Sun & Earth-Review/Giveaway

I think someone (could it be my husband???) knows that I am allergic to cleaning because I received 6 products to review and all but one had to do with some type of housework!  The other was hand soap-yes, that’s used to clean my hands, but still!  Laundry has become such a task as well so anything that helps to make it less of a chore helps.  Kind of.  I really think just having another family member to actually HELP me or better yet, to do it, would be the best thing. Oops-did I say that out loud?  How many of you agree with that?   

My Take-They all have the most wonderful light orange scent that I just love but citrus is high on my list of essentials. If I had to pick my favorites it would be the laundry detergent, floor cleaner and the all purpose cleaner with the least being the dish liquid only because it doesn’t seem as concentrated as it says it is-I had to use more.  

Dishwashing Detergent Pacs- worked like any other but these were the better choice.  Doesn't harm the environment and are perfect for those that have septic systems. Biodegradable plus phosphate free.  All products are natural and hypo-allergenic which is why I didn’t sneeze once.  

Laundry Detergent- It cleaned heavy soiled cloth diapers and the our dog’s blanket-enough said.

Floor and All Purpose Cleaner-Excellent cleaning products that if I happen to forget to wear gloves, are also be gentle on my hands.  I really don’t like the day or two after I have cleaned to find that my hands are all dry and rough like a mans after cleaning. Both products are natural, non-toxic and primarily plant based. Rest assured that this product is 100% safe to use anywhere in the home, and will not pose a threat to children or pets.  No harmful chemicals will be emitted from these green cleaning products.  Non-toxic and free from petroleum-based solvents. Using these gave me the added peace of mind knowing that I am not exposing my self, my family, or pets with any harmful chemical residues or fumes. Some of the all-natural ingredients in the green cleaning products include water, vegetable oil, coconut oil, orange oil, and much more.  How many of you use a cleaner that says to not breathe in fumes. How on earth do you not breath while you are cleaning???

Not having to use multiple products really made it so much easier to clean!

All Purpose Cleaner- Instantly removed grease, dirt and grime from all rooms. I used it on everything-Gracie’s room, her high chair, the kitchen and in the bathroom (not on the mirrors).  BONUS-It worked on my stainless steel appliances much better than what I was using. DOUBLE BONUS- I tried it outside on the pollen filled porch rails and outdoor table and it worked great!  Although the formula is mild, this is one hardworking cleaner.

Works well on:

• Greasy Stove Tops
• Refrigerators
• Pet Areas
• Kitchen Counter Tops safe for granite and corian
• Tile Floors
• Baby Changing Table
• Children's High Chair
• School Desks
• Bathrooms safe for marble
• Sponge Mopping Floor: Mix 1 part to 10 parts water 

Floor Cleaner-Worked great at removing dirt from all of our floors. That was amazing to me. Again, was able to clean without the need for multiple products that I would normally use for each type of flooring that we have in the house-wood, ceramic tile, a bit of marble in front of the fireplace and carpet. 

Works well on:

• Hardwood (including engineered)
• Ceramic Tile
• Vinyl
• Marble
• Laminate
• Carpet (test on an inconspicuous area)
