Tuesday's Green Tip - Review and Giveaway

CONTEST CLOSED WE HAVE OUR WINNERS. CLICK HERE FOR MY OTHER GREEN GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!

Hello and welcome to this week's Green Tip and giveaway. I am posting late today as the last few days have been crazy busy at work, which for me is AWESOME being a Real Estate agent. If you are here for the first time go ahead and look around you might just like what you see!

I am thinking of changing Tuesday's Green Tip to Green Tuesday. I am now doing green product reviews and giveaways and those are not really tips however I will not be doing giveaways every week forever, or will I??? I would love your input!

Now on to why you stopped by. Today I will be reviewing Simple Pure Clean products, an all natural, never tested on animals woman owned company!

From their web site:

All natural cleaning products, containing
the power of plant and vegetable based
ingredients with pure essential oils
added for their cleaning properties and
aromatherapy health benefits for you
and your family. We add PURE essential
oils for their effective cleaning
properties, not just for their scent.

Many common household cleaners
today can contain potentially dangerous
toxins that can lead to illness, fatigue,
and disease. Businesses, hospitals,
and schools are switching to our
environmentally safe, effective
cleaners to increase health among
family members, clients, and employees
while decreasing disposal costs of
traditional household toxins and
preserving our environment.


These arrived just in time to clean my husband's bathroom, YICK! OK, it is not that bad but he does not clean it as often as he should, I use it only if I have to. So this was a good test for these products.

He used the Bathroom Cleaner

He was impressed, it cleaned the sink and counter top with little effort and left it shinny clean! He then diluted some with a little water (in case it was sticky, he does that with all cleaners) and attacked the floor. Left them nice and clean with no sticky residue. I tried some undiluted on the main bathroom floor and again it was not sticky at all.

He then used the Glass Cleaner

Again he was impressed left the mirrors clean and totally streak free.

That was the end of his testing of the products they sent me to review, now it was my turn! I also received their All Purpose Cleaner.


I used this on my kitchen counters and just like the other products it worked beautifully and left my counters nice and clean. I also used it to clean the inside of my refrigerator and just like the counters it left it sparking clean.

I also tried their Natural Air Freshener in Lavender

All I can say is that I LOVE this stuff and will be ordering some from them soon, I am almost out.

We both agreed that these products are great. Not only are they all natural, non toxic, biodegradable and earth, kid and pet friendly they are excellent cleaning products and we highly recommend them.

They have a full line of all natural products including natural baby products, personal care products, other cleaning products and of course the ones I reviewed.

Now for the giveaway.....There will be 2 winners! Each winner will receive 1 All Purpose Cleaner, 1 Glass Cleaner, 1 Bathroom Cleaner PLUS one winner will also receive a Citrus Air Natural Freshener and the other winner will receive a Peppermint Natural Air Freshener.

Tuesday's Green Tip and Giveaway

Happy Tuesday....so excited that February is here. the days are getting longer but that darn Groundhog saw his shadow and it scared him back into his burrow for 6 more weeks. I question the reliability of that! :)

On to the topic at hand...Green Tip.

Today we will revisit the bathroom we visited this room here. Today we are talking about toothpaste.

There are several brands of natural toothpaste Jason, Dessert Essence and Toms of Maine are just a few.

I am a fan of Toms of Maine, have been since high school and this is what we currently use. My husband and I use their Natural Whole care in winter mint, it leaves your mouth nice and sparkling clean. The boys use their children's Silly Strawberry but occasionally use ours, they both like the natural minty taste.

Toms of Maine is dedicated to making all natural products that are never tested on animals. They produce their products in an environmentally substantial manner, in fact ALL their product containers are recyclable. Check their web site here for more information.

You can purchase Toms of Maine toothpaste at most major retailers and drugstores. But why go buy it when you can win it here.

Up for grabs are two tubes one tube of Natural Whole care -anti cavity, tarter control plus whitening with Fluoride in winter mint and one tube of Children's Silly Strawberry anti cavity fluoride.

Tuesday's Green Tip on Wednesday???

I am over a day late with this post, I am so sorry. It has been a very busy week and honestly I should be working not blogging right now! So here is Tuesday's Green tip on Wednesday......
This week I will be using a Green tip a good friend posted on Facebook. It is so simple it is genius! Thank You A!

"Here's an easy way to be just a tiny bit greener. My daughter and I drink a lot of filtered water. When some is left in a glass I don't dump it down the drain. Instead I water the plants with it. The water is at room temperature by this point and because it is filtered there is no chlorine."


Until next week...keep it Green

PS A shout out to The Crazy Green Cheapskate...I won a giveaway on her blog and wanted to show her some love! Thanks!!!
