Green Review and Giveaway #2 -Eco-Me Natural Scrub Cleanser

GIVEAWAY IS OVER...THANKS TO ALL WHO ENTERED!

So sorry this is late...work has been getting busy and today was one of those days and on top of it my Mom was in town. I had a lot going on!

On with business....

SURPRISE a Green Cleaner! I told you I am obsessed! This time I was fortunate enough to be able to try a wonderful Scrub Cleanser from Eco-Me




This product is different from others I have tried, you mix it your self. It comes with everything you need. The container, baking soda, vinegar and essential oil all you add is a little water!

I was excited to use this on my bath tub. I thought it might be a good idea to mix it over the tub...we all remember the volcano's from science class in grade school? Baking soda and vinegar foam! This step needs to be done VERY SLOWLY! Of course at first it was not slow enough, so I was glad I had the foresight to mix it over the tub. Other then that mixing it was a breeze.

As for the cleaning...it did a great job and it smelled wonderful. It did not even leave a lot of white baking soda residue, which I do not like. This is another reason I tried it in my tub....what little that was left behind washed off in the next shower.

From their Web site:

At Eco-Me, we’re concerned about how toxins are affecting lives and the world around us. Because of this, we are committed to sharing the latest research with you. Read the eye-opening information below and make sure to head to our Household Safety section to learn more. Also, check back to find the latest information about our company and discover compelling research about topics that affect every one of us. After all, isn’t it time to change the way we clean our environment, homes and bodies?

DID YOU KNOW?
Any chemical is toxic if you ingest enough of it. The government has set benchmarks for toxicity and a product is generally considered not toxic if the lethal dose is greater than 5 grams per kilogram of body weight (2 ounces for a 25 lb child or 12 ounces for a 150 lb adult). Warning labels on containers refer only to toxic hazards from ingestion, but most products are absorbed through inhalation and skin absorption. Labels that have the following statements should be removed from your house as they pose a risk to your health: “Do not induce vomiting”–“Corrosive - rinse skin immediately”—“fatal if swallowed”–“Danger”–“Poison”

How do you clean your home? Remember that when you spray a chemical solution onto a surface a small percentage is left behind as well as emitted into the air. Use Eco-Me Home Kits to clean your home without any chemicals and still remove up t0 99% bacteria and germs!

Your skin is the largest organ of your body and acts like a giant sponge. When you take a bath, are you soaking in left over cleaners? Have you ever coughed or gagged after using a spray product, broken out in a rash for unknown reasons, have your eyes ever watered and become red and itchy upon entering a room after if was cleaned with chemical based products? Most people answer yes to these questions and find it shocking how many chemicals are stored and used daily in their homes. But, the good news is that you can choose complete natural cleaning products by choosing Eco-Me.

The nice people at Eco-Me have given me one element "kit" of their Natural Scrub Cleanser for one of my lucky readers
