Dump The Chemcials
If you have small children in your home, you're probably no stranger to child
safety locks on your cabinet doors.
And the reason is simple… think of all the harmful, toxic, dangerous
chemicals hiding in plastic containers behind those doors. They're used to
clean toilets, scrub sinks, and dissolve that disgusting glob of gunk that's
been hiding behind the trash can for 3 weeks now.
But there's a better way.
Instead of stocking your home with unpronounceable toxic chemicals, you
can use NATURAL essential oils for cleaning!
With the power that cleaning chemicals wield, we of course want to protect
the precious little-ones in our lives from letting their curiosity lead them to a
dangerous – and potentially fatal – accident.
To be sure, you must always use essential oils with safety, according to the
label, and in the correct amounts.
Getting Started
You can use essential oils for household chores alongside other natural
products like bicarbonate of soda, Castile soap, and vinegar. Oils provide not
only an amazingly-fresh aroma, but also put the elbow-grease behind the
cleaning with their naturally derived, plant-based ingredients.
Some great oils for cleaning include Lemon, Lime, Tea Tree, Lavender, Pine,
Cinnamon, Eucalyptus, Thyme, Orange, Rosemary, Peppermint, and the
essential oil blends – Thieves® and Purification®.
All have cleansing properties and the bonus is that these oils have multiple
purposes, so you can use them in all sorts of ways to support your health and
wellness!
Cleaning Around The House
Here are a few ways to use essential oils in household cleaning. Feel free to
contact me to learn even more and be sure to do a quick spot test on
surfaces first!
The Floors: Pop a few drops of essential oils into your mop bucket with hot
water and a splash of vinegar. You'll get those floors sparkling clean.
The Toilet: A few drops of eucalyptus oil with some bicarbonate of soda in the
toilet bowl will clean it, remove odors, and keep your bathroom smelling
fresh.
The Shower: Lemon oil + vinegar in the shower removes hard water stains
and unsightly mildew. Soak shower heads for a sparkling shine.
The Whole House: Combine 1 capful Thieves Household Cleaner and 2–3 cups
water. This all-purpose cleaner can be used on any surface in your home for
dusting, spot cleaning, scrubbing, or any other cleaning need.
Now you can actually ditch overpowering and harsh chemical-based products and
keep your home smelling fresh and clean, using all-natural ingredients!
How's that for the power of mother nature?


This is an amazing recipe for cleaning your
entire bathroom!
It's all-natural, safe and will leave your bathroom looking and smelling great. Say 'good-bye' to harsh chemicals!
