Who wants to save money cleaning their home? Yep, I know – everyone is raising their hand! Here’s the deal – making your own homemade cleaning products is not only good for your budget, but amazing for your health too!
I began looking at the ingredients in my cleaning products about three years ago as I started seeing great improvements in my health when I began eliminating chemicals in my diet, my personal care products, and cleaning products.
Pull out the products in your pantry and take a look at the ingredients and see how they rate on EWG – the Environmental Working Group. This is stuff you will want to know!
I do feel confident and empowered knowing that when I make my own products, I can control what goes in and limit my exposure to ingredients I don’t want.
My standard cleaning mix in my house is the amazing and versatile Thieves Household Cleaner from Young Living – but when I need some specialized cleaning or feel like mixing things up, I use some of these family-friendly recipes.
