Keeping Holidays Merry & Bright

Day 15: EcoSense MelaPower

Because clean should never mean chemicals and my family’s clothes can stink after workout.
MelaPower is a plant-based nontoxic laundry detergent that is tough on stains and odor. I shouldn’t have to choose between clean, fresh-smelling laundry and my family’s wellness. That’s why I choose MelaPower. MelaPower is formulated with safer ingredients that clean clothes effectively, but it doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg!
It makes it easy keeping up with the laundry this holiday season.

$19.49 to clean 96 loads in the 9X concentrated bottle.

Working my magic

I was asked “can you do your magic on these”? while being shown a pair of filthy sneakers.
I love a good challenge!

It’s crazy to think that plants are this powerful! Twenty years ago I would have pulled out the Clorox and not thought twice about the warning label. Today I took a better Ecosense way and look at the results—they look new!
I’m so glad I found a safer way, to get the job done, without jeopardizing our health!

Making Your Holidays Merry and Bright

Day 4: Pre Spot Stain Remover

Because you have kids who play sports. Because you’re running a thousand miles an hour this holiday season and spills and stains happen.
PreSpot is a plant-based nontoxic spot treatment that gets all of the stains out, regularly.
It’s great to have on hand for quick clean ups. I carry a PreSpot stain stick in my purse at all times as I never know when I’m going to need it. I’ve watched red wine and blood stains disappear in front of my eyes with this little gem.

This year, everyone will be getting the PreSpot stain stick in their stockings!

$6.99 for the concentrate which makes two large spray bottles at a cost of $3.49 each.

“Dawn Dish Soap has not one but THREE ingredients that cause cancer. It smells as toxic as ever, especially once you haven’t used it for awhile.

Mrs. Meyers; The Honest Co.; Method; Burt’s Bees and Seventh Generation have all sold out to toxic big name brands who don’t give a rats behind about you. The companies: Branch Basics, Truly Free, and Ecos all have pending lawsuits.

Reason #696935 we shop where we do and have for 20 years: American made, won’t EVER sell out, and has never had a lawsuit or recall on any ingredient in 40 YEARS.

Think about it, $1.17 cleaners, $19 laundry detergent that lasts months, a $6 facial scrub, vitamins that actually absorb and work, and a company that really does care.”

Don’t you think it’s time you got on board?

Getting Comments Like This…Keeps Me talking…

Reaching out to help households find healthier, money saving, time saving, and better working is a joyful mission.
Today, I’m sharing what our Shopper Tina S. shared with us.
“Since today is laundry day, I thought I’d share what we’ve been using for many years. I get it from our online shopping club and it is amazing!
It uses a pump that is pre-measured so it takes all the guess work out of doing the laundry. It’s super concentrated, so you only need one third of an ounce per load which means I’m saving lots of money…and there aren’t any of the harsh chemicals to give us skin issues, breathing problems or make us sick.

I love this laundry line because of how affordable it is and how well it works. I cannot get enough of the scent either—the Lavender scent is my favorite.
I will never go back to those other brands EVER!
It costs only $19.49 for 96 loads which makes me One Happy Shopper!

Laundry factoid

Did you know that 90% of the energy used for a load of laundry comes from heating the water? Not washing the laundry—heating the water!
Luckily for me, my favorite non-toxic laundry detergent is designed to work in any water temperature, so ! can wash my things in cold tap water and save around $22 to $25 per month on my electric bill. Not to mention my non-toxic detergent is also a lot less expensive than Tide, and you only need a small amount per load.
Like I always say, some swaps just make life easier—better for your home, your wallet, and the planet!

Just thought I would share

These jeans were filthy! Would they ever come clean?
See for yourself.
I pre-treated with Pre-Spot and then gave them a good spray with my fabulous all-purpose cleaner, Soul-U-Mel, and then two pumps of Mountain Fresh Mela Power!
I think it worked. I love these products!

What is affecting your skin?

Before I started my healthy journey, I was oblivious at the fact that everything added to the laundry wash and dry cycle is ABSORBED into our skin.
Thinking about that makes my skin crawl…especially after recently hearing about the cancer-causing toxins found in Aveeno and Neutrogena products.
My laundry soap, scent booster, stain remover, bleach alternative, fabric softener and dryer sheets from my online shopping club are all eco-friendly,
non-toxic and scented only with essential oils!
I will never judge anyone else’s choices, because I am far from perfect. but I will try to encourage you to join me in trying to do better. If I could encourage you to swap one item to a safer alternative I would start with your laundry line. Detergent, fabric softener, melaboost, and dryer sheets!

A better way to shop

I can’t share this often enough. I think it’s the best, You see, it only takes one pump per load. This petite container? It does 96 loads.
No junk ingredients. No fillers and it’s highly concentrated.
It’s also the only stuff I will use for products that touch my family member’s skin! Smells heavenly and is excellent on hard stains!
Every month of the year every dollar counts.

Tide — .42 cents a load.

Dreft — .41 cents a load.

Melapower — .20 cents a load.

Works better too. What more can I say?

Are Your Children Snuggling with Toxins?

Did you know toxins can be found in many brand name Fabric Softeners:?
