oils contact my friend Lydia at lydiamcintosh90@gmail.com Essential oils are A-MAZING!!
DESSERT ESSENCE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL TOOTHPASTE
I received this toothpaste through a campaign with Moms Meet. I had heard/read good things about charcoal toothpaste but I was still skeptical. I’ve been using the toothpaste since November 2018 and I really like it! My breath smells fresh and I’ve seen my teeth get whiter.
Check out Desert Essence to see the wide selection of toothpaste and other natural products they have. On their website, you can also find out where you can purchase their products locally.
These are a few of the natural products I use in my home. Give some of these products a try and let me know what you think.
What are some natural products that you love? Have you used any of the ones I mentioned? If you aren’t into natural things no worries, Everything Will Be Just Fine!
