Green Your Cleaning Routine in Time for Thanksgiving Guests

, ,

With Thanksgiving just days away, this weekend will most likely be spent freshening, cleaning and sprucing up the home in preparation for family and friends! Why not ‘green up’ your cleaning routine as you mop, dust, wash the dishes and launder the sheets? “Mom” has chosen a few of her favorite eco-friendly cleaning items to make the job an earth-friendly one!

Soapberry Suds

 

Buckaroo Organics Soapberry Suds Organic Laundry Detergent

Yee-haw! Treat your linens and your guests to freshly laundered sheets and bedding! Instead of using a synthetic surfactant or soaping agent, Buckaroo Organics’ detergent contains 100% USDA Certified Organic Soapberries, which are also known as soapnuts.

According to the company, “The soapberry not only cleans, but also possesses natural fabric softening capabilities. The saponin contained in the husk of the natural berry is our active ingredient for wranglin’ tough dirt and hard to treat stains and is gentle on delicate fabrics.”

All ingredients used in the detergent are organic, natural and safe for both family and the environment. It is also hypo-allergenic and a wonderful choice for those with sensitivities.

 

Frosch Dishwashing Liquid

Frosch Aloe Vera Dishwashing Liquid

Germany’s “Most Trusted Household Cleaning Brand” is now available in the US, and your dishes will sparkle and shine for your guests on Thanksgiving Day when you use this dishwashing liquid. The Aloe Vera Dishwashing Liquid gets dishes spotlessly clean while moisturizing hands, and smells amazing!

Frosch Lavender Universal Cleaning Liquid

 

Frosch Lavender Universal Cleaner

One of “Mom’s” favorite essential oils is lavender, and cleaning with the Lavender Universal Cleaner is like breathing in relaxation as you scrub, mop and prep the household. The Lavender Universal Cleaner cleans away dirt and grease while sanitizing floors and most washable household surfaces, leaving behind only a wonderful scent!

Avalon Organics Baby Sunscreen

As summer approaches and the weather warms up, the whole family wants to head outside to enjoy the sunshine! For parents, that means making sure the children are properly protected from head to toe from harmful UVA & UVB rays. What better protection than titanium dioxide, which is a natural reflective barrier. Avalon Organics sunscreen for baby offers superior natural mineral sunscreen in SPF 18, and combines titanium dioxide with certified organic chamomile and aloe (both soothe baby’s tender skin) plus organic jojoba and sunflower for a creamy, non-greasy formula. Hypo-allergenic, fragrance-free and paraben-free, this sunscreen is perfect for use by the entire family. Found online at www.avalonorganics.com, or visit their website for a list of retailers.
