Seventh Generation Liquid Dish Detergent, Free & Clear, 48-Ounce Bottles (Case of 6) Review

Seventh Generation Liquid Dish Detergent, Free and Clear, 48-Ounce Bottles (Case of 6)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Overall, it is a pretty good dishwashing liquid. It doesnt give me dishpan hands and it smells neutral, I never notice anything.
I have many many many allergies to common stuff, so it was nice to find something that I could use and not sneeze or get a rash. All the "natural" Ivory, etc. soaps are just another name for a new smell that sounds better but still makes me allergic but costs more.
It is a little odd, but I use this as a shampoo as well. I am allergic to every shampoo I've tried (over 60+) and seen my 4th dermatologist (allergy specialist in NY recently) who was not able to suggest anything else. I use an off the shelf conditioner (Earth Science) for people with allergies.
While I dont value this aspect highly, it does make me feel good to use such a "earth focused" product.
NOTE:
I dont think gets rid of grease like regular $1 Ajax, but it is much better than most of the other alternatives. At least this has suds, and will cut the grease eventually.

Seventh Generation Liquid Dish Detergent is powerful enough to get your dishes sparkling clean, yet gentle on your hands and the Earth. Made completely free of any irritating or harmful scents, this dish detergent is made with the well-being of you and the Earth in mind.
Completely Natural Cleaning Power for Your Dishes Seventh Generation Liquid Dish Detergent is tough on dirt and grease while being completely free of chlorine, ammonia, strong acids, and petroleum-based ingredients. This biodegradable, non-toxic dish detergent is made from a combination of naturally derived cleaning agents (coconut-based surfactants) and natural whole plant essences that will clean your dishes without leaving any harmful residues behind.
Non-toxic, biodegradable, hypo-allergenic, Kosher-certified and phosphate-free, this gently scented Seventh Generation Dish Detergent is safe for septic and gray water systems and has never been tested on animals.
Why Clean Naturally? Unlike many conventional dish detergents, the Seventh Generation Liquid Dish Detergent does not create unpleasant fumes, will not leave harmful residues, and is safer for the environment. Plant-derived cleaners are made from renewable resources rather than from petroleum. Studies show that making household cleaners from plant-derived materials uses less energy than making the same cleaners from petroleum. Using less energy helps reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.
If every household in the U.S. replaced just one 25-ounce bottle of petroleum based dishwashing liquid with this plant-derived product, we could save 86,000 barrels of oil--enough to heat and cool 4,900 U.S. homes for a year!Free & Clear of Fragrances--Because You Want it That Way Our sense of smell is powerful and evocative. Experiencing a scent unfold can transform our mood, transport us to distant places, or connect us through a shared experience. But many people are sensitive to fragrances or dyes, or prefer unscented products. This Free & Clear Dish detergent is made entirely without fragrances. Many conventional products call their products "free," but in fact mask the smell of their surfactants (detergents) with added fragrances. Seventh Generation products are truly free and clear of added fragrances, and have been confirmed to be hypo-allergenic through independent testing.
About Seventh Generation Seventh Generation offers a complete line of natural household products designed to work as well as their traditional counterparts, but use renewable, non-toxic, phosphate-free, and biodegradable ingredients as often as possible, and are never tested on animals. Seventh Generation products are healthy and safe for the air, the surfaces, the pets, and the people in your home--and for the environment outside of it. Every time you use Seventh Generation products you make a difference by saving natural resources, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment, and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations.

Planet Ultra Dishwashing Liquid, 25 Fluid Ounce Bottles ((Pack of 12)) Review

Planet Ultra Dishwashing Liquid, 25 Fluid Ounce Bottles ((Pack of 12))
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the only dishwashing liquid I've found that doesn't irritate my skin at all. It doesn't smell like chemicals or cheap fragrance; in fact, it has very little scent. It's certified biodegradable and environmentally friendly, since its basic ingredients are coconut oil and salt. (It breaks down into carbon dioxide, basic minerals, and water.) Even the bottle is environmentally friendly, made from 50% recycled resin. The product is not tested on animals, either.
So why do I give it only 4 stars? Well, it's not very powerful. You have to use maybe two or three times more of it to clean the same amount of dishes.
Nevertheless, I was thrilled to find this product, because I had tried literally every other brand and was desperate to find a way to wash dishes without breaking out in a rash up to my elbows. I've been using this brand for quite a few years and have never had any reaction to it.

I purchased this soap locally for 12.00 for one bottle, so the price on Amazon is several dollars cheaper per bottle! I make my own soap for the warm/hot water loads, and I use this for loads using cold water. It cleans just as well as the store brand I was using (Purex) and is easier on the environment and our clothes. It does not leave a residue, although I do have softened water. When I take the clothes out of the dryer (no need for softeners, as there are soy softeners in the product), my clothes just smell clean. Nothing artificial. The soap doesn't bubble and the water doesn't get slippery, but I know it's still working because my clothes come out clean.

What is a massage candle? Light the candle and burn it for 15+ minutes to enjoy the wonderful scent. Extinguish the flame, then use it as a warm massage oil. One of the benefits of using Greenfire Candles for massage is that the warm oily wax soothes dry skin: Greenfire's premium and unique blend of all-natural vegetable and soy waxes is vastly saturated with Vitamin E. Use Greenfire candles for their healing purposes. They're perfect for foot massages. Greenfire's wax blend is the safest and most luxurious wax on the market. Premium, food-grade ingredients and the wax's low melting point mean the product is entirely skin-safe and warm to the touch. The vitamin E will absorb into skin, leaving it luxuriously soft and fully renewed. The uses of Greenfire Candles are endless! Light before you get in the shower, then use it on your feet, elbows, and/or legs afterward. Keep a small candle in your purse and use the unmelted wax as lip balm or to soothe mosquito bites. Light one to set a mood, then use the wax with your partner to trade massages. Have a spa party and light several scents, letting each participant try their favorite after a manicure or pedicure. Or simply use them to lightly and perfectly scent a room, knowing the wax and lead-free wick are safe and toxin-free, unlike petroleum-based paraffin candles or other candles that use lead in the wicks. Please read instructions on the bottom of the candle prior to use. Burn time: One ounce burns about 8 to 10 hours. Tins are made from partially recycled materials. All tins are food-grade and 100% recyclable or reusable. We have special prices for wedding and party packages. Call or email for inquiries.

method Hand Wash Review

I am a big fan of Method products. I use or have used virtually every product they make. They are effective and are consistently good. This hand soap is no different.
Granted, hand soap is not an exciting product. So why am I spending time writing a review on hand soap? Well, this soap is clearly a winner, and having no reviews, I had to sing it's praises.
Like all Method products, the ingredients are mild -- no string chemicals or odors.

It is indeed moisturizing. Not only does it clean, but it does leave your hands feeling soft. The fragrance is soft and does not linger on your hands but for a moment. I really do not like when the scent of a hand soap lingers on your skin well after you have lathered up. This is not the case here, or with any of the other Method hand soaps. As for the fragrance .... it truly smells like a lovely marriage of coconut and honey.
In case you are interested, the soap is a frosted off white -- same color as the canister.
The canister is has a nice shape, but some may think it awkward to hold; although you really don't need to hold a hand wash. It also compliments any decor.
Another bonus: like the majority of Method's product line, this soap is made here in the good old USA!

Shave Cream Coconut Lime 8 Ounces Review

Shave Cream Coconut Lime 8 Ounces
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was immediately impressed by the pleasant sensation of coconut lime cream on my skin. It's a sensation welcome during the hot days of summer, maybe not so appealing on cold winter mornings. My bathroom is colder than the rest of the house, and as a result the Alba usually goes on cold. I've even gone as far as running hot water over the tube to warm it.
The coconut aroma of this variety is so fabulous, one is almost tempted to taste it.
As with the Mango Vanilla formula, I enjoyed a smooth, close shave using the Coconut Lime Alba. The razor glided across my face almost effortlessly, resulting in an uncommonly close shave. I can't say that all shaves with this cream have been without nicks or cuts, but I've lost considerably less blood with Alba than I have with some of my bargain creams .
I prefer squeezing the shave cream out of a tube than using the conventional foam pressurized can because I feel I am better able to control the amount coming out of the container. A container of Alba lasts a long time too.
I've been very pleased with my Alba Coconut Lime shaving experiences and look forward to trying additional creams in the Alba family.

I used these as centerpieces to float hibiscus. They looked great, but the water leaks after about 20 mins. Definitely not meant to hold liquids. I used them later to hold flowers, napkins, cottonballs and they looked fantastic.

Greenfire candles are awesome! They smell wonderful and they are safe to burn. And they work awesome for massages, too. I have tested many of the scents at Greenfire's booth at Seattle craft fairs, and they're all great, but Plumeria is my favorite. I have a couple sizes in Plumeria, and even the small one scents my whole living room in no time, but it's light -- not overpowering. I have several Greenfire candles and they burn for a long time, too. I don't buy any other kind/brand of candle any more!

After trying out a Greenfire soy candle (discovered in a gift bag at a convention) I recently purchased a few of these assorted packages, one for myself, and one as a gift for my neice. Really an excellent and very interesting product, not just a candle, and that's not even the primary use of it. I would put these more into the category of skin care products. The wax melts easily and so isn't hot, then absorbs into the skin in a different and more effective way than lotion does. Great for gifts, or if you just have very dry skin like me.
