I’ve been pretty fortunate these last couple weeks and I’ve gotten to try a few really great eco-friendly products. I thought I would share them with you.
First up is White Cloud Green Earth toilet paper and paper towels. The Green Earth paper products are made from 100% recycled fibers! I told my mom I was using “recycled toilet paper” and she didn’t think that sounded so great. LOL. But I rephrased to “toilet paper made from recycled paper” and she wasn’t so grossed out. I think the toilet paper works as well as any other toilet paper. I mean, it all does the job the same as far as I’m concerned. So I was perfectly happy with it. On the other hand, the paper towels are not very soft. I am used to spending big bucks on Viva, and the White Cloud wasn’t nearly as soft. But in a house full of kids and spills, this brand worked just as well at cleaning up messes. I just wouldn’t use it for faces or cleaning your glasses. But seriously, for wiping your butt and cleaning up Vaseline from the back of your dog, the White Cloud Green Earth brand is great. And you can get it cheap at Wal Mart. YAY.
These next items I’m really excited about! I am a HUGE candle lover. I used to sell PartyLite candles and it’s very rare that I burn anything else. But when The Fragrance Collection by Glade samples showed up at my door, I was pleasantly surprised. They are soy wax candles made with over 90% natural ingredients. They use all cotton wicks and are fragranced with pure essential oils. I have the “earthly awakening” scent burning in my kitchen and the scent throw is really impressive. My whole house smells yummy. I love that Glade is recognizing the consumers desire for these safer, less toxic candles.
Finally, I love Envirosax. They are a company making designer, re-usable shopping bags that are a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e. I like them so much, I tried to get them to host a giveaway here so I could really show you how great they were. Unfortunately, we didn’t get anything set up. But the next best thing to hosting a giveaway here, is them hosting a giveaway there! On Earth Day (tomorrow, in case you hadn’t noticed) they will launch their new Planet Green series of bags. Wednesday only, if you purchase one of their 5 in 1 pouch sets, you will be intered into a drawing for one of 20 new Planet Green bags! Cool, eh? I think so. Go visit Envirosax.com for all the details.
So there is my cool green roundup of products for today. If I find any more, I’ll be sure to let you know.
