Oh, is this time of the year again. Weather getting nicer, putting our winter coats away and taking our fresh skirts out of the storage.
With Spring already here, it is also time to make our home fresher, by opening windows and doing a nice-deep cleaning.
Let me start saying that small changes can make a big difference. And switching your cleaning product is a great start! You really don't have to go crazy and change every single item in your home (who could do that!?), but taking small steps will be a huge help for our planet and our health.

This is probably the first (and easiest) step you should take. And since it's time for "Spring Cleaning" I thought it would be appropriate to share this with you!
I know many of you might be thinking that natural products won't work as good as traditional ones. But as you may know I own and run a cleaning company in NYC and efficiency is just as important for us!
Also, it really doesn't have to cost more, actually if you choose the right ones they might even be much cheaper and the impact in our health is amazing. Once you switch them you will notice your skin looks better, no more allergies, no fake perfumes, just plain clean smelling.
My favorite cleaning products are Get Clean from Shaklee.
Tip: If you really like scented products add a few drops of organic essential oil and voila!

Get some microfiber cloths. This is a win-win, works better than paper towels, since they are washable and re-usable you will save money and less trash to landfills :)
Tip: You can throw them in the washer machine, just don't put them in the dryer. They will loose the efficiency overtime.
Get natural rubber cleaning gloves and natural sponges. They are biodegradable and, again, they are not more expensive than the regular ones :)
Tip: Hang them like in the picture below so they can air dry and prevent mildew inside.
How about you, did you switch to natural, organic cleaning products yet? Which are your favorite?
