There are a lot of people who are going chemically free because they think it is the “in thing.” chemically free is a lifestyle choice not a fad. It is something that makes you aware of what you are putting into your body and brining into your home. I find myself reading product labels more, connecting with local artisans/farms, and my body benefits. I started going chemical free after I had my pulmonary embolism in 2009. My PE made me reevaluate what I was putting into my body. The FDA claims the NuvaRing is safe, thou 3800 women will tell you that it’s not. I started to wonder “if my birth control is capable of killing me, what else is deadly and what can I do to get rid of it?” Right then and there I pulled out my soap box and started my chemically free journey.
Enter in amazing companies like Ms. Meyer, Method, J.R. Watkins, Lush, Sabon, and my recent favorite The Honest Company. I hands down love The Honest Company and their amazing product line. All of the honest products come in cute packaging and smell like heaven. Best of all each product is free of the witches brew better known as formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is terrible terrible shit that is in a lot of cleaning and body care products. It’s even sprayed on clothes to reduce wrinkles in shipping. Formaldehyde has been linked to birth defects, cancer, and a whole crazy ton of health problems. It’s for a corpse not a living breathing human.

“What did I get in my Honest Co. Essential Bundle?” OH! I am so glad you asked! Let’s find out!
Honest Bathroom Cleaner:Easily eliminate soap scum, rust, hard water stains, & other pesky nasties with our non-toxic bathroom grime fighter. Natural tea tree oil actually prevents build-up!
—————-> I am willing to admit that I totally look forward to cleaning my bathroom now. The cleaner smells amazing, it cuts through dried on tooth paste, and tells soap scum to hit the curb. Hello, super honestly clean bathroom!
Honest Floor Cleaner: Powerful, natural 4-in-1 formula for all your floor care needs. Designed to safely break down grease, food, bacteria & dirt – will not damage wax or other protective coatings.
—————-> I used to use harsh cleaners on my floor. That is until one day I spied the muppet like dog strolling on my wet floors and then saw him licking his paws. Paws that were full of chemically laced floor cleaner. That can’t be good for my little guy so I switched to organic cleaners. Non of impressed me as much as the Honest Floor cleaner, it cut through dirt like a hot knife on butter. Did I mention it smells like rosemary and sage? Oh it does, it does my friend, and I love it!
Honest Face + Body Lotion: is an Organic olive, shea, jojoba & safflower oils hydrate & restore skin’s natural moisture balance.
——————> This lotion is awesome! It is light and not greasy. It absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth.
Honest Bubble Bath: Ideal for the daily bath routine – will NOT dry, irritate, or cause tears. A light, refreshing tangerine scent gently calms and relaxes you.
—————> I love a good tub over flowing with bubbles. I love good smelling bubbles even more and this fits the bill perfectly. You only need a little bit to get a tub full of bubbly fun.
Honest Dish Towels:Towels are 100% organic cotton, extra soft & absorbent.
——————-> They are dish towels and they do exactly what a dish towel is meant to do, dry my dishes.
Honest Liquid Laundry Detergent: Naturally clean stubborn stains & life’s unexpected messes without toxic chemicals or synthetic scents. Perfect for babies & sensitive skin and ALL your laundry needs.
————————–> I used the laundry detergent for the first time this weekend and all I have to say is “Wow!” I never knew my clothes could be this clean. It literally cleaned stains from hand towels that have been set in for months. So long Tide, Hello Honest Co.
Honest Oxy Boost Pods: The extra BOOST for your in-wash cleaning — naturally-derived ingredients use oxygen for destaining & deodorizing — attacking & breaking down stains, grease, and dirt.
————————> I loved that the pods dissolved quickly in the water and that they did not leave a powdery residue on my clothes. My clothes were visibly brighter. I used the pods in conjunction with the liquid laundry detergent. In my mind they are a perfect pair and should be in everyone’s laundry routine.
Honest Wet Dryer Cloths: the eco-friendly “WET” Dryer Cloths naturally infuse plant-based softeners directly into fabrics as they dry. Enjoy soft, static-free laundry without toxic scents!
———————–> What got me hooked was the fact that you can get two uses out of each cloth. Two uses folks, how cool is that. Out of a 32 cloth pack you get 64 loads of laundry. That is something to smile at. The cloths left my sheets feeling super soft. I loved the fact that when I reached into the dryer I was not greeted with an over baring perfume smell. Instead I just got really clean laundry.
I loved every product I got in my essential bundle and I am now an Honest Company fan girl for life. I can’t wait to try more products in the Honest Company Line. My goal is to try every single one, even if it means I have to borrow my niece.
