As she continues to tackle the landscape of all things green, Girlawhirl is finally ready to take a good hard look in the cabinet under her sink. Truth be told, it's not a place she ventures into all that often because in her ancient apartment, she's never quite sure what's lurking back there. It just plain gives her the creeps. But she figures that there are plenty of cleaning products, old sponges and other junk that she really should clean out and recycle…
The impetus behind her clean sweep under the sink? An Eco-Me™ Natural Home Cleaning Kit, which contains everything Girlawhirl needs to keep her apartment clean and tidy without the use of harsh chemicals. But the best part is that Girlawhirl gets to make like a chemist and whip up her own products combining the Eco-Me Essential Oil Home Blend with pantry staples like olive oil, white vinegar, baking soda and water.
After just a few minutes of mixing, shaking and stirring, Girlawhirl had three cleansing products – an All Purpose Cleaner, a Wood Polish Cleaner and a Scrub Cleanser – that, quite frankly, smelled better than the last spa she went to. All of the oils in the Home Blend have antiseptic properties, but in addition, the tea tree oil has antifungal properties, the lavender oil antibacterial, the rosemary oil fights infectious germs and the lemongrass removes odors naturally. The kit comes with bottles marked with fill lines, easy to follow instructions, a scrub brush and microfiber cloth. There's enough of the Essential Oil Home Blend for a refill of each cleaner, and Girlawhirl can order more online along with new cleaning cloths and other tools.
Now that she's got her cleaning system worked out – and the cupboard under the sink cleaned out – Girlawhirl's going to check out all of the other types of Eco-Me kits. They have them for body products, baby products and even for dogs and cats!
