Ecover Laundry Powder, 48-Ounce Box (Pack of 4) Review

Ecover Laundry Powder,  48-Ounce Box
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am surprised at the other review saying how awful this soap is. I have been using all natural products for a long time. I also did a lot of research on which laundry detergent to use. This powder is awesome. It got my whites whiter than any other all natural detergent I have ever used. I would definitely try it. The powder works better than the liquid.

J.R. Liggetts Bar Shampoo Review

I have short, colored, fine hair.I switched from Liggett's original formula to the herbal about four months ago, because the herbal works better with our hard water.It's a great product which doesn't add more plastic to the landfills, it's biodegradeable, sulfate free and my hair looks very healthy.After about a week or week and a half I find that I do get a little bit of build up, but I just keep a spray bottle of vinegar in the shower and that takes care of that.My only real complaint is that I can't find it in the stores where I live!

Best stuff on the market but not found in local grocery stores.If you have a local Ace Hardware store in your town you can order it for 17.88 a case and have it shipped to the store.You have to buy a case but it works out to 1.78 a can. (no shipping charges to the store) you can have it shipped to your house but you pay shipping then.

Great products get it while you can.

I ordered this and got it 3 days later.It came from Texas to Ohio. I was so worried after reading all the bad shipping reviews! Mine were 6 orange like I ordered and were not leaky.It has a light orange scent not overpowering at all.I have been using Ecos Free & Clear and do not like it! It has great reviews but it left my husbands clothes like they still needed washed. I got this because I am still trying to find an affordable natural detergent that actually cleans! So my point is the shipping was fine and so is this product.

Imse Vimse Sanitary Pad Set Review

Imse Vimse Sanitary Pad Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These are the first cloth pads that I bought.I chose these because of the cost.They were much less expesive than other cloth pads that sell for $10.00 or more each.I first started using cloth pads when I was using cloth diapers for my kids.I was making my own cloth pads there for a while.I cut cloth diapers in half and sewed them in a pad shape.They worked well and were so much more comfortable than nasty plastic things.I figured I would find out if they even had such things as cloth pads.Well, they did and I was very happy to have found them.These were the best for the price.I also found a Diva cup, which is a mestrual cup that catches the flow.That is awesome, check it out.I use the Diva cup during my cycle and I use my cloth pads throughout the month because a have had kids which causes me to leak urine when I sneeze, laugh, run, pretty much anything.They really are great pads, easy to wash and take care of.I will never go back to using regualar pads again.If more women got over the idea of it being "gross" they would see how much better these pads are for themselves and the enviroment.

Method Laundry Detergent Free + Clear- 50 Loads, 20 Ounce Bottle Review

Average Reviews:

I've been a fan of Method's laundry soap for a while. I love the fact that it is easy on our environment, but I have to say, I also buy it because it is easy on my back. I lug my laundry up and down four flights of stairs to the basement of our apartment building. I really appreciate Method's focus on keeping the water and other fillers out of this soap.

I wasn't sure if I'd like the pump mechanism, but I do. I've done about 10 loads of laundry with this bottle and so far -- no drips and no leaks.

I do like fresh smelling laundry though. I'm going to try a scented kind of Method soap next time.

We have a baby and toddler both with eczema and otherwise sensitive skin. I needed a detergent that could clean all our clothes at once as I don't feel like doing kids clothes and parent's clothes separately. After a decision to switch to greener products, I bought this at my local CoOp to give it a trial run. Found it to clean all our clothes as well as any brand of conventional detergent I have used before (i.e. Tide, Kirtland's, and assorted baby detergents). Also, it rinses clean. I was happy to see it on Amazon.

I purchased this soap locally for 12.00 for one bottle, so the price on Amazon is several dollars cheaper per bottle!I make my own soap for the warm/hot water loads, and I use this for loads using cold water.It cleans just as well as the store brand I was using (Purex) and is easier on the environment and our clothes.It does not leave a residue, although I do have softened water.When I take the clothes out of the dryer (no need for softeners, as there are soy softeners in the product), my clothes just smell clean.Nothing artificial.The soap doesn't bubble and the water doesn't get slippery, but I know it's still working because my clothes come out clean.

Earth Friendly Products Dishmate, Liquid Dishwashing Cleaner, Natural Grapefruit, 25 Ounces (Pack of 12) Review

Earth Friendly Products Dishmate, Liquid Dishwashing Cleaner, Natural Grapefruit, 25 Ounces
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
After trying many "eco-friendly" products, especially dish liquids, I was becoming very disappointed.I was so chemically sensitive, I would often feel bad for the rest of the day if I spent much time in contact.The skin does absorb the chemical ingredients.I eventually figured out that the SLS or SLES(anything with lauryl or laureth or similar terms) were the ingredients that were making me spacy and fatigued.And they are right in there in many of the so-called healthy alternative detergents!

One company, Seventh Generation, uses flowery, eco-obfuscating language;they never tell you that their product actually contains sodium laureth sulfate (similar in structure to sulfuric acid), the cheapest of sudsing agents, which is found in almost all "mainstream" personal care items; dish detergent, body wash, shampoo, etc.

When I went to their website to complain, they replied that they use "a mix of functional descriptions and specific ingredients on...labels", to "allow us to refine formulas without the expense of having to reprint labels with each refinement".And just try to uncover from their website, what the actual ingredients are.I am admittedly not a computer genius (read brain fog), but it took an unreasonable amount of digging to uncover the ingredient list.

The point of my review here for Dishmate Liquid is, after I found it to be so body friendly that I could have prolonged contact without sensitivity symptoms, I decided to try it as a body wash (my skin was irritable no matter what I used to wash it).It was great!I no longer felt "bad" after taking a shower.It was only a matter of time before I tried it as a shampoo and, surprise, it doesn't hurt your eyes (as gentle as a baby shampoo), and my hair is beautiful!

I no longer buy any soaps, body washes or shampoo.I add a few drops of essential oil to diluted Ultra Dishmate as a hand and body wash.I have recommended (and gifted) this liquid to anyone I know with allergy, chemical sensitivity, or skin problems.

The best part of this is, since I have minimized contact with major sources of irritation, the entire chemical sensitivity problem has become much less prominent in my life.This Dishmate Liquid has actually improved my life!Try this.It may be a change for you too!

There are three BIG things that REALLY trouble me about this brand. And I can safely say that I've used them ALL. At one time, there was not much as far as choices, but FAR better sellers have come on the market. Here's my issues:

1 - Terribly inconsistent quality. I've gotten nice ones and others that I almost threw away. I had to pick human or animal hairs (I think both) and dirt out of one box. One time they were nice, clean and dry, another time they were totally gross and gummy. Obviously they are packaged overseas and quality control is horrible. Guess that's the result of cheap labor and less than clean working conditions. I believe they are also subject to being stored or shipped improperly. That may be why I've gotten such sticky "clumps" of soap nuts at times. Being sealed in cellophane may cause condensation build up. I don't know and I don't really care. I simply won't buy them anymore, have found a much better and reliable seller.

2 - Very UN-"GREEN". The cellophane bags, VERY heavily glossy printed boxes (don't think it is recycled), printed EVERYTHING! I thought soap nuts were a part of the green movement. Carbon footprint is something we look at. ALL my friends share this same sentiment. It's like a slap in the face. We are trying SO hard to live greener lives, and these are packaged like this????? It's like they don't care at all.

3 - RUDE!!!! Terrible, terrible, terrible service!!!! I don't even know if there is a Maggie in this company anymore. My intuition says "No", because whoever the MAN was that I called who referred to himself as the "owner" when I last talked to them spent more time bashing his competition than helping me with my VERY SIMPLE question!!! I was checking out all the main sellers to arrange a larger purchase for my church group. We were just trying to buy them cheaper. In the end, I just hung up on him - and that is not like me AT ALL. He didn't care one bit about what I wanted to know. All he wanted to talk about was why they were the best. I was astonished. Here is a QUOTE that I'll never forget, "We are the largest importer in the entire western hemisphere." LOL!!! Like I cared. My whole group only wanted a good simple price on 25 or 35 pounds. I'm really sorry, but the last time I talked to someone with a tone like this was a beer-bellied used car salesman trying to sell me on a piece of junk. Oh, I REALLY appreciated this "owner" telling me about his 1,000 pound minimum - while still bashing EVERYBODY - and AFTER - YES!!!! - AFTER - I had finally squeezed in all that I was looking for. It was unreal...

I'm giving this company TWO stars for two reasons only. They do sell soap nuts. That's one. There probably is a very cool person named Maggie somewhere that actually DID care about us and our environment. That's TWO - and that one is for her alone. Beyond that - ZIP!
