If you've been reading this blog for a while, you know I get totally excited over green products. I have a feeling that if I ever became a hoarder, I'd be exclusively a green product hoarder, because I love them so much. So when EcoStore USA contacted me about doing a review of two products, I was thrilled. I checked out their website, and they have all sorts of choices - baby items, pet items, bath and beauty, and household. I decided on liquid laundry detergent (seeing as how my life seems to revolve around doing laundry) and coconut vanilla hand wash.
The products arrived in environmentally friendly packing - even the boxes are made from recycled paper.
Both of the products I chose are plant based, not tested on animals, and do not contain any nasty chemicals.
The hand soap has such a mild scent - not overpowering at all. Just the softest of smells.
Pierce actually really took to it.
Took to it so much that he used almost half the bottle in 2 days and I had to hide it from him.
I have to say - it's very moisturizing (but not in a sticky way) so I can understand the appeal - it makes for soft hands.
The laundry detergent I picked is for sensitive skin. Cort is prone to eczema, so we have to be careful about detergents. I came back from Type A Conference to find piles of laundry. I thought I might never catch up, to be truthful. The liquid detergent had the softest of scents, undetectable unless you hold the clothing right to the nose and sniff deeply. I like that. I'm not crazy about fresh linen smells, so it was nice that this wasn't heavily scented.
My colors were bright when taken out. I dried the clothes in the dryer with dryer balls in lieu of a dryer sheet. The clothing all came out very soft and there was no static whatsoever. And I'm very happy to report that the detergent has caused no irritation for Cort's delicate skin.
I hope you'll check out EcoStore USA. I was really pleased with the products I tried and love knowing that I'm not harming the environment or my boys when I use them.
I was provided with two products of my choice from EcoStores USA to write a review. The opinions expressed here are completely my own.
Thank you for sharing your opinion of these products. I have sensitive skin and I don't like heavily scented detergents either! I'm for anything that makes laundry day more pleasant!
ReplyDeletegood review!
ReplyDeleteyour blog frog conference experience sounds like a really good time too --- your photos of food always make me hungry, even at 6 in the morning : )
I am totally ordering both of these products. Thanks for a great review.

This sounds great! I love that he loved the soap. We go through lots of it here too.
ReplyDeleteEcoStore USA sounds like a great company. I will definitely be visiting their site. The hand soap sounds really nice, and I think you might have to hide it from me too:)
ReplyDeleteGreat review, Lisa. I can totally relate to having sensitive skin. It's no fun. Glad you found some products that Pierce can tolerate. :)
ReplyDeleteThe coconut vanilla hand soap sounds just divine! I will have to check out the website.
ReplyDeleteGood info to know once again, baby Girl! Thanks...:)JP
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful you found a product you all like.
ReplyDeleteWow sounds like great products! I am all about natural products and love all natural laundry detergents.
ReplyDeleteI can related to having a boy who likes to wash his hands and uses all the soap up in a day or two! lol It must be a boy thing! hehehe
ReplyDeleteI too have to watch the type of laundry detergent I use around here because of all of our delicate skins. I'm always afraid to try a new brand because of that. I just might have to give that a try!
Have a Great Day!
