GreenShield Organic: A New Way to Clean

I’ll admit it: Cleaning is not one of my favorite activities! Not just because it’s a never-ending chore, but because many cleaners actually make me feel sick. All of the harsh chemicals, perfumes and dyes cause itching, sneezing, watery eyes, and sometimes can give me a rash. (Nice, huh?)

Because of that, I have to be extremely careful about the products used in my home. There are many recipes for homemade cleaners and that’s a good option for those who have the time/interest. Personally, I just want to spray and go, but it has to be safe for me, the kids, and pets. In the past, I’ve tried a lot of so-called natural stuff, “green” products, fragrance free, additive free, etc. The problem is that anything gentle enough for skin tends to be too weak to eliminate dirt. (Talk about a complicated dilemma!)

GreenShield Organic offers a solution. With a tagline like “All the clean without the mean,” they seem to understand where I’m coming from. Every product they make adheres to the strictest standards:

Toxin free
Synthetic free
gluten free
GMOs free
no animal by-products or testing
USDA certified organic
Plant based ingredients

GreenShield Organic goes one step further to ensure that even the bottles are healthy; they’re made using renewable and sustainable sugar cane.

For the past week, I’ve been giving these products a try. Since we’re expecting holiday guests soon, I want everything to be extra polished and shiny, especially in common areas like the kitchen and bathroom. I’m happy to report that routine cleaning like wiping down counters/mirrors and washing windows was a breeze! Deep cleans and extra dusty/dirty places like baseboards did require some extra scrubbing, but that’s typical no matter what product is used. GreenShield Organics also makes laundry detergent that I’ve ever heard works wonderfully, but I didn’t personally test it, so I can’t say for sure.

Out of everything I sampled, my favorite has to be the Baby Liquid Dish Soap. Bottles become so gross and grimy—not to mention smelly!—with repeated use. I love how well this soap cleans without being harsh on my hands. I didn’t even have to wear gloves.
